Our genes contribute remarkably to our physical look. And these genes will pass from one generation to the next, and each family member is a product of the genetic composition. Surprisingly, children sometimes don’t inherit the genes directly from their moms and dads. That means some children don’t resemble their parents but their grandparents.
Some grandchildren are spitting images of their famous grandparents. Charlotte Casiraghi, for instance, who is Grace Kelly’s granddaughter, looks like her grandmom instead of her parents. Charlie Chaplin and Oona Chaplin are also worth-mentioning. They are grandpa and granddaughter, who are doppelgangers! Interestingly, these grandchildren are never famous for resembling their parents. Genetic inheritance is so incredible!
Below are 15 grandchildren who are their grandparents’ double. Let's scroll down and leave your opinion in the comment section!
