Quinn Tivey – Elizabeth Taylor’s Grandson
While more than half a century separates Hollywood icon film actress Elizabeth Taylor from her grandson, Quinn Tivey, there is no question that they share the same blood. Taylor’s grace and accomplishments come as no surprise, even all over the world. Known to stand out by her bold violet eyes, Taylor’s unusual shade was way before the era of colored contacts. Her violet eyes were completely natural as were her two-rowed eyelashes–both due to a rare genetic mutation. Taylor married seven times and passed away in 2011 at the age of 79. Good looks certainly didn’t skip a generation for grandson Quinn, who was named a trustee of the Elizabeth Taylor Aids Foundation. Quinn is the son of Liza Todd, Taylor’s only child.

Steven R. McQueen – Steve McQueen’s Grandson
American action star Steve McQueen lured fans to the box office during the 60s and 70s with his handsome looks and sheer talent. Best known for appearing in The Magnificent Seven, The Great Escape, and The Towering Inferno, McQueen was the highest-paid movie star in 1974. In 1980, the actor died from mesothelioma, a cancer which can be traced to asbestos exposure. McQueen married twice and had two children. Steven R. McQueen, the star’s grandson certainly inherited some acting genes as he is best known for his appearance on The Vampire Diaries.
