Question
Are Audrey and Katharine Hepburn related? And if they are, how so. If you aren,t sure do you know where I could look for this information
Hello Erika,
No, the two Hepburns were not related.
Hepburn was not Audrey's real name. She was born ANDREY KATHLEEN RUSTON in Brussels, Belgium on May 4th 1929.
KATHERINE HOUGHTON HEPBURN was born on May 12th 1907 in Hartford, Connecticut.
Katherine was related to actress Katharine Houghton, her niece, and the two worked together in the film "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner" (1967).
Glad to be of help. Cheers...........Mel.
