Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid meet their distant relatives!

Do you ever wonder where you come from? Forget straight family trees - in a modern twist millions of people around the world have undergone DNA tests to find out more.

Not only did we find out the ethnic makeup of our presenters, but this morning Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid met their matches, literally.

Piers discovered he's a descendent of Robert the Bruce, who was the King of Scotland from 1306 to 1329. He also found out his genetic makeup consists of 91 percent Irish/ Scottish/ Welsh, 6.5 percent Eastern European, 1.6 percent West Asian and 0.8 percent Middle Eastern.

The surprises didn’t stop there, Susanna found out her wide 'exotic' DNA mix consists of 35 percent Irish/ Scottish/ Welsh, 17 percent English, 14 percent Scandinavian, 17 percent Eastern European and 18 percent Iberian.

Plus, as an added bonus, we even had the pleasure of meeting Susanna’s doppelgänger!
