As the news of Kathy Hochul being a governor has circulated pretty fast, rumors about her being the stepsister of Nancy Pelosi is spreading.
After the resignation of the former governor of New York Cuomo, Kathy Hochul is set to become the next governor. In fact, she will become the first female governor of New York when this happens.
However, it is not this news only that has surprised people. Apparently, there is a rumor among the people that Kathy Hochul and Nancy Pelosi are actually stepsisters and are related.
So, here is further information on the rumor and after reading this article you will know if the rumors are true or false.
Is Kathy Hochul Related To Pelosi?
If you were expecting it to be true, then, sorry but Kathy Hochul is not related to Pelosi at all.
In fact, both of them come from entirely different families and are not related to each other. There is no idea why people thought this way but it is clear that Hochul and Pelosi are not stepsisters and are not related by any means.
Pelosi had only one sibling and that was his late brother Thomas D’Alesandro III. Pelosi and his brother were born to their parents, Thomas D’Alesandro Jr. and Annunciata Nancy D’Alesandro.
Pelosi’s parents got married in 1928 and stayed together until Thomas (Pelosi’s father) died in 1987, as reported by Snopes.
Kathy Hochul Family And Siblings
Kathy Hochul was born as one of six children to her parents Jack and Patricia Courtney.
Similarly, when Hochul’s mother, Patricia died in 2014, her obituary reported that she was staying with her husband Jack. This indicates the impossibility of Kathy to have any step-parent as her parents lived together since getting married.
And since Kathy didn’t have any stepparent, there is no way that she can have a stepsister.
Likewise, the same applies in the case of Pelosi as well since she also didn’t have any step-parent. Thus, we can clearly say that Kathy Hochul and Pelosi are not stepsisters and are not related to each other.
