DNA Shocker: Couple’s 23andMe Results Reveal a Life-Changing Secret!

[@elaine8013]

If you're Puerto Rican then you already know we're a blend of white, black and indigenous. It's a given.

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

More Spain, African and Taino

[@soniamt61]

Not always is like that!

[@Banyo__]

For the life of me, IN GENERAL, I don't really understand if people studied even basic history, how they are always like OH MY GOD, I have African in me, how is that even possible. Slave trade was a large horrible global affair, and ports were in America, Europe, Africa, South America, all these places. A lot of slaves were taken advantage of, and there was of course a lot of mixing of cultures/races by choice after, so it shouldn't be this huge surprise. It's nice to see someone celebrate it. I think whatever your make-up, and however you came to be, it should be something to celebrate, even if it came from rough circumstances, because it's who we are, it's how we all got here, and it's a part of us. Thanks for sharing your genetic story. So many places around the world, it's beautiful.

[@jerrilynhenson9024]

I was unhappy that no African showed up in me. However I did show Neanderthal. ❤

[@alexhidell8022]

Wait until you read about the Arab slave trade along the east African coast

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

Yes I love celebrating knowing my mix

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

That’s cool

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

Really?

[@gabriellelee7119]

Your dna is all over the world. Just beautiful! I can't wait to get my dna results. I'm American mix with Asian & Latino. Great vid. 🥰

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

Good luck!! Share your results with us.

[@viflower3502]

Love how exciting you guys were to find out your DNA compositions! I did mine as well with 23 and me....truly a life changer.

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

Yes indeed. It gives a sense of belonging

[@tiktok11150]

Alex, you may want to watch a history video of the Moors invasion of Portugal to understand the link to North Africa- Morocco.

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

Where can I find it I will definitely watch

Solo de Portugal que no existía, vaya chiste jajajaja

[@kemetnubiakamp]

Among even Colombus journeys were Moriscos who were Moors, often mixed North African and Spaniard but also Arab/Arab-Spaniard mixed, who converted to Christianity. It was Portugal, Spain, and Sicily were Africans has ruled from 711 to 1492. The Black people who remained were those who converted to Christianity. Your Senegambia DNA also is likely from that same North African source.​@@RodriguezPadillafamily

Also, You Guys Should Try AncestryDNA Test To, So You Know What Years Your Ancestors Came To The Islands, Came To Spain 🇪🇸, Came To Mexico 🇲🇽, And Came To America 🇺🇸 To.

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

Really I didn’t know it went into that much detail

[@dianapulido1807]

You guys have to remember the history of both Spain and the Spanish Colonies. Spain was ruled by the Moors (Arabs from Northern African) for around 400 years. When the Spanish colonized the Americas, there was a lot of moving back and forth also there was a lot of moving back and forth in the Mediterranean so it's not unusual for someone from Spain to have DNA that is found in Sicily and for someone in Sicily to have DNA that is found in Spain. I actually know a guy who is Italian American whose third or fourth grandfather was from Spain and moved to Sicily. Also, trace amounts could be missreads and unassigned means that they can't pinpoint where that DNA is from. Remember the regions where your DNA is from is a scientifically educated estimate now your DNA relatives are related to you because they share segments of the same DNA and those are accurate. So as someone who was adopted, please, if someone who is trying to find out who they are, help them but be careful because if they are genuine, they will not ask for money.

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

Great to hear all the history

[@user-ft9tf5tw6l]

Fast forward to 8:00 to avoid watching people spit in tubes.

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

Thank you for letting them know

[@simplyp5521]

Life changing? I was expecting a DNA surprise lol congrats

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

Well it was a surprise for me.

[@simplyp5521]

@@RodriguezPadillafamily🤣🤣🤣 I’m a DNA surprise. I can’t wait to match with a sibling. My birth parents are being secretive and I don’t want to blow their (siblings)world up.

[@Myraisins1]

Very nice!

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

Thanks

[@jerrilynhenson9024]

I did 23&me, also ancestry and My Heritage. Just for fun. ❤❤

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

What were your results.

[@jerrilynhenson9024]

@ Norwegian, English, German, some Finnish, Irish…Neanderthal…🤷‍♀️. A smorgasbord…

[@HEIDIBrayInMaine]

Awwww you guys are so cute I love that you are so sweet

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

Thank you! We appreciate it

[@porkchop0711]

That was cool mine only had very few places I'm from

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

Wow, 🤯 I was surprise with ours.

[@mildreddiaz6435]

Indigenous also comes from Dominican Republic especially if you come from Santiago.

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

All the islands in the Caribbean had Taínos

[@pollyannaprinciple5860]

Loved the explanation of your results. How interesting.

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

Thank you!

[@angyliv8040]

No comentáis nada de España y Portugal y es el porcentaje más grande, no sé raro. Me hubiera gustado saber de que regiones.

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

Pronto are un video de eso

[@yayarosales]

Sounds like you guys are mostly European. We did ours, and it also said a lot of European. Also, the Nigerian. We all got that, and Mali. Its exciting to do them. Dont do My Heritage, that one is false. Of all we did, that one was way off with countries that are not possible.

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

That’s amazing and exiting to see

[@yayarosales]

@@RodriguezPadillafamily it really is!

[@christinaeilers3562]

Interesting!😊

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

I think so too!

Don’t they teach history in USA?? 🇨🇦🤔

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

They do

[@catherinerivas5435]

I think it is stupid when people act so racist by being excited about the African, but not the European.

[@ldsweettee]

I don't think they're trying to be racist. It's usually a given with having European blood if you know the history in the americas and the Caribbean. A lot of the Spanish speaking people of the americas don't acknowledge their african ancestry or talk about it. I think the excitement is just validation of something they may have thought but was unsure.

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

European was a given for me. I wanted to know the rest how is that raciest.

[@valeriedean3139]

​@@RodriguezPadillafamily It's not racist. This person is ignorant and uneducated. You are entitled to highlight the info in your report however you want. You two are the cutest couple, ever.

[@jenniferbond5771]

Indigenous native is Mongolian

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

Taino for us

[@azborderlands]

STOP throwing the “Mongolian” label around. Totally UNFOUNDED. I have yet to see it with any Native indigenous people.

[@ghettomelody]

@@azborderlands the ancestry test can only trace back origins for 500 years. Perhaps in the future when it can trace back 3,000 years it may show authentic oriental origins.

[@lance9249]

Claps about African but not European 🙄

[@RodriguezPadillafamily]

I was expecting high European.

[@InspiredByEbonyLove]

But why would a colonized people who whose non-white ancestors were RAPED by Europeans be applauding it, knowing it would be there anyway ???? Make that 💩 make sense

[@louwren429]

Why is that a problem?
