In case you're wondering what's going on, the above video was posted to Celina Quinones TikTok page and went viral.
She is a real estate agent and thought it would be funny to share the shocking discovery she made ten years into her marriage.
It all began after she started piecing together their family tree. She took a DNA test and the results revealed that Celina and her husband Joseph were cousins.
"After reading the results, Celina admits she began doubting whether she and Joseph should be together.
"I was in shock. I was a little depressed over it, to be honest. But this was after we already had three kids, and all of them were healthy," says Celina of the couple's two sons, ages 15 and 13, and their 10-year-old daughter. "They have 10 fingers, 10 toes, but it was just a shock." (People Magazine)

"Joseph was like, 'Babe, don't worry about it. It's not a big deal. Just brush it off.' I was like, 'Should we get a divorce? Are we even supposed to be together?' I started rethinking ... and then after a while, I was like, 'Nope, we're just staying together.' There's nothing we can do about it. I'm not going to let some blood come between us." (People Magazine)
Celina shared that she received a lot of negative comments when she shared the video on TikTok. Perhaps many people are uncomfortable with the notion of incest, but it sounds worse than it is.
"The DNA tests indicated they are between second to seventh cousins, she says, so the closest relative they could potentially have in common would be a great-grandparent." (People Magazine)
Who cares right? Their kids are healthy and they were none the wiser when they got married, so no harm, no foul...
