King Tut Married His Sister... And Maybe His Stepmom?

Tut was married shortly after ascending to the throne. As was the family tradition,

his bride was a relative, his own half-sister, Ankhesenamun. She is believed

to have been a few years older than Tut, but in truth, little is known

about her. Like Tut, she was a child of Akhenaten and may have even been

married to him. Her mother was likely Queen Nefertiti, who, if you recall,

also might have been Tut's mom. For those of you keeping score, Tut's wife was definitely

his half-sister, possibly his blood sister, and maybe his stepmom. But hey,

family stuff. It's complicated.
