Madelaine Petsch & KJ Apa Ponder If Cheryl & Archie Are Actually Related on 'Riverdale'
Since fans learned that Cheryl Blossom and Betty Cooper are cousins during the season one finale of Riverdale, there could be a chance that even more of the gang are related too.
So, when Glamour asked the resident redheads — Madelaine Petsch and KJ Apa — if their characters could be related on the show, it was sound.
While KJ wondered if they could be: “I’ve wondered that before”; Madelaine was over here shutting down that stereotype that all redheads are related.
“I personally think no. I know plenty of other redheads that I’m not related to personally, that I grew up with,” she told the mag.
Of the world’s population, less than 2% have red hair — Madelaine being one of those 140 million people, so it’s very unlikely that Cheryl and Archie are related.
“But you never know,” Madelaine added. “It is Riverdale. My whole theory now is it’s Riverdale. Anything can happen!”
