Actors Sarah Michelle (Gellar) Prinze (of Buffy the Vampire Slayer fame) and Freddie Prinze Jr. (She’s All That) just announced their little girl was born!
Because Papi Prinze, who is fluent in Spanish, is half Latino (Puerto Rican) and half (Hungarian) Jewish and Ima Sarah Michelle is a Jewess, their daughter is a little Jewtina–Jewish Latina. (Or a Jewricua–Jewish Boricua–to be more precise!)
So, “Mazel Tov” and “Felicidades” as we welcome new Latina Jewess Charlotte Grace Prinze in the world!
but does it really make a difference if neither of them self-identify as Jewish.
Congrats to them!

I don't think so. Of course, I think the world would be a better place if more Jews felt comfortable and proud of being Jewish. But lucky for this little girl, her mother is Jewish and the door to the Jewish community will always be open to her should she seek it.

Freddie Prinze, Jr has ZERO Jewish heritage and ZERO “Hungarian” ancestry. His grandfather (his father’s father) was a German immigrant who was Lutheran and had NO Jewish ancestry. Freddie, Sr. FALSELY claimed that his father was a Hungarian Jew but that was totally untrue. If you had taken five minutes to do even a basic internet search you would have known this but instead, you are spreading misinformation.
