Kylie Minogue’s criminal ancestors

Also,the documents show that Minogue’s great-great-grandfather Morgan Riddiford was jailed for assaulting a 14-year-old farm girl.

Morgan’s son George had married a Welsh woman. Their daughter Millie married into another Welsh family,the Joneses whose marriage produced Carol Ann Jones. Carol came to Australia,married Ron Minogue and gave birth to Kylie and Dannii.

The ‘Can’t Get You Out Of My Head’ hitmaker still has blood relatives living in South Wales,which includes her great uncle Dennis Riddiford,who lives near Port Talbot,Wales.

He is the brother of Kylie’s grandmother Millie and claims to be in contact with Carol and her family.

“Carol’s a great girl and she’s never forgotten she’s from here,or allowed her daughters” fame to change her,” the Daily Telegraph quoted Riddiford as saying.

He added: “We often call each other and when she’s in the UK,she comes to my home and stays.”
