Joan Callaghan is the mother of English pop singer Cheryl Cole. Given her last name, I am willing to wager that she is mostly Irish with some Welsh roots. Does she look like a typical darker featured NW Euro?

Mother is only 25% Irish and the rest English. No Welsh.

Does she look odd for England? I believe she is from Newcastle upon Tyne.

She is darker than average but nothing stands out about her features. You do get people with darker colouring in all populations which seems to ignite a lot of discussion in certain quarters. I bet if she had a dna test she would be the same as other people with the same ancestry. Cheryl is beautiful. Her son Cheryl's brother has an unusual look also. I think he is the most unusual looking in the whole family.
