He spent much of his childhood in Portugal.

Maybe in a tiny minority of Portuguese but I think his head metrics are too wide

never. a tall (191cm), fair, big-headed dude like him would never pass in iberia. he's like the stereotype of northern european peasant stock.

average portuguese look like this (collage of portuguese women politicians from the 1970s, so no hair dye yet):

Aber is clear that the guy is not on the Portuguese or Iberian spectrum in general, but there are Iberians with similar traits although obviously they are not typical at all.
