Hi Colin
Do you think Healthy Celeb’s data is wrong here? Is yes, any particular reason?
Yes I do. Because Fort Worth is not the same as Dallas, Texas. Fort Worth is a suburb of Dallas, Texas.
So, a person can’t be born in Fort Worth which is a suburb of Dallas (as you mentioned)?
You can check her interview given to DMagazine.com and also DallasNews.com article.
Of course people can be born in Fort Worth, Texas and people are born in Fort Worth, Texas which is a suburb of Dallas all the time. I was just saying that her Wikipedia page states that she was born in Dallas, Texas, United States 🇺🇸 and not in Fort Worth, Texas, United States 🇺🇸.
