I HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT SHAKESPEARE AND QUEEN ELIZABETH PICTURES AND THEY RESEMBLE EACH OTHER. COULD THEY BE DISTANT RELATIVES FROM ANNE BOLEYN'S FAMILY. SHE CAME FROM THE GENTRY - RATHER COMMON STOCK.
Anne Boleyn was Queen Elizabeth's mother. Neither de Vere or Shakespeare had any relation to either woman or to each other.

Specifically, Queen Victoria's great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandmother was Margaret Tudor who was married to King James IV of Scotland.

Well, honey, during Shakespeare's time, Queen Elizabeth I was strutting her stuff in England during the Elizabethan era. And when she kicked the bucket, King James I took over during the Jacobean era. So, there you have it, two monarchs, two eras, and Shakespeare in the middle of it all.
If you're talking about the UK, there have been two Queen Elizabeths (The first one was only queen of England and Wales, not Scotland or Ireland). They both had only one mother each.

Queen Elizabeth II was the daughter of King George VI and Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, Known as Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother. She died in her sleep on 2002 aged 101 years.
