King Edward the Confessor's closest relatives were his mother and his brother. After that, William, Duke of Normandy, known as "The Conqueror" was closest blood relative, a cousin.Harald Godwineson was 20 years old when Edward married Harald's aunt, Edith. Thus, Harald and Edward did not share a drop of the same blood.
