Dolores' Surprising DNA Results

When her youngest grandson, Roman, came to her with the idea of testing their DNA to trace back their family ancestry, Dolores was more than happy to oblige. She and Roman submitted their DNA, and now the results are in.

Genealogist Kenyatta Berry, whom Dolores reached out to after seeing her on TV, sits down with Dolores and Roman to run through their heritage. Roman is pleased to hear that he is 61 percent African with some Asian ancestry. Dolores, expecting to hear about the African and Cherokee roots she's always been told of, is far more surprised by her results.

"I've lived a lie my entire life!" she says.

Watch as Dolores learns the truth about her ancestry for the first time in 80 years.
