Elizabeth, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen relationship explained

If you thought that Mary Kate and Ashley were the only Olsen siblings, it's time you get a rundown of the Olsen family tree. There are six Olsen siblings. The twins and their younger sister Elizabeth share an older brother named Trent and two younger half-siblings, Taylor and Jake, from their father's second marriage.

First comes Trent (born on May 6, 1984), the oldest sibling who many may remember from his appearances in Mary Kate and Ashley's movies in the '90s. His credits include 'You're Invited to Mary-Kate & Ashley's Sleepover Party' and 'The Adventures of Mary-Kate & Ashley series'. His first name is James but he goes by his middle name Trent, and as reports indicate has written comics.

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen (born June 13, 1986) are the next siblings in line who don many hats such as producing movies, TV shows and writing books. The duo who attended New York University now focuses on the couture label called 'The Row'. Then, of course, comes the sibling who most people are confused is an Olsen. Elizabeth Chase Olsen (born February 16, 1989), has made her name as the Scarlet Witch in the MCU. She too attended the same university as her older twin sisters and graduated in the year 2013.  Want some more "shocking" news? Elizabeths first two acting roles were ironically in projects that involved her two twin sisters. She played the "girl in car" in 'How the West Was Fun' and "girl with flowers" in an episode on 'Full House'.

Turns out that Elizabeth has been heavily influenced by the life of her older sisters but she also feared nepotism. She told The Sun, "I couldn't walk in a room without everyone already having an opinion. The thing about nepotism is the fear that you don't earn or deserve the work. There was even a part of me when I was a little girl that thought if I'm gonna be an actress I'm going to go by Elizabeth Chase, which is my middle name."

Among the siblings is also Courtney Taylor Olsen (born 1996), who is the Olsen gang's half-sister from their dad's marriage to McKenzie Olsen. She's very supportive of her sister Elizabeth as can be seen by an Instagram post that sees Elizabeth on the 'Avengers: Infinity War' poster.

Lastly, there's Jake Olsen (born 1998) who is the youngest and the second of their father's children with his second wife. Jake also spoke about his family in 2016 saying, "I learned about respect from everyone in my family. In a family of six kids, you learn it's not always about you. I love every chaotic moment I have when my family is all together. It's a lot more normal than you would think." He added, "We all support each other's dreams."

Twitter stunned Elizabeth is an Olsen sister

Elizabeth, who plays Wanda on 'WandaVision', has been a fan favorite for a while now, especially since the show is turning heads. It now seems that people are shocked to find out that Elizabeth is related to the famous "Olsen Twins" and is their younger sister.

Another added, "everyone talking about how they didn’t know elizabeth olsen was related to mary kate and ashley... when i thought she was one of the twins who acted in the marvel movies this whole time."
