Are the two stars related?
If you would google Matt Doman and Magnus Carlsen’s pictures, you would be stunned. Back in 2010, the Chess Base posted an article on Magnus Carlsen’s cousin in America. According to the article, Matt Doman’s mother, Professor Nancy Carlsson-Paige of the Lesley University of Cambridge, Massachusetts, reacted to their exclusive article with Magnus, claiming he looks like his son. Nancy’s son is Good Will Hunting star, Matt Doman.
