  They belong(ed) to the german royal house “Sachsen-Coburg und Gotha” and changed their name to “Windsor” after WW1 to not be affiliated with germany anymore. I don’t know if that’s enough to call them foreign though.

    A “house name” represents only one of a person’s many ancestors.

  If I’m not mistaken, the royals are German or something.
