Jewish background?

"Jules was adopted by a Jewish couple in California, Norma and Ben Urman, in 1953; a DNA test showed that one of Kristen's biological maternal grandparents was Ashkenazi Jewish."

The source for this is unavailable on the Wayback Machine, and I cannot seem to find any Howard Stern interview of her disclosing a Jewish background. She also doesn't celebrate Hanukkah or publicly identify as Jewish. [1] In regards to Jules Stewart, I've heard that she was born in 1959, [2] but I've yet to find an official source and this should be taken with a grain of salt. Her Twitter page shows she was residing in Australia with her family in the 1990s,[3] her MyHeritage biography lists her as native Australian, [4] and Kristen mentions her maternal Australian relatives live in Vancouver. [5]

I believe we should omit this until further corroboration from other sources and revert it to the [older revision.]

Not done: The above seems to be your own WP:OR//WP:SYNTH based on dubious sources (celebrity gossip magazines and twitter). WP:VNT applies here, and if the information is properly sourced in the article, then it is unnecessary to remove it. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 01:27, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
Sounds good. I haven't gone over the ins and outs of editing on Wikipedia, but thank you for clarification. I'll be sure to find trusted sources next time.Cinematic Maniac (talk) 03:35, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
Her mother has a California birth record in the index in 1953. This matches with the specific birth date that's online for her, and with the year that Stewart said. She was adopted by Norma and Ben Urman, who were Jewish and married in California in the late 1940s (see this record). And Stewart's DNA test listed her as 24% Ashkenazi Jewish, which matches with the fact that most Jewish couples at the time adopted babies that were born to Jewish mothers; most likely, from the test, Stewart's birth grandmother was Jewish, and her grandfather wasn't. Stewart said most of this herself (the parts that were in the Wikipedia article, anyway, which is what's relevant to this discussion). Usually, individuals are reliable sources for their own family heritage. It can't be "controversial" because no one in the media has questioned it or deemed it unlikely or untrue. Wikipedia editors can't simply state something as "controversial" because of their personal feelings.
The interview aired on November 5, 2019, and can, as cited, be viewed at the archived page. It was also made note of on the Stern Archive pages. In any case, radio shows and interviews can be cited as sources.
As for the links you cited. Popsugar - certainly seems possible her mother has relatives who live in Vancouver. It's not contradictory. The Forward - the writer, in 2011, was simply assuming when he called her "not Jewish." It wasn't an interview with Stewart. Nor has she ever called herself "not Jewish" as far as I know. Celeb Net worth - not a reliable source. Twitter - this picture, from 1995, doesn't mention residence. It just shows Jules with her children in Australia that year, probably on a visit (in any case, so what if they lived there then?). Myheritage - not a reliable source. Data aggregate/etc.
I asked about this before on this page. Has Stewart ever said "my mother is Australian"? Or even "from Australia?" Something tells me this is a fact often repeated by media sources repeating each other's information (even the "Vancouver relatives" article doesn't actually feature her say it).
As for the Wikipedia article. I'm not commenting on the categories, but as for the article text, Stewart is not her mother, but she inherits her mother's family history and ancestry. All Hallow's Wraith (talk) 22:58, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
Her mother's birth record is also viewable here. All Hallow's Wraith (talk) 11:12, 19 December 2021 (UTC)

Bisexual?

Under "Personal Life", Stewart is listed as bisexual, although she has labelled herself as gay on multiple occasions. 203.221.153.104 (talk) 10:17, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
