Celebrity Relatives
Guests on Loose Women today are Romesh and his mother, and the daughter of Mel B. Anyone else fed up with celebrities pushing their relatives forward, like Barney Walsh, Roman Kemp, etc?

But I agree with Theblip, why should viewers be interested in a nonentity just because he/she is related to a celebrity?
Trotting out family members could get boring for viewers. If it only happens once in a while, it could be tolerated, but if it starts happening regularly, people will vote with their remote control, and stop watching it, I think.
It's one thing when the offspring are in the profession and a different thing when they just bring on the mother or daughter for no good reason. Did you complain when Nancy Sinatra or Liza Minnelli were in the spotlight or the Fondas, father and daughter or the whole Redgrave acting dynasty, the Dotrices and on and on. It happens in other walks of life, several generations of doctors in a family or the butcher e.g. Jones & Son. Why should the entertainment business be any different?
