Fans noticed on Wednesday that Elle has different coloured eyes to her parents.

What determines eye colour?

Scientists used to think eye colour was determined by two eye colour genes, one from each parent. Since brown is dominant over blue, a blue-eyed person would have two blue-eye genes, and two blue-eyed parents couldn’t have a brown-eyed child.

We now know that it’s much more complicated than that.

Eye colour is determined by several genes that control melanin production in your iris. Darker eyes have a lot of melanin, while light eyes have only a little.

Because you inherit genes from your parents, it’s likely that your eyes will be similar in color to one or both of your parents. But it’s also possible for you to have brown eyes, even if both of your parents have blue eyes.
