The article states, She is not related to any of the other (pro-apartheid) political Bothas of South Africa, including P.W. Botha or Pik Botha. This is not quite accurate. Sandra Botha and Pik Botha are both descendants of Frederich Botha. A very distant relationship, it is true, but a relationship nonetheless. P.W. Botha is a descendant of Theunis Botha, Frederich's step-son, whom he legally adopted, so at least in the eyes of the law, it is legitimate to see PW Botha as a relation also.

Another point: Both the bloodline (from Frederich Botha) and the adoptive line (through Theunis Botha) descend from Frederich's wife, Maria Kickers (Theunis was her own illegitimate son). Therefore, all the Botha's are biologically related, if not through Frederich, then definitely through Maria.David Cannon (talk) 08:46, 13 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
