In a March 2016 interview, Forrest told The Tribune that his grandfather Gerald Summerfield was involved in proving that the coelacanth fish species was, in fact, not extinct.
Gerald “found a whole, fresh specimen in a fish market” in the Comoros, “and he knew it was something special,” Forrest said at the time.
The Naked and Afraid alum also described Gerald as “a fantastic adventurer as an Englishman who settled in Southern Africa … at a time when Africa was still unexplored.”
