Is Donald Duck Related to Daisy Duck? | Disney FAQ

In the Disney cartoons, the characters Donald Duck and Daisy Duck are not related.

Daisy first appeared as Donald’s love interest in the 1940 cartoon Mr Duck Steps Out. Over the years, she has starred in romantic cartoons alongside Donald.

However, apparently, according to the Don Rosa comics Daisy Duck is the aunt of Huey, Dewey, and Louie. Huey, Dewey, and Louie are Della Duck’s sons and Della’s twin brother Donald’s nephews.

This means that, in the comics at least, Daisy and Donald are related by marriage.

Generally though, Daisy is seen as Donald’s girlfriend.
