4. Tatyana Ali, Trinidad/Panama (Ashley from โ€œFresh Prince of Bel-Airโ€)
The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air

It seems like almost everyone on Fresh Prince of Bel Air were from the islands in some respect. Trinis in particular seem to have been well represented: all three Banks kids have Trini connections, including “Ashley,” Tatyana Ali, the child of a Panamanian nurse and a former cop from T&T. Like former castmates Alphonso Ribeiro and Nia Long, Tatyana waves the Trini flag proudly, returning often to her father’s island for Carnival.
