"Hold onto your crumpets, everybody," the talk show host said on her show as she shared the news in a segment titled 'Ye Olde Wedding Watch,' according to E! Online.
DeGeneres received a letter from the New England Genealogical Society -- which she joking thought was a letter from her "lady doctor" -- revealing she was in fact a distant cousin of Middleton.
"You are distant cousins ... but cousins still the same," the letter said, claiming the future royal and talk show host are 15th cousins, related by a man named Sir Thomas Fairfax and his wife, Agnes Gascoigne.
"I'm definitely invited to the wedding now!" DeGeneres told her live audience. "Between the Packers winning the Super Bowl and this, I'm having a good week."
Middleton is set to marry Prince William on April 29 at Westminster Alley.
