Hitler’s last living relatives at home on Long Island

The Hitlers next door? It turns out Adolf Hitler’s last surviving relatives have been living under the radar on Long Island for decades.

Hitler’s great-nephews Alexander, Louis and Brian Stuart-Houston — the only living descendant­s of the dictator’s paternal side — live qui- etly in the New York suburbs and fly American flags in their yards, according to Germany’s Bild newspaper.

The three men are the sons of Hitler’s nephew, William Patrick Hitler, who was born in Britain to the Führer’s half-brother, Alois Hitler Jr.

Alois split when “Willy” Hitler was young, according to The New Yorker. But Willy wound up visiting his estranged dad in Germany in 1929, where he attended a rally. He then returned to Britain and began giving interviews to the press as Hitler’s “English nephew.”

William later traveled to New York, where he continued to give lectures on his infamous family, and eventually joined the US Navy to fight in World War II.

After the war, he moved to Patchogue with his German wife and changed the family’s name — first to Hiller and then StuartHous­ton, according to Bild.

He died in 1987 and his sons have refused to speak with the media. But Alexander finally broke his silence.

“The last person I would say I admire is Donald Trump,” he said.
