"One of a new breed of back-to-basics rock acts to emerge from Detroit, Michigan, USA, the White Stripes comprises enigmatic bass-free duo Jack White (b. John Anthony Gillis, Detroit, Michigan, USA; guitar/vocals) and Meg White (b. Megan Martha White, Detroit, Michigan, USA; drums). The Whites, variously assumed to be husband and ex-wife or brother and sister, but both denied, formed their new band in 1997. Judging from their facial looks it initially seemed likely the duo were brother and sister, but the matter was confused by Jack White stating that the couple were once married and the posting of a marriage license and divorce certificate on the Internet."

nope, not at all. It was all a publicity stunt concocted by Jack White. They're only relation is completely coincedental because Megs last name is also "White."
But no, they aren't brother and sister nor husband and wife or ex's of any sort. They're just friends who happen to play together and happen to have the same last name.
