Click the FamilySearch logo, then click Activities, then choose All Activities. Famous Relatives is the second box of nine, for me.

I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...
Just in passing ...
Regardless, of the "Link," that you were sent ...
There are TWO (x2) ways, that one, can 'see', if one, has "Famous Relatives" ...
[ 1 ] ... 'FamilySearch' ... "Activities" ... "All Activities" ( ie. "Family History Activities" ) ..."Famous Relatives"
TOP Line Menu ---> Activities ---> All Activities ( ie. Family History Activities ) ---> Famous Relatives
The URL; being, https://www.familysearch.org/discovery/famousrelatives
OR, better still ...
[ 2 ] ... (BYU) RelativeFinder
As an aside ...
As well as, Famous Relatives, in the Family History Activities, of Discovery, under Activities, in 'FamilySearch', there is ANOTHER place where you may be able to 'see' even more Famous Relatives ...
Just in case, you were not aware ...
IF, you have not already utilised such; THEN, I humbly suggest that you try ...
(BYU) RelativeFinder, which is one of a number of the, Third Party Applications, that are Certified to work with Family Tree of 'FamilySearch'.
BYU = Brigham Young University, in Provo, Utah, USA (ie. the Church University).
Specifically, from the Family History Technology Laboratory, of the Computer Science Department.
Provide, one's "Ancestral" Lines, in Family Tree of 'FamilySearch', are somewhat extensive ...
Then, using (BYU) RelativeFinder, one should be able to 'see' one's "Relationship" NOT only with, "Famous People"; and, many, "Others"; but, ALSO between, (1) one's self and a "Deceased" individual/person (if, there is one of course); and/or (2) two (x2) "Deceased" individuals/person (if, there is one of course); and/or, (3) one's self and a another "Living" User/Patron (if, there is one of course).
PLUS, one can ALSO "Print" the connections/links between them.
And, it is simple, just a matter of "Signing In", with the "Credentials" of one's 'FamilySearch' Account; accepting the "Conditions"; and, the "Connection" between, "FamilySearch' and (BYU) RelativeFinder; which, then becomes a "Partner" Account, that is "Connect" to 'FamilySearch'.
(BYU) RelativeFinder digs (pun intended) a lot DEEPER in Family Tree of 'FamilySearch', than 'FamilySearch' does.
Here is direct link to (BYU) RelativeFinder:
https://www.relativefinder.org/#/main
(BYU) RelativeFinder has MANY 'Bells and Whistles', that you might find useful.
Apart from "Famous People" and "Others" ...
(BYU) RelativeFinder has some interesting options ...
There is an option to see if there is a 'Connection' between yourself and a "Deceased" individual/person in Family Tree of 'FamilySearch'.
There is an option to see if there is a 'Connection' between two (x2) "Deceased" individuals/person in Family Tree of 'FamilySearch'.
There is an option to see if there is a 'Connection' between ("Living" - Users/Patrons) Friends in Family Tree of 'FamilySearch'.
And ...
Masquerade
Explore relatives of a deceased person as if you were them by inputting their FamilySearch.org PID.
https://www.relativefinder.org/#/masquerade
Magic.
Just explore.
Enjoy.
Good Luck.
I hope. that this may also help/assist.

ps: Caveat - Please be aware, that NOT "All" Users/Patrons, may have success; but, hopefully, many will.
