Default genetical relationship of apple and peach

Cyanogenic glycosides are present in the seeds of both peach and
apple. You eat too many seeds, they hit the stomach acid and
decompose, you die of cyanide poisoning. Tom McCloud

I'm not sure how close they are related but I know there are many diferences
between them not the least of which is the poisionous nature of the seeds and
the wood of the peach tree which isn't true for the apple tree.
