However, looking closer at the samples I noticed there were way too many similarities."After observing this, the doctor then noted that the husband and wife had the exact same birth dates and knew that they must be fraternal twins. He then informed the pair that they were in fact related. Initially, the couple just laughed it off and assumed that the doctor was making a joke. This being said, the couple did admit that some people have noticed how physically similar they are, moments later the doctor confirmed that he was not joking. He said:
"From what we were able to piece together, the biological parents of the couple had died in a car crash when the couple were infants, and they had no close family willing to adopt them. They’d been taken into state care, and were adopted out to separate families." "Due to a filing error, neither foster family had ever been told that their adopted child had a twin."According to the news report, the couple are currently considering the future of their relationship.
