When conjoined twins Abby and Brittany Hensel were born in Minnesota in 1990, their parents were told they wouldn't live long past birth. However, the Hensel sisters, now 34, defied the odds, enjoying an extraordinary life, romantic relationships, and this month, they sparked pregnancy rumours with a cryptic message posted on TikTok.

In 1996, the twins, who were born with a rare condition called dicephalic parapagus, captivated the world with their remarkable story after appearing on The Oprah Winfrey Show and the cover of Life Magazine. Abby and her sister Brittany, one of only a few sets of dicephalus twins in history to survive infancy, rose to fame on their eponymous TLC show that chronicled their major life events, including high school graduation and job hunting.

This year, the pair were back in the spotlight after it emerged that Abby secretly married nurse and Army veteran Josh Bowling in 2021, according to public records obtained by Today, which made her stepmother to Josh's daughter, Isabella. Now, the conjoined twins have sparked pregnancy rumours after sharing an unusual video on social media - a happening that the pair's mother previously predicted in a documentary.

But when the Hensel twins were born on March 7, 1990, doctors warned their parents, Patty, a registered nurse, and Mike, a carpenter and landscaper, that they were unlikely to survive the night. It was a claim proved wildly wrong. From starring in their reality TV show to forming relationships, Abby and Brittany have achieved an incredible amount in the past 34 years. Now, as the pair spark pregnancy rumors, Femail explores their romantic life...
