Conjoined twins Abby and Brittany Hensel are not letting the haters get to them. After Abby’s recent marriage to Josh Bowling, the sisters took to TikTok to address their critics in a bold and epic way. In a video posted on March 29, the 34-year-old twins shared a message to all the naysayers, stating, “If you don’t like what I do but watch everything I’m doing, you’re still a fan.”
The video, which featured pictures of the duo alongside Abby’s husband, ended with a mic drop moment and the caption “#Forever.” To Abby and Brittany, who are joined from the belly button down, social media noise is just that – noise. They have always been unapologetically themselves, even in the face of scrutiny.
The twins rose to fame in 1996 after an interview on “The Oprah Winfrey Show” and have since been featured in various documentaries and a reality series on TLC. Despite their unique situation, Abby and Brittany embrace their differences and live life to the fullest. They have their own hearts, brains, lungs, stomachs, and kidneys, but share other organs like a liver and bladder.
“We are totally different people,” Brittany, who controls their left limbs, has said. “We usually bargain with each other like, ‘If you do this, I’ll do that.’ Or we take turns.” The twins have always maintained that they wouldn’t change a thing and are grateful for the life they have, which allows them to play sports, meet new people, and run. Their message is clear – they are here to stay, haters and all.
