Unknowing twins marry each other
A set of British twins who were separated at birth went on to marry each other without realizing they were related, the UK Press Association reported Friday.
The brother and sister, who were adopted by separate parents, were given an annulment after a High Court judge ruled that the marriage had never been valid.
Their identities and details of their relationship have been kept secret, but the Press Association reported that the duo did not find out that they were blood relatives until after they were married.
David Alton, a member of the House of Lords, revealed their situation as a way of highlighting perceived shortcomings in the Human Embryology and Tissues Bill which is now going through Britain's Parliament.
He first heard of the twins' marriage in a conversation with a High Court judge, and initially raised the case in a House of Lords debate on December 10.
Alton said: "(The brother and sister) met later in life and felt an inevitable attraction, and the judge had to deal with the consequences of the marriage that they entered into and all the issues of their separation.
"I suspect that it will be a matter of litigation in the future if we do not make information of this kind available to children who have been donor-conceived."
Alton is concerned that the new bill would allow the biological identity of one parent to be removed from the birth certificate, PA reported, and that there would be no way for the child to know if they had been donor-conceived.
He told PA on Friday: "The state is colluding in a deception. We are opening the door to more cases like this one. One of the most fundamental things of all is to know who you are. The issue here is about human rights.
"A birth certificate that omits any mention of your true origin falsifies your history in a very significant way."
What's "eww" about it? It's not like they knew they were related. I think it's wonderful they found each other; funny how they felt a connection.
okey its gross but these things can happen.
it must be sor hard for them..poor twins..
okey its gross but these things can happen.
it must be so hard for them..poor twins..
SO many reasons to take the picture down, P. It has nothing to do with the story and is confusing some of your mentally challenged readers that obviously didn't read and comprehend the story. Also it's completely vulgar and insensitive. Those were someone's children regardless of their medical conditions. As a mother of fraternal twins, I think this is 100% unthoughtful of you. If I wanted to see this, I would have gone to rotten.com and not a celebrity gossip site.
I read your site every day. Not any more - that picture should not be posted in this context. I bet there are thousands more that agree with me.
The only thing that will hurt you Perez is how many hits you get. I think for all those disgusted viewers, they should boycott this site.
wow… what are the odds?
Aaah omg that's awful. That must be so shocking/traumatic to hear.
i feel bad for them…ya it is gross, but they didn't know.
wow these people are really mad!! It is pretty funny. I think this is comic genius in fact. That fucked up pic with that story?? Too bad so many people have just over reacted. Reporting him to his sponsors? Why don't you go tell the teacher too. Dang!
So they don't like the picture because of the article or they just don't like the picture? you see these pictures in biology and human sexuality classes. nature is cruel, people need to take a chill. perez didn't kill those babies.
You people are IDIOTS. Perez used a picture of dead SIAMESE twins because he knew it would get a reaction. The twins in the story are NOT SIAMESE twins. I'm really beginning to think the average IQ of the commenters on this site is about 73, give or take a few points.
@flutterfli00: Hi Mario, funny to see you commenting on your very own blog and trying to defend yourself incognito, you sick fuck.
I'm sure your mother is so proud of her son who has no heart or soul. Or maybe the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
I too REPORTED YOU TO YOUR SPONSOR, I'm pretty sure they don't want to be associated with inhuman shit like this. I think people should also send the link to the makers of THE VIEW… I don't think you'll ever be invited there again. Some of the women there are mothers after all.
how many people need to ask you to take that picture down before you do it? its a photo of two conjoined twins that are obviously dead. as the artical wasnt about conjoined twins what relavence does it have?
I dont care about the stupid article…that pic is horrible… What right do you have posting a pictures of dead baby twins on this site?? What about the parents?? And by the looks of it they are covered in faeces.. shame on you Perez.. this is disgusting.
Please remove the picture of the deceased babies. They are someone's children. Posting that picture is incredibly insensitive, disrespectful and inappropriate.
Sorry for the double post but i just realised, everyone is having a go at Perez for posting it.. which he deserves coz his a fat disgusting pig.. but what about the person who took the picture and then sent it around to people.. that person should also be ashamed.. RIP to the little babies.
have a respect for such problems - take that picture off perez!!! please, it's not a joke, its a tragedy, please, take that offf…
I think their attraction to each other wasn't that. I honestly believe they had a connection, but didn't know what to make of it, therefore going in over their heads saying they're 'in love'. I hope they don't stay married, because that is truly wrong in my opinion.
yeah it's gross but they didn't actually know who the other was,
so it's completely devastating
Funniest story I've heard this year so far.
Also what's everybody's problem with that picture? It's just conjoined twins and I'm sure we've all seen them on tv or learned about them in school so what's the big deal? Isn't it insensitive to be grossed out by them rather than having neutral feeling towards them?
I love the website but the picture is horrible . As a pregnant mom who just had experimental surgery this week to try to save the twins she is carrying the picture is disturbing at best. Not to mention it doesn't have anything to do with the article as conjoined twins are ALWAYS the same gender. Come on Perez
thatsjust sad.
and yeah gross pic dude.
This story is total crap…joined twins would be the same sex….duh!!!
It's not that fact that the twins are conjoined that bothers me. It is that one or both of them is dead. I understand that Perez was trying to be funny, but dead babies just aren't funny in my book. Take the picture down. I love the idea of emailing your sponsors, you sick puppy.
jesus christ perez what the fuck is wrong with you? usually you're funny but this time you went over the top. puke.
take that picture off, it's too desturbing for a gossip blog. fuck you.
first of all to all you fools seperated at birth does not mean they where conjoined… they where seperated… and this pic is highly offensive perez… and as much as i LOVE you this is real bad
How do you marry someone & never talk about the scar you most likely have from surgery….when they removed your twin from you? Very strange stuff.
For once I approve of a picture on this website.
What, to real for your whiny fucks? Get over it. Death happens.
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww…wdf?!
this is fucking disgusting, it is a tragic story of a couple falling in love and having their hearts ripped out. and they have been made 2 look like circus freaks. they were not conjoined because they were of opposite genders you titwank. and having that picture up takes attention away from the real story as these morons seem to think they the couple were originally conjoined. you are a class A prick, if you're gonna have a serious story up you could at least have the decency and respect not to make a mockery of the whole situation.
PEREZ HILTON IS A SAD FAT FUCK WHO HAS NO LIFE, HE FOLLOWS AROUND CELEBRITIES FOR A FUCKING LIVING AND NOW HE HAS STARTED TAKING THE PISS OUT OF INNOCENT PEOPLE. PEOPLE LIKE YOU SHPULD BURN IN HELL!!!!
I will never come back to this site. You are a very insensitive shit for posting that picture. Obviously it doesn't matter to you, but it does to many people who came to this site for gossip and not to be subjected to dead babies.
Do they not do blood testing prior to marriage in England? That would take care of the problem because with the testing you can tell if people are related.
WHAT THE FUCK????????? WHY DID YOU POST THAT PICTURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
what is the point of showing a photograph of dead conjoined twins that you pulled from some old archive out there? Isn't this more "Ripley's Believe It or Not" kind of stuff?
Apologize for that inappropiate picture!! Boycott Perez till he does. Those are innocent babies who look like they probably are dead. Heartbreaking that anyone would find that amusing.
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
take the picture out, have a heart!!!
Take this picture down. How sad that you would put a picture like this on your site.
It's called genentic sexual attraction. When two people who are related meet after a very long time of not seing each other or for the first time in their life, they are atracted to each other.
oh my god poor them! they thought they had found "the one" but they had found their sibling!!!!!!!! but didnt they notice they looked alike? or that they were both adopted, etc etc? but still oh my god i feel so horrible for them. I wonder if they're going to divorce? Bt the article didn't say they were simaese twins, so take that pic off!
Re: Double L – um,your joking right?? PLEASE tell me your joking…noone can be THAT stupid.
i don't think this is gross at all, i feel bad for them being separated at birth. its not like they intentionally set out to marry each other because they were brother and sister
Love your site, but showing this picture of conjoined twins is tasteless, and sad. I am sure these two are not living, and the twins who married were not conjoined as they were male and female, thus fraternal, meaning they came from 2 eggs. The picture is from 1 egg that was to be a set of identical twins who never seperated completly.
If you know you are brother and sister it is VERY wrong, but if you don't it is just one of those things! It is not there fault. They can't be blamed when they had no clue they were related.
It's not like they grew up together and made this decision, they met and they fell in love. It must be tearing them up inside.
This is a BS story. Conjoined twins come from one embryo attempting to split into two embryos. There for being identical and either both male or female not one of each.
Take the picture down!
HOW STUPID ARE YOU LOT?? They were NOT joined at birth. Read the article.
oh come on now. make fun of celebs. those that chose to be in the spotlight, but poking fun at someone's misfotune at love. then posting such a horrid picture to discribe it? makes me realize 2 things. you are a sad, lonely and pathetic. your whole existance revolves around making fun of people. it's blatently apparent that you have no children. it's even more apparent that you have no love in your live. not a partner, not a friend, not even a parent.
what a sad life you live.
just take the effin picutre down
Did you really expect anything with "class" to be posted on this site? Perez is a loser - pure and simple - always was and always will be. I'm thru with this sick bastard's site - f**cking idiot!
perez…i love your site and know if i need to know you are in the know…you dig? What i dont dig is the picture of those poor babies that you are exploiting? What are you thinking ?? Have a heart for them and their poor parents,issue an apology and take it down……NOW.
ew did they bang..
That is sad because now they love each other and stupid conventions will always hold them back.
Good lord, that picture is completely unnecessary!
Have a little respect and remove that picture!!
If they were conjoined they wouldn't be the same sex…
This story is impossible… A set of twins can only be conjoined when they are identical and sharing the same placenta. There is no such thing as identical female/male twins. Therefore, Perez, take this nasty picture of two (probably dead) twin babies down. It's one thing to gloat on Britney, who fucked up her life herself, but putting up pictures of poor children born fucked up…it's just gross.
You are sick Perez to put that pic up…those are BABIES!! I will NEVER read your shit again
eww dude
Re: Karma –
Totally agree. This is the most offensive thing I have ever seen on this site (and that's saying alot). Get rid of this picture.
ew
Re: cdub – Uh dumbass…the pic has nothing to do with the story….Science 101….its pretty fucking obvious. They must have been fraternal twins…a boy and a girl who wouldnt neccesarily look alike…Science 101… fraternal twins are two separate eggs.. so basically siblings born at the same time who usually dont look alike and can be boy and girl or two of the same sex….identical twins are one egg that splits in half…so are identical in looks and have the same DNA. Really insensitve pic Perez..have some respect for those poor babies.
Why post a picture of conjoined twins? The twins in the article were never CONJOINED, they were just SEPARATED. As in, born separately, given to different families.
I too am done here. That picture is totally inappropriate. How low can you go, truly.
Thats really sad….whats discusting is that you posted this for people to make fun of when in fact those two babys are just helpless and its enirely not funny!!!!
that's heartbreaking… imagine having to find out that after marrying someone and finaly commiting…
theGanj: the problem with the pic is that these are someones children
You are a fucking pig!! That is SO gross!! You should be ashamed of yourself!! You didn't need to show the picture!! Asshole!!
THAT'S CAZYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!
EWWWW… THEY DID IT.. THATS F**KING GROSS.. ITS GANNA BE A WIERD FAMILY REUNION… ACKWARD…
You had better be ready for a rude awakening from the imaginary world you apparently live in. I heard about this pic, and you have crossed a line. The legal kind. Posting this pic breaks numerous decency laws. Pack your toothbrush idiot.
Its not possible for conjoined twins to be different sex. Conjoined twins are ONLY idential and thus same sex.
that is impossible unless one of them had a sex change. i am very sure that conjoined twins develop from a single cell… so that means they start as identical twins and cannot be opposite sexes.
How did they find out that they were brother and sister?
I bet Nickelodeon and Sony will be THRILLED to see this.
TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF, TAKE THE PICTURE OFF
that is just sick. sleeping with your sibling is just plan wrong. can anyone say THERAPY.
both of those babies have vaginas.
i don't think they tried to get married.
Perez… come on, you know better… please take that horific pic of those poor children down… stick to the celebs, these poor babies don't deserve to be paraded like this… please P.
Thanks, love most of your stuff! But leave the babies out of it please.
Angie
thats horribly sad and exploits those poor lil babies
Jeezes Perez lol.
You sick son of a bitch!
I'm game for crude human, but you've posted a picture of dead infants on your page, Perez! Have you no shame? And you… shaming Jessica Alba for her comments against her culture… are you kidding me? There is no comparison for what you have done here. How could you possibly be so insensative to mock an unfortunate birth defect that probably crushed the lives of two parents and countless relatives. Heartless bastards will have their day, too. Karma's a bitch Perez. I hope you're ready for this one.
Re: Phillie – it didn't say they were conjoined, just separated at birth.. The picture is just something he stuck up there.
I feel really bad for the twins, but whats up with that pic ? I know you could have found a better pic than that to get your point across.
there is no way this article is true.
whenever twins are conjoined…they're always the SAME sex. not opposite. its impossible ot have a male and female conjoined.
buuulllsheeeeiiit.
youre fucking disgusting perez
eat my shit
youre fucking disgusting perez
youre fucking disgusting perez
The only thing that will make up for posting this picture is to post a shot of your own dead body.
heeee perez, what kind of disgusting moment was that
so u u took this picture of DEAD BABYs to decorate this story?
i like ur page but this ist really FUCKED up sorry…..
big greets from germany, stuttgart
PEREZ, I USE TO COME TO THIS SITE AT LEAST ONCE OR TWICE A DAY. BY POSTING THIS PICTURE, YOU HAVE SHOWN ME WHAT A SICK, UNINTELLIGENT WASTE OF LIFE YOU ARE. YOU ARE BEYOND SICK FOR POSTING THIS PICTURE, AND IF YOU THINK THAT BY SEPARATED AT BIRTH, THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT CONJOINED TWINS….YOU ARE AN IDIOT. I WILL NEVER COME TO THIS SITE AGAIN. YOU ARE A LOSER AND I AM A ASHAMED THAT I CONSIDERED MYSELF A FAN OF YOURS.
Hard enough being an adoptee..Poor kids. Hope legislation passes that bill!
tragic story. that picture is horrific and really shows what sort of person you must be.
ummm, heres the really strange part: they would have to be identical (genetically) to have been conjoined, so it would have to be like gay/lesbian couple… this story was also reported by msnbc. the source who referenced this twin marriage didnt give details or names. i think its just another case of men lieing to impress someone and feel important.
After all the warnings to not click here your easily offended, just to see a pic of carrot top.This one you don't even warn us about? You just put it right out there?
This is impossible! these twins had to be identical, so 2 girls or 2 guys. Otherwise they could never get stuck to eachother, only identical twins can!
So another story on the internet thats so not true…
a boy and a girl can't be conjoined! only identical twins can.
When will you idiots finally get it? The twins were NOT conjoined, they were simply separated (= given to different parents)!
Perez: now that I see you are willing to exploit a picture of dead babies, I no longer have to wonder if you have a soul… or even a brain.
I wonder what your parents have to say about that??? Are they as heartless and numb as you are? Does it run in the family?
LET THESE LITTLE GIRLS REST IN PEACE, for Christ's sake!!!
Omg . Tht is sik . Imagine the embarrassment.
Hello Perez us cronkey gals love yaa.
Perez— was this picture really necessary? Have you ever considered the emotional state of your readers? Please remove this extremely disturning pic
FAKE! ONLY IDENTICAL TWINS CAN BE CONJOINED. THEREFORE CONJOINED TWINS ARE ALWAYS SAME GENDER!
THIS IS CRAZYNESS…EW
