After identical twin sisters from Delaware married identical twin brothers from Tennessee, the children they are raising together share in a rare biological phenomenon.
When identical twin sisters Briana and Brittany Deane first saw identical twin brothers Josh and Jeremy Salyers, they say they thought the brothers were handsome and hoped to meet them. Within 15 minutes of chatting, the Salyers brothers said they knew it was love. That first encounter took place at the Twinsburg, Ohio, Twins Day Festival, which claims to be the largest annual gathering of twins and multiples in the world.
“Jeremy and I really were attracted to each other and started gravitating toward each other,” Briana Salyers said. “And Brittany and Josh started. So it was like perfectly kind of paired off.”
The meeting set off whirlwind romances for all four. Six months later, the brothers popped the question together: Jeremy Salyers proposing to Briana, and Josh Salyers proposing to Brittany — even with matching engagement rings.
