Photos from the wedding day have been posted on social media.
One snapshot shows Abby and Brittany in a white wedding dress, standing next to Josh, dressed in a grey suit.
The siblings shared videos from the joyous occasion on their TikTok account. They can be seen partying with family and friends.
They wore a white dress featuring an embroidered top and mesh neckline for the celebration. Both sisters seemed very happy as they celebrated Abby and Josh’s love.
The couple currently resides in Minnesota, and both sisters work as fifth-grade teachers. According to posts on Josh’s Facebook page, they enjoy going on nature hikes, eating ice cream, and snow tubing.
His X profile, previously Twitter, suggests they may have children since it describes him as: “Christian, Father, Husband, Veteran, and occasional gamer.”
Abby and Brittany, born on March 7, 1990, in Minnesota, USA, are dicephalus conjoined twins. This is a rare type of conjoined twins where the heads come side by side but share one body.
They have the same blood flow and share all their organs from the waist down. Abby moves their right arm and leg, and Brittany moves the left.
They’ve never let this stop them from living full lives; they even went to university and each earned their own degree.
Their parents, Patty and Mike, talked about separating the girls but decided not to. They worried the girls could pass away or be severely disabled after such a procedure.
Instead, they encouraged Abby and Brittany to grow their own individual thoughts.
Now older, Abby stated: “We never wish we were separated because we would never be able to do all the things that we do now, like play softball, run and do sports.”
For their 16th birthday, they successfully passed their driving test – both taking the driver’s seat.
The sisters became famous in 1996 after being on the Oprah Winfrey Show. They had their own show on TLC called Abby and Brittany.
People often ask them about who they date. In 2012, Brittany said: “The whole world doesn’t need to know who we are seeing, what we are doing and when we are going to do it.”
“But believe me, we are totally different people.”
Abby also said: “Yeah, we are going to be mums one day, but we don’t want to talk about how it’s going to work yet.”
