When Abby and Brittany were born in 1990, their parents, Patty and Mike Hensel, decided not to have a separation surgery because they considered it too risky. At the time, the doctors said that the chances of both surviving the surgery were slim.

In a documentary filmed when the girls were teenagers, their mother said they were interested in having children of their own one day, “and it's probably something that could work because those organs work for them.”

In another interview, Brittany reiterated her desire to have a family of her own: 'We don't need the whole world to know who we're seeing, what we're doing and when we're going to do it. But believe me, we are completely different.

Abby's relationship with father-of-one Josh has flown under the radar until now, as the twins have lived a quiet life in the spotlight for the past 10 years.

“People have been curious about us since we were born, for obvious reasons,” the twins said in the first episode of their eight-part series, according to ABC News. But our parents never let us use that as an excuse. “We were raised to believe that we could do whatever we wanted.”
