PRIVATE WEDDING

However, their lives for the past decade have been more private though it was revealed that one of the sisters got married.

Public records seen by Today have revealed that Abby married US Army Veteran and nurse Josh Bowling in 2021.

Photographs from the wedding have been shared on social media pages run by the twins.

A photo from the wedding shows the twins wearing a sleeveless white dress with Abby beaming at the camera.

Another photograph showing the first dance shows Bowling dancing with the sisters who both have their hair styled in the same way with a half-up do with a bun pinned with a jewelled clip.

Bowling can be seen wearing a grey suit with his arms on the sisters' waists as he gazes at Abby.

Abby and Josh's relationship has been kept private and out of the public eye.

Bowling is a father-of-one and the family continues to live in Minnesota.

A picture shared on Bowling's Facebook page shows the family with his daughter as they all smile at the camera with Abby lovingly placing her arm around the child.

The sisters' mother Patty has previously spoken out about her children's desire for children of their own.

In 2003 when Abby and Brittany were 16 years old, they featured in the documentary "Joined for Life."

Patty explained that her daughters had expressed their interest in having children.

"That is probably something that could work because those organs do work for them," she said.

"Yeah, we're going to be moms," Brittany said at the time.

"We haven't thought about how being moms is going to work yet.

"But we're just 16 — we don't need to think about that right now."

The documentary also highlighted how the two sisters are individuals and like many twins have different personalities and tastes.

"Believe me, we are totally different people," Brittany said previously.

When the sisters were 16 they spoke about their desire to be mothers and now Abby is married to father-of-one Josh, they can see how that would work logistically
