20 Celebrities That You Did Not Know Have Twin Siblings

Being a twin is arguably a huge characteristic – one which most people tend to know about before they even know anything about you. “Oh, he’s the twin, right?”“Did you hear about the twins?”“I can never tell those two apart!”But what happens when one of the wombmate duo gains international fame, and the other is less famous? The twin trait tends to take the backseat, which is why there are a bunch of celebrities you’re familiar with, whom you’ll be surprised to find out are actually part of a birthday duo. 1. Ashton Kutcher, most recently known for his role in Two and a Half Men, and his fraternal twin Michael who suffers from cerebral palsy, are practically best buddies. 2. Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen is one of a beautiful fraternal duo along with twin sibling Patricia, and they are just two of five gorgeous Bundchen sisters! 3. Canadian alternative rock idol Alanis Morisette has a twin brother, Wade, who’s also in the music industry, creating yoga-influenced indie rock albums. 4.
