BLACK & WHITE TWINS…
Thursday, February 23, 2006
REMEE & KIAN, born in the UK…

[**spotted @ 730 FORUMS & EXHALE SOME**]
When Kylie Hodgson gave birth to twin daughters by caesarean section, she was just relieved that they had arrived safely. It was only when the midwife handed them over for her to hold that she noticed the difference between them. Remee, who weighed 5lb 15oz, was blonde and fair skinned. Her sister Kian, born a minute later weighing 6lb, was black.
The amazing conception happened after two eggs were fertilised at the same time in the womb. Both Kylie and her partner Remi Horder, 17, are of mixed race. Their mothers are both white and their fathers are black. According to the Multiple Births Foundation, baby Kian must have inherited the black genes from both sides of the family, whilst Remee inherited the white ones (read more)

This is going to sound bad because they are both adorable, but the darker one is cuter, LOL.
I think this is pretty wonderful though. They are 100% sisters, take that racism!

That is just amazing…I am utterly shocked and amazed. Remee doesn’t really even look white, she looks almost albino…? Anyways, they are cute and healthy and thats all that matters to their family, I’m sure.

Just goes to show you, it’s true that there is only 1/10% difference, that’s one tenth of ONE percent, genetic differences between the races. Beautiful family.

This is a medical marvel. I hope they can overcome the stigmas that are sure to come!!!!! LOVE is strong, but pride is a different story.
Both are equally beautiful, to be honest, they look the same but are different shades. BLOOD IS THICKER THAN WATER.

The babies are beautiful. I don’t see why people - especially black folks - are so surprised? We’ve all seen families where one child is lighter than the other, darker,has strong European features, etc…Maybe I’m just speaking for my family. Most of us are all mixed up anyway.

@Calichick
Yeah, there’s ususally a lighter child in families …but in black families not with BLONDE HAIR AND BLUE EYES!! Especially when neither of the parents have it themselves. But they are cute regardless.

I have to respectfully disagree with you. My aunt has strawberry blond hair and green yes. I have another aunt that is PALE and looks white, with green eyes. You have to remember that a lot of blacks are mixed up. Take a look at blacks who were dropped off in Mexico, South America, Central America, Brazil, etc…Contrary to popular belief, black people do not all look alike.

Thank you! My family runs from mahogany to blue eyes and blond hair - I’m fair skinned enough to be exhausted of (and extremely irritated with) the question, “Are you really black?” But I never, NEVER deny my heritage. Black is black.

@Calichick
Ok..I stand corrected. I don’t know what you look like but I assumed from the photo that since the neither one of the parents didn’t have blonde hair/blue eyes that this could be surprising to black people. But I can’t figure out how Sonny Bono and Cher, both brunette people had a blonde child Chasity. So much for my input.

Im not SUPRISED BUT THIS IS VERY RARE! WE TALKED ABOUT THIS IN BIOLOGY! 2 different sperm from the SAME man I believe, fertilized two different ovums! My teacher said that One had genes that brought out the dominant (traits from the black side of the family on the one baby) and the other brought out dominant traits for other side of the family on the other baby! Its very rare! Both of them are gorgeous though I like the features more on the DARKER skin baby! They stand out more

awwww those girls are so cute. diva loves other people’s kids. will babysit then when they get cranky or poo their panties i’ll give them right back to their parents. reminds me of what my father told us. genetics is a helluva thing. we’re african looking as hell, but with our heritage our kids can come out blue eyed and fair. that can happen to us all. but either twin will not be excluded. they will have the love and support of everyone. family is family period.
26.
oh yes

why they refer to the white girl as blonde and fair skinned and the other as just black…….?

This doesn’t surprise me at all. I’m come from caribbean decent and most if not all families have a mixture of all races. Most people believe when they mix black and white they will come out with a child who “looks” mixed. But your child can take on either side of the family…or better still can turn out looking like some straight up indian child…who people think you adopted!!

i’m so wrong, BUT. I would still want a paternity test. lol. Yes, I understand the concept of mixing and this is possible. But, really, if they are fraternal twins, each egg could have been fertilized by different sperm. That could be some other dude’s baby. I’m always a pessimistic first, sorry.

I don’t think it’s right to say “black genes” dominates. There is so many different races that have mixed up during the centuries to stimpliate that comment.

This isn’t that amazing if you have common sense and understanding of biology. We are all genetically 99% the same and there’s always a small chance to inherit off genes/non dominant genes from parents. I think a lot of people are still racist and try to think Black and White people are so genetically different. Race is still a Social Construction.

“I didn’t see them at first,” added their mother. “They were both whisked away to be checked over and then the midwife came back and placed them both in my arms.”
I don’t know, what if one was switched.

I agree that there’s a possibility she may have been double dippin. There was a case like that on the Maury show where the guy was found to be the father of one of the twins and not the other. If this guy is the father to both twins, it goes to show how random DNA is in terms of heredity.

I tend to not hold the Maury show up to the same standards as justifiable research.
If that is the case all black ppl are uneducatable, pimps from large cities with an insatiable desire for fried chicken according to BET.
The girls are twins, live with it. Get over the race thing. If we don’t no one else will.

Well, there are dominant and recessive genes, but realize that both parents have one white parent, so its very possible that Mom’s white genes and Dad’s white genes came together in the case of Remee. More possible than if only one parent was mixed. It shouldn’t be too difficult to understand. You can have your dad’s eyes and your mom’s hair color, or you can look like your dad’s mini-me and not have any of your mom’s features. It all depends on which way the genes match up when you are conceived, in Remee’s case all her mom’s white genes and all her dad’s white genes happened to come together. She looks like a white verson of her dad, especially the shape of her eyes.

Good luck to this little family and God bless.
This story is not a story that a BLACK couple have had a black and BLOND BLUE EYED baby….this is a 50/50 mixed black/white couple…mixed race EQUALLY so there its perfectly feasable that they got one dark child and a blond child.This is going by the laws of genetics and maths.However its not remotely common bcuz while we see mixed race people all the time…and mixing yet again….you can still detect the black orgin for a couple of generations….so only in this respect is this unusual…but the parents are 50/50 B/W mixed race…they are not fully black.

There is a man named Noah, who had three sons, one black,white, and melato or mixed and their wifes were either white or black and Solomon also had a black wife. Read it in the bible, you will see how he married an Etheopian women. Also Itilians are mixed with black, read the history books.

THis shows how much of an unfaithful individual that person is,and I’m sorry for their boyfriend or girlfriend and they don’t have anything better to do expect to criticize them! Those persons commenting inapproperately, seem to have a low self-esteem and are uncultured and uneducated!

my aunt’s twins are similar, one lighter than the other, but the darker of the two has green eyes and reddish hair, were as Aja the lighter looking one has coarser, darker hair and what I like to call golden eyes. They look really alike though… really alike. My uncle was Nigerian and their mother is Mexican.
Racism drove her to raise her the twins in Nigeria. Sad but they are worshipped.
Love you girls. xxxx

This story is truely amazing, because it comes to show you all things are possible. The family of these two babies will have to love both the baby girls equally without showing favortism. Because when they face the real world they will see a difference in how people treat the black race. And it is sad that one will be subjected to that and the other will have to watch. Because even though we are in the 21st century racism still exist.
