Conjoined twins Abby and Brittany Hensel's unexpected response to the pictures of them carrying a newborn has everyone saying the same thing.
For those unfamiliar with the sisters and their story, the 35-year-olds are dicephalic parapagus twins, who broke records by becoming one of the first sets of conjoined twins to survive infancy following their birth in March 1990.
Their life has captivated the world, as they share one body of which they control one side each but have two separate heads - Abby is on the right and Brittany is on the left.
They first shot to fame in their own TV series on TLC, called Abby & Brittany, before going on to appear on the Oprah Winfrey Show and remaining in the spotlight ever since.

Last year, even more questions arose when the twins announced that Abby had quietly tied the knot with her partner Josh Bowling back in 2021.
And now, they're making headlines once again after paparazzi pictures of the twins began circulating, seemingly showing them holding a baby.
The photos, which popped up last month, showed Abby and Brittany toting around a baby carrier that looked like it had a newborn inside.
Fans, of course, instantly began speculating and wondered whether the Hensel family was expanding and if so, who the little one belonged to.
Abby and Brittany remained silent on the matter until this week when they shared a cryptic TikTok - a slideshow of the baby snaps.
They wrote in the caption: "Blessed," alongside hashtags such as '#sisterhood' and '#respect', which didn't confirm much for their followers, not that they owe anyone an explanation on their private life.
However, users in the comments of the TikTok have been saying the same thing - that they are still puzzled and have so many questions.
One user simply wrote: "I have so many questions," and their comment has racked up a whopping 900 likes, while a second fan replied: "With all due respect, me too."
Assuming the baby was theirs, a third questioned: "Same like did both feel the birth or just one.. do they consider both of them to be married to him or just one .. like I'm genuinely curious."
Another TikToker queried: "Is this their child? Or baby sitting?"
And adding to the slew of questions, someone else wrote: "So who had the baby? What happens if only one wants to give birth and the other doesn’t."
Meanwhile, others simply congratulated the twins, again assuming the baby was theirs.
One user penned: "Congratulations Abby & Brittany, you are amazing girls and have started another amazing adventure."
And a second chimed in with: "Well one things for sure if this is their little baby he or she is gonna gets lots of kisses.
"I don’t see why they shouldn’t have a child doesn’t matter if baby is adopted or by surrogacy as long as baby is well loved and cared for that’s all that matters… good luck to them."
A final fan agreed: "I'm glad to see you're still out and about! With that said you don't owe anyone, anything. People can wonder all they want, they are not entitled to your lives. I pray the best for you!"
