A Glimpse Into 22-year-old Conjoined Twins ‘One-Body’ World!

These extraordinary conjoined twins are making major headway in their lives as they enter early-adulthood. They are learning to tolerate one another, work together as two individuals, but as one body. They share the same world spending all their days together—living a unique life as conjoined twins.

Abigail and Brittany Hensel are conjoined twins with a medical condition called, Dicephalic Parapagus. They are fused together at the torso, and share one body. At birth, doctors told their parents they wouldn’t live for more than a few hours—miraculously they are now full-grown adults today. For their entire lives—from the time they were infants, through childhood, through the difficult teen years, and through to today—the twins have had to struggle to overcome many challenges.

Now at the age of 22, Abby and Brittany are sharing the next chapter of their lives with the whole world in a new TV reality series. Their lives will be aired as they make the leap from being students to young professionals, and share an adventure touring across Europe with their friends.

£25,000 Debt As Wife-to-be Dumped Groom For Another Woman

A groom is facing a bill of £25,000 after his wife-to-be left him for another WOMAN just six weeks before their wedding.

Heartbroken Adam Vickers, 24, had planned to marry childhood sweetheart Laura O’Callaghan, 24, in a beautiful rural venue and they had already sent out invites, hired a photographer, DJ and Bentley for the bride.

The couple of 10 years had even booked their honeymoon to Thailand, bringing the total cost up to £25,000.

However, just weeks before the big day, plumber Adam discovered his partner had been having an affair with Sinead Keziah.

Dyne Suh was looking forward to a Presidents’ Day weekend stay at a mountain cabin in California with her fiancé and friends, but her Airbnb host swiftly canceled the reservation. Suh explained that the host, in a racially insensitive exchange, praised President Trump and denied the stay because Suh was Asian.

Suh, a law student studying race relations, hails from Riverside, Calif., and was looking to get away with a pair of friends and her dogs back in February. In a report by Los Angeles-based NBC affiliate KNBC, Suh claims that the owner of the home denied the stay because of Suh’s race just as she was on her way to Running Springs, Calif., in snowy weather.

The Pentagon says A U.S. Navy aircraft carrier strike group is departing the South China Sea to provide a physical presence near the Korean Peninsula.

The U.S. Pacific Command directed the carrier group to sail north to the western Pacific after departing Singapore on Saturday, according to a Navy news release. The strike group includes the aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson, with support from several missile destroyers and missile cruisers.

The story of the "Mowgli girl" in India received a twist when two men claiming to be her uncles approached a care home for the mentally ill where she is currently being cared for.

The girl, initially reported to be about 8 years of age but now believed to be 11 years, was rescued from a forest in the northern state of Uttar Pradesh in late January. Media reports had suggested she was being taken care of by a troop of monkeys in the forest. The girl walked mostly on all fours and could not speak any human language.

But authorities and doctors have denied these reports and suggested that she could be mentally ill and could have been in the forest for only a few days before she was rescued.

Tahj Oliver knew he wanted to ask his close friend to go with him as soon as his heard about the special needs prom at East Oswego High School in Illinois.

Oliver, 18, befriended fellow senior Evelyn Araujo, who has cerebral palsy, when they were sophomores and the pair hit it off.

“It just started one day. I just said hi to her and that one day she could not stop smiling,” Oliver told InsideEdition.com.

They eventually began texting and became close. So when Oliver heard about the prom, he quickly started planning his “prom-posal” for Araujo.

The 18-year-old held up a giant pink poster bearing the words: 'Can I have a pass to prom?' as Araujo entered one of the school’s classrooms last month.

Natashia Corrigan of Melbourne, Australia, broke records by giving birth to a son weighing in at twice the national average.

Fourteen-pound Brian Jr. was born in January at Mercy Hospital in Victoria. “I’ve always wanted a little fat baby and I’ve got a big one!” Corrigan told 7News after the delivery.

Almost more astounding than the baby’s size is the fact his mother delivered him without an epidural. “I think I was in a bit of shock because the birth was natural,” said Corrigan, “I only had gas so I was still in a bit of shock just from that.”

A woman aboard a Turkish Airlines flight from Conakry, Guinea, to Ouagadougou in Burkina Faso went into labor yesterday and had her child before the plane could land.

Nafi Diaby gave birth to a girl named Kadiju with the help of the flight crew; photos of them have been shared on social media by the airline with the caption “Welcome on board Princess! Applause goes to our cabin crew!”
