Whitney Meyer and Thomas Dean a multiracial couple from Quincy, Illinois in the USA, were expecting twins, and when Kalani and Jarani Dean were born they are in for a pleasant surprise. They are what in medical terms are called “Biracial” Twins, a rare occurrence.
The odds are 1 to 500 and considering they are identical twins the odds go up to staggering one in a million…So these cute twins are actually “one in a million”. Kalani takes off after her mom Whitney who is Caucasian and Jarani looks like her dad Thomas who is an African American.
Their mom, Whitney, posted a photo of the twins on her Facebook page, and this is what made them go viral.
Kalani and Jarani Dean were born on April 23, 2016. The girls were part of a phenomenon called ‘biracial twins,’ which happens when the parents are from two different ethnic backgrounds and two separate sperm cells fertilize two different eggs.
“At first when they were born, I wanted to believe it but it’s so rare I didn’t think it’d happen to my twins! But sure enough, they’re biracial twins!” Whitney explained to KHOA.
Whitney tells PEOPLE “… in this family, we don’t see color. Love is love.”
The love that these girls are receiving from their parents and everybody is incredible. While they may not look the same, bond between them and their family as a whole is amazing and wonderful, they are incredibly fortunate! The possibilities of a wonderful future is truly something to look forward to.
