Myla and Anaya are 10-month-old twins from Manchester, England, but people can’t believe that they are related.
That’s because Myla has taken after her father Kyle Armstrong who is mixed race while Anaya inherited a fair complexion from her mother Hannah Yarker.
According to stats, the odds of a mixed race couple having twins with different skin colouring are a million to one and it was something that their friends joked about before they were born.
Hannah told The Sun: “Our friends joked: ‘What would you do if one came out dark and the other was fair?’ I replied, ‘I don’t think it’s very likely!’
“Now our girls turn heads wherever they go — and it is not just because they are so cute. People always comment, ‘Are they both yours?’ ‘Are they sisters?’ ‘Are they related?’”
But it seems it took a while before the difference was noticeable.
“At first, both the girls had a purple tone to their skin, but they looked darker so I assumed they’d both taken after Kyle.
“But after two weeks, it was clear Myla takes after her dad with dark skin, brown eyes and brunette locks, while Anaya is more of a mummy’s girl with a pale complexion, fair hair and light eyes.”
