These adorable siblings are thought to be the first ‘black and white’ twins born in the UK - despite coming from the same egg.
Mum Libby Appleby, 37, was told that her unborn babies would look so similar they would need to be “marked with ink” to tell them apart.
But Libby was stunned when Amelia was born with dark skin, black hair and brown eyes - while her sister Jasmine has fair skin, blue eyes and mousey curls.
Amazingly, the siblings are genetically identical despite contrasting skin tones, and are believed to be first of their kind in the country.
Mum sad: 'When they were born, we were flabbergasted, even the doctors couldn’t believe it.
'They look like they’re different races.
'Amelia is the spitting image of her dad, while Jasmine is a mini version of me.’
