Conjoined twins Abby and Brittany Hensel responded to critics on TikTok, particularly addressing the backlash surrounding Abby’s marriage to Army veteran Josh Bowling in November 2023.
Their TikTok comeback, months after revealing their marriage in late 2023, addressed the sudden viral interest in their wedding clips early in 2024. Despite some harsh comments on social media, they remain unfazed.

In one TikTok video, the twins showcased statues of conjoined figures from ancient civilizations, hinting at their enduring presence and resilience against negativity.
Another video featured a voiceover targeting critics: “This is a message to all the haters out there. If you don’t like what I do, but you watch everything I’m doing, you’re still a fan.”
Abby and Brittany Hensel first captured the public’s attention on The Oprah Winfrey Show in 1996, later starring in their TLC reality show, Abby & Brittany, in 2012.
Born with dicephalus, a rare condition leading to their conjoined state, they share a bloodstream, several vital organs, and genitalia. Abby manages the right side, and Brittany the left. Their parents declined separation surgery at birth due to its risks.
