Twins separated at birth meet, get married

So sad........such a tragedy...sigh.....reminds me of some sad korean drama.
sob sob.......you can read more of it here.

LONDON - Twins who were separated at birth got married without realizing they were brother and sister, a lawmaker said, urging more information be provided on birth certificates for adopted children.

A court annulled the British couple's union after they discovered their true relationship, Lord David Alton said.

"Everyone has a right to knowledge about their lineage, genealogy and identity. And if they don't, then it will lead to cases of incest," Alton said during a telephone interview Friday.

Alton first revealed details of the unusual case last month during a five-hour debate about a bill that would change regulations about human embryology.

"I was recently involved in a conversation with a High Court judge who was telling me of a case he had dealt with," Alton said according to a transcript of the Dec. 10 debate. "It involved the normal birth of twins who were separated at birth and adopted by separate parents.

"They were never told that they were twins," Alton said. "They met later in life and felt an inevitable attraction, and the judge had to deal with the consequences of the marriage that they entered into and all the issues of their separation."

Then the science must be making a mistake. They said siblings can't be falling in love with each other due to the hormone in us...something like that.

blueapple: ya i know!! such a hard one to get out from!

hcfoo: hmm...well, "Love" is a confusing word. Perhaps the feelings they have for each other were actually brotherly-sisterly love..somehow the connection must be there to cause them to like one-another.
