According to The Guardian, Audrey Sandbank, author of Twin and Triplet Psychology said separation could be a major issue for twins especially identical twins.

“One twin may become independent and the one that was previously dominant is upset that they can’t be as assertive as they once were,” Sandbank was quoted as saying.

A young woman on TikTok known as Patricia Boity went viral after she posted a heart-wrenching video of her reuniting with her twin brother after having been apart for “many years”. The short clip has already gained over 2 million views, 1.8 million likes, and about 43 000 comments within just three days since it was uploaded.

 

 

In the video, the TikTokker can be seen interacting with her twin brother for a short while before she wraps her arms him. It’s unknown why or how the twins were separated from each other, however, what is evident is that they lived two different lives.

While the TikTokker dressed clean and put together in her cute outfit, it was obvious that her twin brother had been struggling to make ends meet. Nonetheless, the strong bond between the twins was the star of the clip. When the duo finally embraced each other, they had TikTok users weeping in the comment section.
