Conjoined twins Brittany and Abby Hensel have spoken out after they were spotted with a newborn baby.
Rumours have been circulating that the twins and Abby's husband, Josh Bowling, may have become parents after they were seen running errands with a baby.
Abby and Brittany were first photographed with a baby on August 14, carrying the little one in its car seat, in photos published by TMZ.
They were then spotted a fortnight later, running errands with Abby's husband, Josh, with TMZ reporting that they had been dropping their dog off at the groomers.

They were later spotted near the school where they work, as reported by The US Sun.
Over the weekend, the sisters shared a TikTok featuring a compilation of images of them with a baby over the last few weeks.
The video was captioned 'Blessed', meanwhile 'sisterhood' and 'respect' were also hashtagged.

Neither Abby, Brittany, nor Josh has spoken about the identity of the little one, or whether they've welcomed a newborn.
UNILAD has reached out to the twins for comment.
Abby and Brittany haven't recently commented on whether they hoped to become parents, but during an interview in 2006, in Joined for Life: Abby & Brittany Turn 16, Brittany said: "Yeah, we're going to be moms. We haven't thought about how being moms is going to work yet."
Abby hit the headlines last year when it was revealed she had married Josh in 2021. The ceremony was kept out of the public eye, but the pair shared images from the special day on TikTok, showing Abby and Brittany together in a wedding dress alongside Josh.

Abby and Brittany are conjoined twins, known as dicephalic parapagus twins, which gives them the appearance of having two heads and one body.
It's a very rare condition and only a few people with it survive until adulthood, and it is considered better not to try to separate the twins.
Each woman has her own heart, stomach, spine and lungs, and they each control one leg and one arm of the conjoined body.

The twin sisters can eat, write, and complete other tasks separately, though tasks that require the use of multiple limbs simultaneously require precise coordination between the pair.
Working together, the sisters can drive a car, play the piano, ride a bike and participate in sports, and they also work together in their jobs as teachers.
Each of them has their own driver's license and had to pass their test separately, as the state of Minnesota requires both of them to hold their own license.
