The 34-year-old, who along with Brittany appeared on US reality series Abby & Brittany, posted a compilation of photos from the big day in a TikTok video, backed by Taylor Swift’s “But Daddy I Love Him”.

Abby and Josh’s 2021 union at the Jerome Event Centre in Delano, Minnesota, didn’t become known to the public until Today.com obtained public records confirming the nuptials earlier this year.

Abby reportedly did not list her twin as a witness to her marriage. Abby and Josh instead listed the twins’ other sister, Morgan Hensel, and a person named Cosmo Naut as the witnesses.

The twins first gained national attention in 1996 when they appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show. Picture: Facebook

The twins first gained national attention in 1996 when they appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show, and they eventually got their own TLC show in 2012.

Abby and Brittany are dicephalic conjoined twins, which means they have two heads side-by-side on one torso, sharing the same organs below the waist as well as the same bloodstream.

Brittany has control of their left arm and leg, while Abby has control of the right side.
