1. Family reunion
2. Twins become friends
3. Strange coincidence

The stories about identical twins having nearly identical lives are often dramatic and fascinating. But sometimes things go differently.

Twin sisters never knew about each other’s existence because they were divided somewhat 20 years ago. When one of the girls entered the University of Wisconsin-Madison, strange things began to happen.

Shirley Phillips had no idea that Kora Bell was her twin sister until university students started taking her for another girl.

Shirley and Kora came from different social backgrounds. Shirley’s parents were very well-off and she lived in Central New York. Kora was brought up in a family of Lithuanian origin on a farm not far from Milwaukee.

None of them had any feeling they had a twin until Shirley came to live in Wisconsin in 2014.

Complete strangers started to recognise Shirley in the street. She got even more confused and astonished: a friend of hers announced that he had got acquainted with someone who was the mirror image of her. He insisted that they were sisters.

The girl’s name was Kora and she attended another university in Milwaukee. They first got in touch with each other through the Internet. It turned out they had been adopted and were exactly the same height, just over 5 feet, very slim, with blue eyes, dark hair and fair skin.

Finally, one girl e-mailed the other a photo. They had such exact likeness that no doubt remained — they were identical twins.

Since their first meeting, the girls have been best friends.
