We usually think of our favorite movie stars as one-of-a-kind, but this isn't always the case. You've seen them on TV, on the big screen, and maybe even center stage at a sold-out arena, but there may be someone you've been missing all along — their twin.
Some celebrity twins are extremely well-known, such as Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, Tia and Tamera Mowry, and Dylan and Cole Sprouse. In the case of those twins, they shared similar goals, which led to them becoming both household names.
But what happens when one twin desires the limelight while the other prefers a normal life? So you get a pair of less well-known celebrity twins. Some twins do not become famous because of a lack of opportunity or interest. People have no idea that many actors and models have fraternal or even identical twins. This is where we step in. Scroll down to check out some of Hollywood's most surprising celebrity twins you may never know.
Caroline Paul wrote a memoir about her time as a firefighter and has since found success as a writer, whereas Alexandra now primarily works as a wellness coach.
For a time, both London brothers had successful careers, with Jeremy landing a long-running role on TV's Party of Five and Jason appearing in films such as To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar and the sequel to Carrie. Unfortunately, their careers were short-lived, and both men have had troubled lives, including drug and alcohol problems and arrests.
Joseph is the twin brother of conservationist Jacob Fiennes, who manages the large country estate of Holkham in Norfolk, England.
While Rachel has not pursued a career in acting, she does work in the Entertainment industry behind the scenes. She has worked as a post-production supervisor on numerous television shows, including Nurses and Pretty Hard Cases.
Leslie Hamilton Freas died in August 2020 at the age of 63.
As they struggled to find roles after the end of Little House on the Prairie, the twins both retired from acting and returned to school. Lindsay went on to become an equine iridologist, while Sidney is a horse breeder and former professional rodeo rider.
Kelly Donovan has a few other film credits, both as an actor and as a crew member. Brendon's career suffered after Buffy ended, and he has since received the most attention for his high-profile arrests for alcohol, drugs, and spousal abuse.
The action star (real name Mark Vincent) has a twin brother named Paul Vincent, about whom little is known. Paul wants to live a simple life away from the spotlight, so the fact that he and Vin are not identical probably helps.sib
