After meeting Winfrey in 1996, the twins documented their lives on the reality series Abby & Brittany, which ran for one season in 2012.Since then, they have lived a normal life in Minnesota. After the twins were born, their parents, Patty and Mike Hensel, were given the option of separation surgery, which they felt was too risky.
