Chinese Twin Sisters Adopted By Different American Families Finally Reunite After Almost A Decade

What are the odds that twins who get adopted by different families will meet each other again after ten years? Such was the case of Gracie Rainsberry and Audrey Doering who were separated in China from birth. The 10-year old identical Chinese twins have been adopted by two different American families, who did not have a clue about each other's existence until now.

Audrey and Gracie cried and embraced each other when they met on the set of "Good Morning America." The twins lived far from each other as Gracie's family is from Richland, Washington and Audrey's family is from Wausau, Wisconsin. However, the miles and years did not matter when the twins met as they seemed to have quickly developed a rapport.

The discovery of the twins happened after Jennifer Doering tried to look for a Christmas gift for her daughter Aubrey and decided on giving her a photo of her finding advertisement, according to The Straits Times. Since photos of babies placed in a Chinese orphanage were usually published in newspapers as advertisements, Jennifer discovered a photo of Aubrey with her Chinese foster mom.

What really took Jennifer by surprise, however, was the fact of seeing another baby who looked just like her adopted daughter Audrey. Jennifer then immediately asked the help of a Chinese researcher.

"As soon as I had that picture, I was desperate to find out... who that other child was," Doering said. And when she did find out that her daughter has a twin, she said, "Oh, it was unbelievable. I'm like, 'How?' I mean, this is stuff you read about."

Doering checked out Facebook and found Nicole Rainsberry who turned out to be Gracie's mom, as per The Sun. Rainsberry said it was surreal to look at someone who looked like her daughter but who is not really Gracie.

Moreover, it was revealed the twins both had heart problems when they were babies. Audrey had one heart surgery while Gracie had two when she arrived in the United States.

Before meeting her twin sister, Audrey said she felt like something was missing, but now it's complete. Initially, Audrey thought her parents were playing a joke on her until she had the chance to video chat with her twin sister. Meanwhile, ABC News revealed the twins have a lot in common including their love for mac and cheese and chicken Alfredo.
