On September 18, the 25-year-old twins Carmen and Lupita Andrade, who are conjoined at the head and were born in Mexico, spoke openly to the magazine People. They discussed Carmen’s marriage, their daily life, their health, and the misconceptions people have had about them since they were children.

The Andrade sisters share some organs, like their ribs, hearts, lungs, and stomach, but each one has their own brain, kidneys, and liver. Doctors are reluctant to perform this surgery because they are afraid that it could cause serious nerve problems or even death. After discussing it, Carmen and Lupita decided not to go through with it.

Carmen Andrade met her future husband, American Daniel McCormack, on the dating app Hinge in 2020. Lupita was the one who suggested they meet.

Carmen Andrade says that many people are interested in her marriage. Her sister said she didn’t like it when people asked if she could ever love McCormack as a man. She said that if she and her sister didn’t get along, he wouldn’t be with her sister, who she wants to see happy.

The 28-year-old American said in an interview with the magazine that “people are obsessed with sex.” He says that how he and his wife have sex is nobody’s business.

When reporters asked how they manage to stay close without crossing Lupita’s personal lines, Carmen said that she and her husband mostly talk and laugh. She also said that she doesn’t consider herself a very affectionate person.

The married sister said that people expect couples to show affection for each other all the time.

Lupita Andrade said that when her sister and her husband hug her, it bothers her. She uses headphones and her phone simultaneously.

Carmen Andrade says that people say her husband is only with her for the money, while he cheats on her. She reacts to this with humour, saying she doesn’t have that kind of money.

The Andrade sisters have a YouTube channel and Instagram pages. They say they are cautious about who they accept as an advertiser and will decline those whose services or products don’t suit them. The sisters also work 50 hours a week to earn money, but the article doesn’t say where exactly.
