    The pair were reportedly joined at the head and therefore shared a blood supply and nearly 30% of their entire brain.

    This is said to be the rarest way for the twins to be conjoined to one another and therefore make up nearly two to six percent of cases seen worldwide.

    “When asked why, he said that he knew from a very young age that he should have been a boy. But the fear of the world judging him and his sister left him with no option but to keep it all inside”- sources added.
