A mother-of-two has opened up about having twin babies with different skin colours while appearing on Good Morning Britain today.
Chantelle Broughton, 29, from Nottingham, who is biracial with a Nigerian maternal grandfather, shares babies Ayon and Azira with partner Ashton, who is half Jamaican.
She told GMB hosts Kate Garraway and Ben Shephard that having twins with different complexions wasn’t a shock at first, as they were ‘quite similar in complexion’.
However, Chantelle noted, as the twins who were born in April have started to get older, her daughter Azirah, has a noticeably darker complexion and brown eyes, while son Ayon has paler skin and green eyes.
And the 29-year-old says strangers are often ‘shocked’ when they see the twins, saying they haven’t seen siblings with such different skin tones before.

She explained: ‘People stop you anyway when they see you’ve got a double pram because everyone just seems to love twins.
‘And then when they notice, they’re just like “are they twins?… oh wow one’s dark one’s light. That’s so unusual, I’ve never see that before”.

Doting mother Chantelle also revealed that the babies share a close bond already, and will often reach out to touch each other’s hand
‘Everyone just seems to be really shocked….I think not many people have seen twins of a different complexion.’
Also appearing on the segment was Dr Amir Khan, who spoke about why some twins with biracial parents have different skin tones.
