White mother whose partner is half-Jamaican has twins with completely different skin tones

A mother was stunned after giving birth to million-to-one twins with drastically different skin tones.

Chantelle Broughton, 29, claims she is frequently questioned if her babies, Ayon and Azirah, are hers after giving birth to them in April.

After having her son Ayon, who had light skin and green eyes, delivered in Nottingham City Hospital, Chantelle was surprised to have her daughter Azirah, who had a considerably darker complexion and brown eyes.

Such births are so uncommon that geneticists originally believed them to be one in a million.

Chantelle, an auxiliary nurse, claims she appears white but is mixed race since her maternal grandfather is Nigerian, but her father, Ashton, is half Jamaican and half Scottish.

The mother-of-three stated that the twins did not seem too different from each other at birth, but that as the weeks passed, Azirah’s skin color became ‘darker and darker’.

She claims the four-month-old twins have ‘completely contrasting’ personalities yet get along nicely.

She is so delighted they came out the way they are – their own unique little family, said Chantelle, from Nottingham.

Azirah was somewhat darker at birth, although it was difficult to tell. She has now grown darker than her father over the course of several weeks.

Every few weeks, friends and family express surprise.

Azirah is quite relaxed and easygoing, whereas Ayon craves a lot more attention.

He is always chattering and wants to be rocked. Azirah doesn’t do things like that very often.

However, she’s observed that they’re glancing at each other more and smiling more.

She believes they will remain this way and believes their hair will be different as well.

Azirah’s hair will be thick and curly, whereas Ayon’s will be altogether different. The texture change is already noticeable.

When the twins go out, Chantelle says they get a lot of attention, and she jokes that people think they have separate fathers.

When you have a double pushchair, individuals tend to notice you more regardless, she remarked.

Individuals, she claims, do a “double-take” when they see her walking about with Ayon and Azirah.

People simply stop and exclaim, “Oh my gosh,” and they look completely different. People have asked her, “Are they both her?” she stated.

So far, Chantelle has said that individuals have responded favourably to the twins, with several ‘elderly ladies’ expressing to her the twins are wonderful.

A lot of the time, individuals don’t want to talk about it, but when they tell them, they think it’s crazy since it doesn’t happen very frequently, she added.

She wouldn’t have it any other way, it’s absolutely distinctive, she says.
