Lucy added: "We're worried in the back of our heads that we can't give him children because we need to fall pregnant together, at exactly the same time."
The twins take extreme measures to live their lives identically. The duo shower together, take bites at the same time, and even measure out their food.
But they've hit a roadblock, because starting a family is the one thing they can't control.
