U.K. Couple Welcomes Twins - One Black, One White
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Experts say the chances of having twins with different skin colors is about one in a million – but it has happened again for the second time in Europe, in four months.
This time, a couple from Bristol, England, welcomed a son Orlando, who inherited his mother’s Jamaican coloring, and a daughter Natalia, who has blonde hair and blue eyes, like her father, the Daily Mirror reported.
Parents Tracey-Ann and Andrew Balasco told the newspaper the twins created quite a stir at the hospital when they were born three months ago.

This news comes one week after a couple in Germany announced the arrival of their twin boys, one black and one white, who are also the off-spring of a mixed-raced couple.
