Whitney Meyer and Tomas Dean, a multiracial couple from Quincy, Illinois, in the United States, were expecting twins, and when Kalani and Jarani Dean were born, the parents were in for a pleasant surprise. Kalani and Jarani are what in medical terms is called “biracial” twins, indeed a rare occurrence.

Kalani takes after her mom, Whitney, who is Caucasian, and Jarani looks like her dad, Tomas, who is an African American.
