The couples are proud parents of “quaternary twins”, named Jax and Jet. The 25-year-old Virginia-based sisters, Briana, and Brittany Deane became pregnant at the same time and gave birth to boys who are genetically both brothers and cousins.
The two babies were born nearly three months apart. But since they share the same DNA, they are also brothers in a phenomenon dubbed “quaternary twins.” Brittany who is married to Josh Salyers and is the mom to Jett shared that their baby’s unique situation has made the families closer than ever.
Moreover, Quaternary twins are incredibly rare and are born when one set of identical babies has a child with another set of identical twins. While still cousins, the children genetically appear closer to siblings born to the same parents.
The twins reportedly also share their home and bank accounts together

Earlier, the couples shared a video of them with their babies. In the video, the babies were heard saying, “Two daddas.” When they were asked what about their mothers, they said, “Two mommas” with joy. “When you realize your parents are ALL identical twins!” the video was captioned.
Reportedly, Jeremy revealed that he feels he is a father to Jett as well. “I feel like I’m Jett’s parent and I think [Josh] feels the same way about Jax. We’re raising the kids together so it feels like just one family unit.” While opening up about their unique family situation Jeremey revealed that he and josh vowed to each other that they would get hitched to another set of twins. “We got lucky enough to find them, we couldn’t be happier,” he concluded.
