You must be living under a rock if you don’t know who the most beautiful twins in the world are. Ava Marie and Leah Rose, better known as the Clements Twins, have taken the world by storm with their striking beauty. This has turned them into influencers at the age of nine, making them modeling icons in the process.

Despite their popularity, the ride has been smooth or easy. Their mother has been criticized for exploiting their looks. They’ve also had to find a way to balance their fame, the work that goes with it, and being children. Here we detail their rise to fame and the challenges they face.

A Beautiful Marriage

Doesn’t this just look like a couple who is going to make beautiful babies? Jaqi and Kevin Clements, a swimming coach currently working for JSerra Catholic High School, Married in 2003. They didn’t immediately have children, and five years after getting married, they had their first child, a boy named Chase.

Despite taking so long to have their first child, the couple appeared to go into a baby-making mode. Not long after Chase was born, the couple discovered that they were pregnant again. This time it was double trouble too, as Jaqi was carrying twins.

Coming Early, Just Like They Always Do

If carrying twins wasn’t hard enough, Jaqi was in for an even bigger surprise when the twins decided that they were coming earlier than expected. They came more than a month earlier on 7 July 2010, but they were born perfectly healthy.

The twins are a part of 11.4% of children who are born prematurely around the world. That’s roughly 15 million births worldwide, which in turn equates to about one in 10 of births. Of those 15 million, 80% percent of them are unplanned premature births. According to the Jaqi, the twins’ birth was announced, which is so like them.

Compliments On Top Of Compliments

Ever heard of the saying, “a face only a mother could love”? It’s not uncommon for parents to think their kids are the most beautiful people in the world. While that is sometimes debatable with some kids, sometimes, some parents do have a point.

In Ava Marie and Leah Rose’s case, their parents’ admiration was backed up by friends and family.  The twins would often get compliments from others, again not an uncommon thing for babies, but it did eventually reach a point where it was more than people saving face.
