Conjoined twin Carmen Andrade marries boyfriend Daniel McCormack in intimate Connecticut ceremony
The private wedding coincided with the couple's fifth anniversary, according to a New York Post report and was confirmed through the twins' shared YouTube channel and in an interview with Today.
Carmen, in a video titled 'Overdue Update!', held up her left hand to display a wedding ring and told viewers that she got married. Her twin sister Lupita playfully adds, 'I did not.'
The twin sisters, who are conjoined at the torso and share several organs including a pelvis and reproductive system, have long shared their lives online with honesty and humor.
According to another People report, Carmen wore a sparkly emerald green dress for her special day, while Daniel matched with a green bow tie and sunflower boutonniere. Speaking about the choice of her dress, Carmen said she didn't wear white, adding that she does not regret the decision.
Carmen and Daniel met in 2020 on the dating app Hinge and Carmen said she appreciated Daniel did not focus on her condition when they first began chatting. The People report quoted Carmen saying that she got a lot of messages from men with fetishes.
'But Daniel was different. He did not make it weird. I have social anxiety, but I felt calm meeting him,' Carmen was quoted as saying. She previously had described their bond as a close friendship with deep love and companionship.
Lupita, per the report, who identifies as asexual and aromantic, has been supportive of her sister's relationship from the start. She said although she did not want to get married, she wanted Carmen to 'settle down' because she knew it was important to her.
The conjoined twins, according to the NY Post, have individual hearts and lungs. In spite of their shared physical connection, they lead emotionally independent lives and often navigate decisions with mutual understanding and compromise.
Carmen and Lupita were born in Mexico but grew up in Connecticut. They first caught the public's eye with TLC's 2020 special 'Conjoined Twins: Inseparable,' and since then, they have been sharing their incredible journey on YouTube and social media. Carmen, who once aspired of becoming a vet tech, is now shifting gears to focus entirely on creating content, including some hilarious comedy sketches penned by Lupita.

How Jaideep Ahlawat Had 40 Rotis And 1.5 Litres Of Milk Every Day With No Weight Gain
Bollywood actor, Jaideep Ahlawat recently opened up about his childhood eating habits and how fast his metabolism was back in the day. He reflected on the time when physical activity as a child balanced out his rather hearty meals. During an interview with Kunal Vijaykar on the show Khaane Mei Kaun Hai on Youtube Jaideep said, "Until 2008, my weight never crossed 70 kgs, even though I am so tall. And I used to eat at least 40 rotis in a day because you are eating and burning it all." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Jaideep Ahlawat (@jaideepahlawat) Being raised in a village in Haryana, Jaideep recalls skipping his lunch and heading to eat straight from the farms. He claimed to consume sugarcane, carrots, guavas, or whatever was the season's produce. Jaideep added, "In the morning, we would have chane or bajre ki roti, or missi roti with lassi, butter, chutney. Just that. And we would have dinner after that. Lunch was prepared but the idea was that in case someone is hungry they can have it, but this wasn't a thing." Milk was a staple in his diet as Jaideep recalls, "Milk was an essential part of my life. Half a liter at least thrice a day. During those years when we were growing up, we weren't allowed to have milk in a glass. Either have it in a lota or jug. And this was very common." Talking about his current food preferences; even today Jaideep prefers a home-cooked meal and rarely ends a day without it. He said, "I have been in Mumbai for 15-16 years now, and I still like eating at home. Even when I go for parties, I come back home and eat my home-cooked food."

Bucket lists, PTA meetings, Ozempic—welcome to online dating for 50-plus Indians
After escaping the death trap of marriage, kids, and draining EMIs, Gen X is coming out to play and choosing to deal with the frustrations of online dating. Even Carrie Bradshaw toyed with it for a couple of episodes in And Just Like That . A regular 50-something's dating app profile is often loaded with unconventional truths. Gen Z need not feel special about modern relationship drama because singles in their 50s are being breadcrumbed, ghosted too. And what's worse, lovebombed into co-parenting kids they didn't raise. Since most midlifers have about two divorces under their belt, they are wandering around the prison of romance pool like hardened criminals. They are swiping and scandalising on dating apps and not even sharing it on social media. Way to rob the masses of juicy lore. 'Father of two, taking a last chance at love,' read the dramatic bios. They don't have time to hold back. Many on Hinge answer the prompt, 'We'll get along if…' not with shared interests but with a list of everything their ex did wrong — 'if you don't scream in traffic, hoard clocks, or snack in bed.' The emotional baggage is bullet-pointed. They might not even have finalised the divorce yet. Putting up selfies taken in the bathroom of their marital homes, they ask their matches not to judge. Statistically, the elders are having more fun online than the people who invented sexting. Beyond the usual Bumble, Hinge, Tinder, and OKCupid, they are also populating the unconventional mating spaces. Think the ethical non-monogamy hotbed of the Feeld app or closed groups on Facebook, catering to all kinds of adventures under the kink umbrella. Sentient armrests Post-50s could almost be a golden age of dating — if middle-aged men weren't doing their best to ruin the fun. Women who refused to resign to the empty-nesters' club find themselves on dates where men rant about their children's spending habits. Lost without the safety of a serving wife, men are hunting for her replacement. 'I am looking for a nurturer,' they'll say, meaning someone to wash their dirty laundry. Jennie Young, a professor of English and Women's and Gender Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay, studied the 'rhetoric of dating' and explained how these men approach women. With lines like 'Don't text too much', 'Don't be difficult', and the smoothest of them all — 'Act like you want me' — they're seeking submission, with benefits. The subreddit of Later Daters — a Netflix show following six golden singles on a series of blind dates — is flooded with one question in different literary styles. Why are older men such losers? Even without a single strand of hair to cover their soft skulls, all they can think about is stringing women along. A Delhi-based 'later dater' in her 50s is sick of men her age talking about ticking their bucket list. 'When it's time for them to kick the bucket soon!' she said. Every other guy seems to be on a mindfulness journey, either raving about Vipassana, cycling marathons, or overselling his post-Ozempic glow-up. All while doing heavy drinking, testing the already battered liver. They all claim to have cracked feminism without ever doing the dishes. Worst of all is that they have no rizz. If there's any hope for romance, they expect the woman to plan it, spark it, and carry it on her back while they sit there like sentient armrests. Also read: That older, wiser guy is undateable—just ask women his age Competing with PTA Then there's the ultimate vibe-killer for midlifers: the parent trap. The man on his 'weekend Papa duty' can't even step out for a coffee date. All his money and time are funnelled toward his kids. When will he have fun? One woman tweeted how she was on a date and her daughter kept blowing up her phone because she couldn't find her socks. Single mothers are anyway called a hectic variety of people to see romantically. Men fear they will end up emptying their pockets, cajoled into being someone's stepdad, but also just a boyfriend to the child's mother. It's called a lose-lose situation because the moment the gentleman chimes in with an opinion about his girlfriend's offspring, he's told to slow his roll. While it's an admirable quality from a parenting perspective, it can be pretty annoying for the childfree partner who just wants to go out without competing with PTA meetings. One tormented girlfriend in her 40s only gets to see her partner on the second weekend of the month. She's also not allowed to call him on his phone without asking. She has shared custody of her man. If the dynamic was already that messy and volatile, there's the ex-factor. The former partners, with a history spanning a decade or two, are not NPC. They're either too involved or buried (metaphorically) under the living room sofa like a sworn enemy no one talks about. Is that why middle-agers end up dating younger? Much like the middle-aged men they've long endured, women now finally have a progressive dating pool of their own — one that lets them swipe right on younger men, skip the boredom, and avoid babysitting the oldies. Forty-nine-year-old Charlize Theron recently made headlines for hitting it off with a 26-year-old and bragging about it. She's an inspiration. Clearly, the Gen X dating game is enviable — even with its grown-up fuss. The lucky ones aren't even compromising on closet space, and somehow, they're still living a fairy tale. The love life of a 58-year-old professor in Mumbai now looks like the third act of a Nora Ephron movie. Right after matching on Bumble, the first phone call she had with her now-boyfriend — a 60-year-old who never married — lasted five hours. By the third date, they were chilling by the beach in Dapoli. 'He's up for fun and doesn't snore,' she said when counting the two best qualities of her partner. The couple has been in an LAT (living apart together) relationship for the past two years. It works like a dream. This article is part of a series of columns on modern dating in India—the good, the bad and the cuddly. Views are personal. The author tweets @ratanpriya4. (Edited by Prasanna Bachchhav)
