In April 2022, Englishwoman Chantelle Broughton, 29, gave birth to twins, Azirah and Ayon. The twins looked exactly alike at first, but as they developed, some noticeable distinctions became apparent.
While Ayon’s complexion remained pale and his eyes remained a stunning blue, Azirah’s skin darkened and her eyes took on a warm brown hue. Their mother found these shifts fascinating and felt that they emphasized the special qualities of their development.
Because of their multiple racial backgrounds, Chantelle and her husband’s children have a diversified genetic make-up. While Chantelle’s paternal grandfather was Scottish and had Jamaican connections, her maternal grandfather was Nigerian. The twins’ unique physical characteristics were impacted by their multiracial ancestry.
Because of the twins’ dissimilar looks, Chantelle frequently gets questions from people while the family is out. Even though they are identical twins, Azirah and Ayon have different personalities: Azirah is quiet and obedient, whilst Ayon is energetic.
According to experts, differences in the color of a twin’s skin and eyes can be caused by genetic factors, especially in families where one of the parents is not white. Ayon and Azirah exhibit astonishing and gorgeous diversity, which is the result of unusual genetic pairings in Chantelle’s family.
TV Star with Māori Face Tattoo Shuts Down Haters in Epic Response!
A TV presenter with a traditional Māori face tattoo has calmly replied to negative comments from a viewer, proudly standing up for her cultural heritage and identity.
Facial tattoos often spark debates online. Some people think tattoos should only be on the body, while others understand and appreciate their cultural importance.
Oriini Kaipara, 41, made history when she became a newsreader for New Zealand’s Newshub. She is the first primetime TV news presenter to wear a moko kauae, a special facial tattoo for Māori women.
The Māori are the indigenous people of mainland New Zealand. They see moko kauae as important symbols of their heritage and identity. These tattoos, traditionally on the lips and chin, show a woman’s family ties, leadership, and honor her lineage, status, and abilities.

Despite receiving praise, one viewer named David expressed his dislike for Kaipara’s moko kauae in an email to Newshub.
He wrote, “We continue to object strongly to you using a Māori newsreader with a moku [moko] which is offensive and aggressive looking. A bad look. She also bursts into the Māori language which we do not understand. Stop it now,” according to the Daily Mail.
But Kaipara didn’t let David’s negative words stop her. She bravely shared screenshots of his messages on her Instagram story and responded calmly.
“Today I had enough. I responded. I never do that. I broke my own code and hit the send button,” she wrote on her Instagram story alongside a screenshot of David’s message.
Kaipara didn’t just share screenshots of David’s email, she also responded to him. She explained that his complaint wasn’t valid because she hadn’t broken any rules for TV.
She also corrected David’s spelling mistake. He called her tattoo a “moku” instead of “moko”.
In her email back to him, Kaipara said, “I think you don’t like how I look on TV. But tattoos and people with them aren’t scary or bad. We don’t deserve to be treated badly because of them.”
She asked him to stop complaining and to try to understand better. She even joked that maybe he should go back to the 1800s if he couldn’t accept people with tattoos.
Despite David’s negative words, Kaipara says she mostly gets nice comments, and mean ones are rare.
In an interview with the New Zealand Herald, Kaipara talked about how it’s important to have more Māori people in important jobs. She said, “The fact that my existence makes some people upset shows why we need more Māori people in every job.”
Kaipara’s calm response reminds us how important it is to be proud of who you are, even when people are mean. She’s inspiring others to be proud of themselves and stand up to unfair treatment.
