You might think your favourite celebrity is a true one off, but these stars all have secret TWINS! What's better than one celebrity? A celebrity and their twin, of course! And if you feel the same, you're going to love this list of stars who have secret twins (or at least twins who aren't also famous!).

From twins who make you do double takes, to twins who don't even look related, this is the only guide to celebrity twins you need in your life as we celebrate National Siblings Day on Saturday 10th April.

Celebrities who have secret twins:

Scarlett Johansson

Scarlett Johansson may be one of the most famous women on the planet, but one thing you might not know about her is that she has a twin brother.

Scarlett Johansson and her twin brother Hunter

Scarlett Johansson's twin brother is called Hunter. The pair are obviously very close, and Scarlett often takes Hunter as her plus one to premieres and awards ceremonies. SO CUTE!

Gisele Bündchen

Yes Gisele Bündchen - possibly the most drop-dead gorgeous woman in the world - has a twin!

Gisele Bündchen and her twin sister Patricia

And while Gisele's twin sister Patricia may not be a world famous supermodel, she's still insanely gorgeous. What a pair!

Aaron Carter

Remember Aaron Carter (you know, Backstreet Boys' Nick Carter's precocious younger brother)? Well it turns out he didn't arrive in this world alone...

Aaron Carter and his twin sister Angel

Because Aaron Carter has a twin sister called Angel! The pair are so close that Aaron walked Angel down the aisle at her 2014 wedding. Now that's real #TwinGoals

Ashton Kutcher

Ashton Kutcher (or Mr Mila Kunis as we like to call him) has it all. A great career, a massive house (we assume), cute kids, a gorgeous wife... and a twin!

Ashton Kutcher and his twin brother Michael

Ashton's twin brother Michael was born with cerebral palsy. Talking about his twin, Ashton said, "I was born a twin and from the moment I came into this world I had to share it with someone. I shared every birthday, every Christmas, I shared my bedroom, I shared my clothes, I shared everything I had in this world and I didn't know that there was another way because I always had my brother with me." So lovely.

Alanis Morisette

So... it turns out Canadian crooner Alanis Morissette has a twin brother. Is that ironic? Probably not, tbh...

Alanis Morisette and her twin brother Wade

Alanis' twin brother Wade Imre Morissette is also a recording artist, and his music blends indie rock/pop music with Sanskrit and English chants (trippy). Being super-cool obviously runs in their genes.

Laverne Cox

Orange Is The New Black star and LGBT advocate Laverne Cox may seem like a true one off, but it turns out she's a twin.

Laverne Cox and her twin brother M Lamar

You won't be surprised to hear that Laverne Cox's twin brother M Lamar is just as fabulous as she is. Not only did he play Sophia (Laverne's OITNB character) in some pre-transition flashback scenes, but he also lives in New York where he works as a composer, musician, performer and multimedia artist.

Olly Murs

X Factor warbler Olly Murs has a twin brother Ben, who is now sadly estranged from the rest of the family.

Olly Murs and his twin brother Ben

Ben - who no longer talks to his twin brother or his parents and blames Olly's career for tearing the family apart - recently took his wife's surname, changing his name to Ben Hart. So sad.

Mo Farah

Olympic hero Mo Farah (or should that be Sir Mo Farah - fancy!) has a twin brother called Hassan.

Mo Farah and his twin brother Hassan

Tragically, Mo and his twin brother Hassan didn't see each other for 12 years after they were separated by war in their homeland of Somalia at the age of eight. Talking about his bond with his brother in his autobiography Twin Ambitions, Mo wrote: "There's this special connection that the two of you have. You instinctively feel what the other person is going through – even if you live thousands of miles apart."

Rosie Fortescue

Posh Made In Chelsea totty and all round cool girl Rosie Fortescue is one of, er, two!

Rosie Fortescue and her sister Lily

Like Rosie (who runs a blog and has her own jewellery line), her twin sister Lily Fortescue is also a fashionable business woman, and in 2016 she launched a dating app called Ciao. Nice work, ladies!

Siva Kaneswaran

The Wanted's Siva Kaneswaran not only has KILLER cheek bones, he also has a twin!

Siva Kaneswaran and his brother Kumar

Here's Siva, er, twinning with his twin brother, Kumar. Looking good, boys!

Vin Diesel

Not only does Vin Diesel have a twin brother, but his real name is Mark Sinclair! We know! Like, Vin, who even are you?!

Vin Diesel and his twin brother Paul

And as you can see, while Vin (or should that be Mark?) got the fame and money, his brother Paul got the hair. I think we can call that even, right?

Which celebrity do you think most looks like their twin?
