Irish mammy loses it as twin sons surprise her with a visit

She got a serious fright...

There’s nothing like the feeling of coming home.

Between sleeping in your old bed, messing with your brothers and sisters, petting the dog and your parents force feeding you copious amounts of food, there’s certainly no place that can replicate the security and cosy feelings we all have when we return to the main nest.

As work, friends, responsibilities and commitments can take a lot of effort out of us, it’s always nice to go home, recharge your batteries and most importantly, see the aul’ pair.

One Irish mammy who was recently reunited with her sons, is Anne Duncan.

Her identical twin sons, Shane and James are both away from home, living in New York and London respectively.

According to JOE.ie, James was at home spending time with the family when the mischevious pair decided to play a trick. Shane, who was thought to still be in New York decided to fly home and surprise Mammy Duncan with his twin in the best way possible.

A family friend reportedly asked James to pick up some tools to fix up something up in the garden, but as James went inside he swapped his t-shirt and tracksuit bottoms with Shane, hidden inside.

Mammy and Daddy Duncan were waiting in the garden chatting before they suddenly realised that the twins had reunited in their garden and mother Anne’s reaction is nothing short of epic.

She blurts out “what the F**K” as she looks in disbelief, and as she’s comforted by her sons she bursts into tears of joy. Awww.
