Identical twins' joyous reunion crumbles amidst business strife
Zhang Li and Cheng Keke, from the Henan province of China, were separated immediately after birth. After 30 years of searching, they finally found each other through social media. The joy of their reunion was immense, but their happiness soon turned into conflict.
According to the "Daily Mail," the sisters first met in 2021 when they noticed an uncanny resemblance to one another online. After conducting a DNA test, it was revealed that they are identical twins, and their families confirmed they were separated immediately after birth. Initially, their relationship blossomed with joy and enthusiasm, and their story quickly gained popularity in China, attracting media and online attention.
Due to the growing interest in their situation, the sisters decided to embark on a joint business venture in the e-commerce industry, hoping for success due to their unique connections.
Unfortunately, their collaboration did not last long as tensions quickly arose between them, leading to numerous conflicts. Differences in their work approach and visions for the future caused their relationship, which was meant to be the start of a new chapter in their lives, to become a series of misunderstandings.
The twins severed contact
Keke accused Li of leaving live broadcasts without notice and disappearing for several days. "She never said anything when she left, and I could never find her. That's not the kind of work attitude I like," said Keke, as quoted by the "Daily Mail."
Li, in turn, blamed Keke for their business failures, claiming they lost about €78,000. "So I told her directly that I wouldn't be doing live-streaming with her anymore," Li stated.
After their unsuccessful online venture, Li opened a shop in her hometown of Dengfeng. Keke came to support her, but the conflict worsened, particularly regarding management and finances. In January 2023, there was a final confrontation, after which Keke severed contact with Li. According to the "Daily Mail," since then, the sisters have not maintained any relationship.
