Two women were left ‘astonished’ after finding out why strangers kept coming up and talking to them.

I mean, it can be pretty weird when someone you don’t know starts chatting away as if you’re mates and it ended up being a frequent occurrence for these mums.

And eventually, they realised they were being repeatedly mistaken for one another despite being strangers themselves. At one point, one of them even mistook the other for herself when she saw a snap on social media.

Jules Batchelor and Robynne DeCaprio live only a 20-minute drive apart in Massachusetts, US.

Jules had shared a side-to-side photo of the pair of them to her dad, who apparently didn’t realise they were two different women and considered changing his glasses prescription.

They were brought together by mutual friends at the gym who claimed they were doppelgängers.

What makes it all more surprising is that Jules already has a twin, Liza, but they aren’t identical – whereas looking at Robynne is like ‘looking in a mirror’.

Robynne wanted to meet in person after people started mixing them up.

“I would be out at a bar or the grocery store and people would say hi to me and I’d have to tell them I’m not Jules,” she described.

“This guy at the grocery store started following me around because he refused to believe me. He was an older guy and he was confused when I kept saying I’m not Jules.”

The two mums ended up meeting at Jules’ personal training studio last year when Robynne spotted her standing outside while she was driving by.

Jules recalled: “We were very friendly and had a good laugh. We are both busy mums but we are certainly friendly and we get a kick from the whole thing. When I met her for the first time I hugged her and said it was amazing to finally meet each other.

“It’s a strange feeling. How does that happen? It’s a weird phenomenon and I’m fascinated by it.”

She did admit it was a little ‘creepy’ as she added: “I have been told I look like her for a really long time so when I finally met her I was astonished when I looked her in the eye.”

Understandably, people have been left baffled by the similarity of the pair and have urged the woman to get a DNA test to see if Robynne is actually Jules’ twin.

However, the pair say they’re definitely not related as they were born only three months apart.

Robynne said: “I think it’s just a coincidence, I don’t think there’s a deeper meaning. It’s definitely funny we live so close to each other.

“I think it’s funny. I don’t see it, but people keep confusing us so we must look alike.”

And Jules added: “We don’t really have the same mannerisms as I do with my twin sister. I know quite a lot about my history and it doesn’t align.

“I’m certain we aren’t related but I’m fascinated with the likeness of people.”
