Multiple pregnancies are rare occurrences, with the likelihood of having twins estimated at only 2%, and the chances of quadruplets calculated at one case in several tens of millions. However, miracles do happen. Fourteen years ago, during her first ultrasound, Julia discovered that she was carrying four embryos in her womb at once.
The situation was complex because the children were developing in the same placenta, and there were no guarantees of their health at birth. Julia was even advised to terminate the pregnancy, but she adamantly refused.
Following a caesarean section, it was revealed that all the girls were healthy, although two of them initially had low birth weights, which quickly normalized. However, the most remarkable aspect was not just that Julia gave birth to quadruplets, but that all four girls bore an uncanny resemblance to each other. This similarity has persisted over time, with the girls constantly being mistaken for one another.
Those around them are consistently intrigued by the unusual family, often attempting to discern differences between the girls, which are few and far between. They even wear identical glasses.
The girls themselves are content with their situation, as their shared appearance has garnered them popularity. They have already received offers for collaborations with several clothing brands.

Back in 2001, while busy filming The Last Castle, doctors discovered a harmless brain tumor behind his left ear. What’s intriguing is that Ruffalo had a strange dream before this, almost like a warning. He felt compelled to see a doctor urgently after the dream, even though he didn’t have any obvious symptoms except for a minor ear problem.
«It wasn’t like any other dream I had had. It wasn’t even a voice, it was just pure knowledge: ’You have a brain tumor, and you have to deal with it immediately,’» Rufallo shared.
Ruffalo had to make a hard decision in order to protect his wife.
Ruffalo was hesitant to worry his wife, who was about to have their first child, so he kept the news to himself until after the birth. When he finally told her, she was understandably upset saying, «I always knew you were gonna die young!»
Ruffalo underwent surgery to remove the tumor, but it wasn’t without risks. There was a chance he could lose his hearing or have facial paralysis. Sadly, he did lose his hearing in left ear permanently.
«Take my hearing, let me keep the face, and just let me be the father of this kid,» The Incredible Hulk actor recalled thinking at the time.
Despite these challenges, Ruffalo didn’t let them hold him back. He continued his acting career and even received his fourth Academy Award nomination. Alongside his professional success, he treasures his role as a father to his three children: Keen, Bella Noche, and Odette.
Mark Ruffalo’s heartfelt tribute to his wife, Sunrise, reflects their enduring love story. Despite humble beginnings, Ruffalo’s rise to Hollywood stardom was accompanied by Sunrise’s unwavering support and companionship. She played a significant role in his life journey, standing by him through thick and thin, showcasing the strength of their bond and partnership.
