I was a foster mom to over 30 children. Sibling separation in foster is a huge ordeal. We need to start demanding laws and policies that can do a better job at keeping siblings in the same homes. When all options fail, we need to make ongoing contact mandatory :-( I'm speaking from both sides of foster care.
Growing up in the system and being separated for 12 years, I 100% agree there needs to be a law, especially because us as kids in the system really just wonder sometime to know what it feels like to share blood with that truly cares and stuff
@@JuliaHap I want to find my son I'm finding it hard I'm broken every day Im running out of options Ive been thinking and never stopped thinking about him since the day he was taken 😪
They are both beautiful, those eyes just take you right in. So glad they found one another, you know they'd had to have thought of each other everyday.
Awww I applaud the real for making people's lives change especially after moments like these... Glad to see them back together and get ready to spend more time together !
I know Shawney and I'm so happy they were reunited!!! I know since talking to her the last week she's been nothing more than excited this was beautiful!! She's been talking about him since sophomore year or at least to me!!❤❤❤
Brandi Salazar awe how she hugged him when they met, this was so sweet and I'm pretty sure based on this video that she's a very sweet person just like he is, and you have the pleasure of knowing her, I love this video and she deserves it as well as he does.
I can relate to this because I'm still trying to find my two brother from my biological father no luck yet but I have faith one day I will just like the two brother and sister did beautiful story !!
Why would you adopt one kid and not the other? I get not having enough money etc but in my opinion, better to not adopt either one. I couldn't knowingly separate siblings like that. I'm so happy they're reunited. This was beautiful 😭😭😭
LadyChaos101 oh ok. Yeah...I'd still have to drop it then. Or at least keep in touch and live near the sibling's family so they could grow up together. If social services would allow it.
It’s been 10 years since I was separated from my brothers and I look forward to the day I can see them again 😔❤️ UPDATE: I actually got to meet them Nov.24 & just seems them again for the second time yesterday Dec. 15 , soon we will have all day visits and sleepover days ...GOD IS GOOD
They're bio momma and daddy made beautiful children! Definitely those eyes Shawnie is pretty but Lord have mercy Luke is just unrealistically fine! This story made me cry because I'm a younger sister too and being ripped away from my brother like that is something I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. I've been separated from by my brother but because he went to college then joined the military and almost immediately sent to enemy lines. The feeling of just knowing he was there and rarely knowing how he was or where he was for periods at a time or not knowing if he was coming home on his own two feet is the worse feeling in the world. He's my only sibling and thinking he could be taken away from me is something I never want to feel again and thank God he came home honorably discharged from the Air Force and now he's a chef in Hawaii.
While they're chatting and asking him questions, through the nerves, he must've been thinking, "hurry up, I want my sister!" 😂 😂 I hope they're never separated again
I know this feeling oh so well. I went 25yrs without seeing or talking to my sister before we were reunited...and we picked up like we never lost touch. I'm so happy for them.
I don't think it's fair to compare a talk show that has been airing for over 14 years and another one that has been airing less than 4. You can tell they're doing the best they can and this season they are giving back to the fans big time.. maybe not like Ellen does, but at least they try their best
Im just here crying this is so touching im so happy for them and like even though my sisters annoy the living hell out of me i cant imagine my life without them and im so happy for them. So congrats to them and i hope yah relationship keeps growing and growing and getting stronger
I Lowkey would have been mad to know that he is my brother. He’s fine af!!! Like damn why u gotta be my brother tho???!!!! Lol This is a beautiful story tho!!! Glad they found each other.
Love this! I have never seen a picture of my Dad who passed from a heart attack when I was a few months old. After years of on and off again searching I found some of his family on FB. The feeling these 2 individuals must of had in meeting must have been incredible!! 💖🌸🌞
My little sister and I reunited in 2013 after being separated in 1983. 30 years. She was one I was seven when we were separated. She didn't remember me, but found out that she was illegally adopted by her sperm donor's family, and found out about me. I have been looking for her all this time. And she finally found me and that was the best Thing I could've ever asked for
Started Balling instantly. me and my older brother were both inseparable and i got adopted by one family and he stayed in foster care. we were separated when i was 3 and i am 20 and he is 21 now and we both reunited this past summer...
In 1981, my mom put me on a bus. She was sending me to Michigan from Washington State. She didn't tell me where I was going, only that the driver knew where to let me off. 6 weeks later after her husband beat the crap out of my baby brother, she dumped him (literally) at a police station in Nevada. She got her knees and told him to his face that she did not love him and never had. Then she drove away. Last year in 2021, my brother found me. We went 40 years without speaking to each other. It was a wonderful 8 months. He won't talk to me now. I am glad these siblings found each other. They are very lucky. It sucks when you are not wanted by your family.
I know the feeling of living life not complete. I'm 47 years old. I have a baby sitter that was adopted in 1980. Its been 40 years. I feel alone because I do remember my sister even though she was just a baby. I only have a first name that she was born with. I try to find her but it seems almost impossible with just a first name. This was a very beautiful reunion on that video.
I'll be the one to say it, even though I loved the show, I never bought "Sister, Sister." That premise was so unreal! I think "Half n Half" did a better job of creating the premise. However, "SS" had writing that was better than "HH"
i wish i could see my brother i have not see him since i was 3 i miss him so much i feel into depression and i still am i miss you big brothers dont forget me
So happy they found each other, they are so much alike, I found a lost brother after 35 years I can understand how they feel after 18 years, just curious did they ever wonder about their biological parents?
I don't understand how somebody can adopt just 1 brother and leave the other behind. How the hell can you separate 2 brothers? That doesn't breaks your heart???????? I can't even imagine my life without my brother. That is insane

i agree

That’s cool! I hope to be a foster mom some day too!
And even if you HAVE to separate the siblings it shouldn’t be so hard for them to find each other. More information should be given to both families.

gigglyfitzgirl social services didn't allow

gigglyfitzgirl I don't agree with you, it's better to save one life than none☺
Annelyce Yawingu But look at the pain it caused both of them.
ive tough the same thing, its the adoption systems faults,that's inhuman
Way to go to the Real for making this happen. It's so sad when siblings get separated. So happy for them to get to meet again.

Wil Marie shut up
Wave Ology What’s wrong with you?
They're bio momma and daddy made beautiful children! Definitely those eyes Shawnie is pretty but Lord have mercy Luke is just unrealistically fine!

He is!
I found another brother when he was in his 40s. He knew about us but we had no idea about him. He's now in his 70s and it's been awesome.
I wish you all the best.
While they're chatting and asking him questions, through the nerves, he must've been thinking, "hurry up, I want my sister!" 😂 😂
I hope they're never separated again
I’m in tears😞ugh this is so beautiful🥀
Luke is 22, I'm 22, let's get out of here and do what it do!!!!! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Aww. I loved this❤😢
ellen would have given them roundtrip tickets for a year plus 10,000 cash

Kevin Zamora thanks
I swear! That's why I love her.
Maxim cruz Right! The Real need to step up their budget. Quit buying wigs.
Yeah BUT there's NOTHING like a priceless REEEEAL T-SHIRT(in my Jeannie Mai voice) :-)
That was so special! I loved this segment !! =)
I see 7 people needs Iyanla to fix their life, because to dislike this, beloved, somebody hurt you.

OH MY GOODNESS I have tears 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

This was a very beautiful reunion on that video.
Have you tried contacting the show " Long Lost Family". They help reunite families.
Kind of similar to the "Sister, Sister" premise
I'll be the one to say it, even though I loved the show, I never bought "Sister, Sister." That premise was so unreal! I think "Half n Half" did a better job of creating the premise. However, "SS" had writing that was better than "HH"
Want like to get Along with your Sister was Brother and Sister keep Rick and god bless make me smile 😊
Thank God they have gotten back together.
True
Awesome God bless 🙏
i wish i could see my brother i have not see him since i was 3 i miss him so much i feel into depression and i still am i miss you big brothers dont forget me
What a beautiful brother and sister
I love Facebook for that same reason finding my sister after 23 years
So happy they found each other, they are so much alike, I found a lost brother after 35 years I can understand how they feel after 18 years, just curious did they ever wonder about their biological parents?
adrienne always creates an awkward silence hahaha.
😢😢😢onions everywhere *fans eyes*
Yeh He really cuute👅😍😍.....but aww I was in tears😭❤️
I love watching The Real without Tamar on it. You beautiful ladies are full of so much positivity. I love you all
Aweeee my heart melts 💝
I have 3 brothers and when I was a baby I had to leave them so now I’m 14 and I’m loooking for them but I can’t wait to meet them
The part when she said I'm taller than you was like really bitch you just meet and that's the thing you wanna say
Jad Hegazin Doubt she was trying to be bitchy. More like she was trying to crack a joke. Don't read into it too much
Jad Hegazin he said "you're taller than me" and she responded
actually he said "you're taller" and she said "I'm not taller I'm wearing heels".
StealthAether best response ever 😭💖
Jad Hegazin 😂😂😂 he said it first. She repeated it to explain that it was only bcz she was wearing heels. But your comment is the best.
Am I the only one who thinks the sister looks like Kelly Osbourne?
Maybe you are the only one.
Yeah just a little
I think 90% of her beuty can be removed by a tissue paper.
I pray one day I get the same opportunity as these two siblings
Now that’s a real hug...
I don't understand how somebody can adopt just 1 brother and leave the other behind. How the hell can you separate 2 brothers? That doesn't breaks your heart???????? I can't even imagine my life without my brother. That is insane
They do that all the time in the adoption process, it's sad.
if anyone could have adopted my big bro who is 22 now my life would have been better...
does anybody know what time the real come out in Dallas and what Chanel
Lawd Luke is gorgeous!!!
3:59 she really didnt even bother to hug the girl whos in her feelings? Jessuss!!!
What's up with this girl her personality does not fit this group
This is wonderful
4:48 Not sure if that was a rhetorical question, but if it wasn't, glad Jeannie quickly asked something else cause that was a dumb question...
Danny Zuko LMFAO😂😂
he's so cute! 😍
He's super pretty!
They look alike too so cute 😍😭😭
man I wish I could meet my brother and sister one day
I was separated from my big sister for 18 years ... when I finally met her, everything made sense.
DADDDDDDDDDDDDY 😍😍😍😍😍
