It’s the photo that broke the internet faster than Kylie Jenner and a new pair of lips!

Kaylan Mahomes posted a sweet snap that looks like three (almost) identical sisters, smiling for a selfie in the car. However, it was the 16-year-old’s caption that left her followers stumped where she revealed that one of the youthful look ladies in the twitter photo was actually her mum.

“Mom, twin & me,” Kaylan penned alongside the photo of herself and her twin sister Kyla with their mother.

Commenter were quick to quip, “Who’s the mum?”

Setting the record straight, after over 33,000 retweets (and counting), the high schooler revealed that her mother is on the far left of the photo, wearing the black jacket.

Despite the cat being out of the bag, the photo has gone viral and people are gobsmacked by the trios likeness – and mum, Tina, is equally shocked.

Speaking to ABC news, Tina said, “I didn’t realize how much we looked alike or how big of a deal it was for people to think that we look more like sisters, versus mom and daughters although we do get that a lot.”

For the stunning mum, who Kaylan says often gets mistaken as her sister, she has no real secrets to looking so good.

“I do try to drink water although I don’t drink as much as I should,” she said.

“While looking nice on the outside is great…I do teach the girls to focus more on education and inner beauty.”
