Now, that they’ve mastered walking, they truly walk to the beat of their own drums. Actually, each twin does have her own walking style. If you watch a video of them walking very closely you can see this. Abby prefers to walk flat footed, while it’s more comfortable for Brittany to walk on the tips of her toes. Since they use these different styles of walking, it appears that the twins have a limp. Take note, this isn’t a real limp, but simply their walking pattern.
