usmagazine.com:

A total twist! Bachelorette alum Ali Fedotowsky “didn’t even know” she had a sister until recently — and she shared the “crazy” story of how they met with her followers after a family reunion.“The story of my sister ❤️,” the former reality star, 37, captioned an Instagram slideshow on Tuesday, June 21, alongside several photos of herself and her sister Tonya in Nashville. “We had the absolute best few days with my sister @tgloria0612 , her husband Sonny, and my two nephews.

All people that I didn’t even know existed just one year ago. So many of you asked me how we found each other so I wanted to give you the story.”The Massachusetts native explained that she was curious about her family tree, especially when it came to her grandmother Molly. “My [daughter] Molly is named after her and she meant so much to me so I decided to do a DNA test to learn more about her,” Fedotowsky wrote. “I was not looking for a family member because I assumed I knew all my immediate family members.

In fact, I was so focused on learning about my grandma that I didn’t even notice that in my results a person popped up under ‘Close relative.’ … I told myself I’d come back to it and just forgot.”However, the former E!

correspondent wasn’t the one family member who was digging into their history. “Well it turns out that Tonya had also taken a DNA test and she got alerted to the fact that she matched with me,” she continued. “She opened it up and read that a close relative meant that I was her grandma, aunt, or half sibling.
