Same birthday, same hospital, same school: after 30 years they meet again and get married

They were born on the same day in the same hospital, they went to the same school, but it wasn't until 30 years later that they fell in love.

Minnesota natives Elizabeth Christensen and Joshua Colbert met on the dating app Hinge in April 2023. What they didn't know at the time was that they were in the same class as children.

“She asked me where I grew up and I said I grew up in Andover and went to Northside Christian School. And she said, “No kidding, I went to kindergarten there too.” And then we found out we had graduated [1995]so we thought, 'Maybe we were in the same kindergarten class,'” the 35-year-old told CBS News.

When they looked at their class photo, they actually saw that they were both there, but the similarities didn't stop there. In fact, both were born at Mercy Hospital in Coon Rapids and share the same birth date: September 13, 1988.

After getting to know each other in person, they also discovered that their personalities also shared similarities.

“Despite the fact that we could have had all these similarities, we were complete opposites. And that is not the case at all. So I feel like it was just the perfect match. And yeah, I think it was divine, that’s for sure,” Joshua Colbert said.

To crown all these happy coincidences, the couple decided to get married… on September 13, 2023, on the occasion of Elizabeth Christensen and Joshua Colbert's 35th anniversary.

“Our kindergarten teacher, we were able to track her down, sent her an invite and she showed up. And not only did she introduce herself, but she also found a photo of us together at an athletics day,” the woman told American media.
