The Grey family was known for their wealth. Some people believed they were so rich they could buy all the houses in Beverly Hills. Their family’s wealth and status went back to the 1700s. Many family members came and went, but they kept their high position.
Richard was the only child of his parents, Franco and Leah Grey. The couple had waited many years to have him. As expected, they spent their fortune and effort raising Richard to be one of the finest gentlemen.
He made people happy, and his parents were proud of their perfect son. They were excited that one day he would manage their family estate. But they were also worried about his future.
Franco and Leah wanted grandchildren. Leah especially wanted Richard to find a wife and have kids. She would call future grandchildren her “tiny soldiers” and couldn’t wait to see them.
Leah once challenged Franco, who asked her to stop pressuring their son. “You might die before me, Franco, and you don’t care that you might never see his baby?” she asked.
Franco calmly replied, “I want grandkids too, but he needs time. Finding love isn’t easy these days.”
Leah was not convinced. “People get married every day, Franco! He hasn’t even started thinking about it,” she said.
Franco’s words didn’t stop Leah from bringing up the subject with Richie every time she saw him. He would say, “Mom, I’m trying to find the right girl. It’s hard to know who loves you for real.”
Richard was right. His wealth made it difficult to find a genuine woman. He wanted someone committed, compassionate, and not interested in his money. He didn’t want a one-sided relationship.
While Richard had high standards for a partner, he was also willing to improve himself for the right woman. He dreamed of finding his Cinderella, the one who would make his heart race.
No one knew when it would happen, not even Richard. But soon enough, he met Marlene, a beautiful woman with a model-like figure. Richard was captivated by her looks and intelligence.
Richard worked hard to win Marlene’s heart. She wasn’t easily impressed, but eventually, he swept her off her feet. At least, that’s how she described falling in love with him.
After dating for a few months, Richard proposed with a grand gesture, and Marlene said yes. She proudly wore a large engagement ring, and they moved in together.
Richard supported Marlene, who claimed to raise money for orphanages. This warmed his heart, and he believed she was perfect for him.
He even sponsored her fundraising efforts and introduced her to his wealthy friends. But their love story took a turn when Richard decided to test Marlene.
One day, while organizing his garage, Richard saw Marlene rudely turn away an old homeless man who knocked on their door. She treated him harshly, which shocked Richard.
Later, Richard called the orphanage Marlene said she helped. To his surprise, they had never heard of her.
Richard hired a private investigator named Sarah. He wanted to know more about Marlene before marrying her. What he found out was disappointing, but he wasn’t ready to give up.
Sarah discovered that Marlene was a scam artist. She raised money under false pretenses and never helped any charity. She was only interested in herself.
Still, Richard decided to test her again. He disguised himself as a beggar, wearing heavy makeup to hide his identity.
When Marlene saw the disguised Richard at the door, she angrily yelled at him to leave, calling him disgusting and refusing to give him food or water.

A few days later, Richard returned in his disguise. But this time, he wiped off the makeup and confronted Marlene, revealing his true identity.
“I know all about you, Marlene. I’m guessing that’s not even your real name,” Richard said angrily.
Marlene was shocked and tried to explain. “I’m so sorry, Richard. It’s not what you think!” she stammered.
But Richard had heard enough. He grabbed her arm and told her to leave his house and his life.
Soon after, Marlene was arrested. A few months later, Richard started dating Sarah, the investigator. This time, he took things slowly and enjoyed the dating phase.
Leah, though a bit reluctant, finally stopped pressuring her son about marriage. But now, she would occasionally ask Sarah when she would propose to Richard.
Mom of rare twins with Down syndrome shuts down critics with photo showing how beautiful they are
While the chances of giving birth to twins increased 72 percent between 1980 and 2018, it’s still pretty rare. About 33 out of every 1,000 births are twins.
And what are the chances of identical twins? Approximately every three or four births out of every 1,000 are identical twins. So again, relatively rare.
When 23-year-old Savannah Combs found out she was pregnant with twins, she was thrilled. And then she learned another rarity, they both had Down syndrome.
Of course, it was emotional news. Savannah and her husband, Justin Ackerman, knew that some people would judge her and her babies because of their condition.
But to Savannah, that’s what makes them incredibly precious.
“It’s very rare what they have, but they’ve been my little gems,” she told News4JAX.
Savannah, who is from Middleburg, Florida, shared her post-pregnancy journey with her daughters Kennadi Rue and Mckenli Ackerman, on TikTok where they quickly gained a following.
In one of her videos, Savannah said she was told to abort her babies because they would not make it.
She decided to keep them and give them a fighting chance.
”Every [prenatal] appointment they were alive was a blessing to me,” Savannah explained.
When she learned they both had Down syndrome, her husband was away at boot camp.
Savannah was 29 weeks pregnant when she was admitted to the hospital, and delivered her daughters. The identical twin girls, Kennadi Rue and Mckenli Ackerman, were born on May 12, 2021.
The twins arrived two months before their due date, so they had to spend several weeks in the NICU before they came home.
They’re called mono di twins, meaning that they had their own sacs, but they shared the same placenta, meaning that they were going to be identical,” she said.
“Mo di twins as it is, it’s like very rare. And then you throw Down syndrome on top of it, it’s like one in 2 million.”
Despite their rare condition, Savannah said they are just like any other child.
“They have feelings. They have a beating heart. They know how to talk. They know how to do things you do. They will get there,” she said.
“Like I said, it may be a step behind but they’re going to do it. I’ve learned these kids are feisty little things and happy little things.”
