Adopted sisters Limia Ravart, left, of Montreal and Hannah Raleigh of Chicago recently discovered after a DNA ancestry test that they are both related. The two met each other for the first time in person on ABC's Good Morning American on May 25, 2022. And deep down, Raleigh says she felt like she always had one.During an appearance onon Wednesday, Raleigh met her long-lost sister, Limia Ravart, for the first time in person, after an ancestry test confirmed the two are in fact related.
"All the thoughts are going through my head at once and I kind of panicked, but I ended up sending her a message that night, and surprisingly enough, like 20 minutes later, she responded to me," Raleigh said, recalling the moments after she got her test results back. Both from China, the two adopted sisters would find homes in different cities, Raleigh in Chicago and Ravart in Montreal.
"The first sentence was like, 'Hi, apparently we are like biological sisters,' and I was like, 'Oh, wait a minute,'" Ravart said. Ravart had even forgotten about the DNA test she took a couple of years back, which found no close matches.Since then, the two sisters have forged a friendship over video chats and discovered a number of things they have in common.
