Karine Schnapp and Mitchell Schnapp welcomed their twins Noah and Chloe Oct. 3, 2004, in New York City.
Noah having a twin sister came as a surprise to many fans. In April 2016, the actorshared this detailwith his fans on the social media site X, formerly known as Twitter. He responded to a fan who had written, “@noah_schnapp i just find out now you’re a twin and i’m……..HOW?????” In a repost, Noah replied, “Fraternal twins. Her name is Chloe.”
On their 18th birthday in October 2022, Noah shared a sweet carousel post ofphotos of the brother-sister duothroughout the years.
In the caption, he penned a sweet message to his sister, writing, “Happy birthday to my twin sister and truly bestest friend in the entire world. Couldn’t imagine this life without you. Here’s to 18.”
She was the first person Noah came out to
Noah revealed during hisVarietyinterview that his twin sister was the first person he came out to, noting, “I can’t tell anyone else before I tell my own twin sister — she’ll kill me.”
“I was driving, and I just kept putting it off,” he explained. “Our house was right down the road, and she was like, ‘Why do you keep making these wrong turns?’ I was like, ‘I can’t do it, I can’t do it.’ Then we got home, and I was like, ‘Screw it.’ ”
However, when Noah went back to college at Penn, he said he went back to “blatantly hiding” his sexuality, which he said “made everything miserable for those months.” Eventually, Noah’s mom visited him at school to check in on him.
“I couldn’t tell her how I was feeling without telling her what the problem was, so just one night at dinner, I was like, ‘This is it,’ ” he said. “She was like, ‘Finally, you told me!’ ”
She goes to college in Boston
