Katie (24 August 1988 – 4 April 1992) and Eilish Holton (born 24 August 1988) were Irish conjoined twins born to Mary and Liam Holton of Donadea, County Kildare. They were joined from the shoulders down, sharing a single pair of legs, as well as a stomach and liver. In 1992, at 3 1/2 years old, the twins were surgically separated. Katie Holton did not recover from the operation and died of heart failure four days later. The twins were the subject of several newspaper articles and later a two-part television documentary.
