Husband and Wife, Su Jingjie and Guo Yuting had always felt a special connection since learning they shared the same birthday of June16th.

But the 27-year-olds, who are from Sichuan Province in China, now believe they’re ‘meant to be’ after learning some astonishing information. 

The pair, called the coincidence ‘destiny’ when – the day after they tied the knot in March – they found out they’d been born in the same medical facility.

They were flipping through each other’s baby photos when Guo found a snap of her husband in a hospital cot – identical to a picture she had at home.

A comparison of their pictures showed the then-baby boy lying in cot 11, while Guo was in cot 36, at the Jiangyou No 6 People’s Hospital.

"The hospital gives families of newborns the same type of photo," Guo explained, adding: "That’s when I realised we actually ‘knew’ each other 27 years ago."

Although the lovebirds only began dating in 2013, they had actually met one another back in 2004, when Su transferred to Guo’s secondary school.

They also sat behind each other in class and after realising they shared a birthday, the pair kept in touch after leaving for university in different cities.

"It feels like something that would only happen in a soap opera," an astonished Guo said.

"Actually, I always had a crush on her and never had the courage to tell her,” says Su.

"But this is how destiny works – it wouldn’t let either of us slip away."
