The twins were born via surrogate when Mac agreed to carry a child for her friend, Lily, who was suffering from ovarian cancer and had to have a hysterectomy. However, Mac only gave birth in 2010 so the kids should only be in kindergarten. But now it looks like Lily and Cane are going to have to deal with teenager problems on Y&R!

Gerry has appeared in an episode of the Disney Channel series A.N.T. FARM, and Stevenson has no credits at all on her IMDb page. But she posted a video on Instagram to share her excitement at her big break. “I know it’s crazy and unbelievable, and I’m still trying to process it in my mind,” she confessed. “I was very fortunate to be able to come home this week before I really got into filming so I could share this very special time in my life with my family.
