‘Do All Y’all Look Alike?’: Marlo Hampton’s Pic with Younger Sister Leaves Fans Fascinated

Marlo Hampton has proved time and time again that her family always comes first. On top of being a superstar “mumty” (a mom plus an auntie), to her two nephews Michael and William, she also seems to be an amazing big sister. Hampton, a cast member of “The Real Housewives of Atlanta,” showed off her relationship with her younger sister in an Instagram post from Thursday, May 14.

Wearing what appeared to be a longline denim jacket, the 43-year-old Hampton stood behind her baby sister, Crystal. The ultimate fashionista accessorized her outfit with patterned bangles, while her sister opted for simple jewelry. Both of the women rocked box braids, but Crystal pinned her hair into a top bun. Hampton, who seemed to be in big sister mode, looked as if she was fixing Crystal’s hair.

The reality star expressed her love for her sibling in her caption. She wrote: “Thereโ€™s nothing in the world like the bond between sisters ๐Ÿ’—๐Ÿ’ฏ#loveyoulilsis #familyiseverything.”

It’s very rare when Hampton posts images of her siblings, so fans were fascinated to see how much Crystal favored Hampton and their nephews.

“The family resemblance ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฟ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฟ๐Ÿ˜.”

“Do all y’all look alike lol๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜.”

“The genes are strong !!! โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ”

“Sibling goalsโค๏ธ.”

“The kids looks just like her ๐Ÿ˜ป.”

“๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ Y’all look good!”

“Ya’ll nephews look just like her…smile and all โค๏ธ.”

A few fans mistakenly thought that 12-year-old Michael and 11-year-old William were Crystal’s children. However, the young boys belong to their oldest sister. Hampton gained full custody of her nephews after her sister was admitted to a mental hospital for bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.

Hampton, who has 16 nieces and nephews, implied during season 12 of “RHOA” that her boys have made her more compassionate. “All the years, I’ve been around the girls, I’ve always been so tough. But you know what, since my nephews have been around, you can hurt me and I’m OK with showing that,” she said.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual โ€” and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
