Kevin and Keith Hodge make up the social media comedy and fitness duo known as the Hodge Twins. The brothers started their comedy channel in 2008 and gradually adapted their content to include fitness videos and relationship advice.
The Hodge twins are as popular for their funny content as they are for their conservative political views. The duo’s outspoken political views have earned them a large following in the months leading up to the presidential election.
The Hodge twins grew up in a poor family that forced them to shoplift for food.
Kevin and Keith Hodge were born on September 17, 1975 in Martinsville, Virginia. They were the youngest of four children, and unfortunately their parents did not earn enough money to provide food for the entire family on a consistent basis. He forced the twins to shoplift to get enough food. “Poor, very poor,” Las Gemelas revealed in the blunt force truth podcast. “We didn’t grow up with much.”
Despite the difficulties, the children finished school and went to university to study finance. They joined the United States Marine Corps, and after they got out, they took various jobs in California. Kevin and Keith worked in insurance and as undercover security guards. However, they did not enjoy what they did and did not earn much money from it.
Keith came up with the idea to start a YouTube channel and pitched it to Kevin. The twins had a background in improv comedy and used their humor to win over fans. Their following took a hit after they went public with their political leanings, but rose again when they diversified their content to include exercise videos and relationship advice.
Keith is open to his family being on social media, but Kevin is much more secretive about his family life.
Keith and Kevin are married to women of Mexican descent. Keith’s wife is named Elizabeth and they have been married for the past two decades. Kevin is married, but keeps the details of his family life private. Despite this, the wives occasionally play a role in the twins’ comedy calling to “check on” their husbands when they are filming videos.
The twins appreciate their wives for taking care of their families when they are on comedy tours. In June 2017, Keith and Kevin posted photos of their wives on Facebook and attached the following caption:
“Happy Father’s Day to our wives for having to be the mom and dad while we’re on tour. I love you.”
Keith’s daughter, Dana, is a budding social media star. Her channel currently has 67K subscribers and 10.8K followers on Instagram. In a video posted on August 25, 2020, Dana reacted to a fan who asked her how she feels about her father’s political views. She said that she cannot stop loving her father because of her personal political views. Dana added:
“That is my father, he gave me life. He is my father at the end of the day. I have no lost love for my father. I’m not going to stop loving him because you don’t like him… I love him to death. That’s not going to change your opinion of him.”
