Spencer Korwin, a 38-year-old former Team USA triathlete and father of two, has died. The father of two drowned during a morning swim on vacation with his family. Spencer Korwin was staying with his wife and their two daughters at the Pridwin Hotel on Shelter Island, New York. On September 2, at around 9 am, her left the hotel and headed to the water. However, as he didn’t return, his family became increasingly worried and felt something was wrong. A major search operation was launched, involving marine and air units, to search the surrounding waters for Spencer. Hours later, rescuers made the heartbreaking discovery. Eventually, Korwin’s body was found underwater near the dock from which he had entered the water. Authorities believe the drowning was accidental, the Suffolk Times reported. Officials have previously warned that open water can be unpredictable, especially because tides and currents can pose hidden dangers even when the weather appears calm. Former Team USA triathle...
Kenny Rogers' twin sons recently marked another milestone with their mother, Wanda Miller, by their side. But when the latest family photo surfaced, birthday wishes quickly gave way to a divided debate over who the brothers look like.
Justin and Jordan Rogers have grown up largely outside the spotlight that surrounded their famous father. Now 22, their latest appearance has fans looking closely, with some convinced Kenny's features are becoming clearer as the brothers get older — and others seeing no resemblance at all.
On July 6, 2026, a post shared on Kenny's official Instagram page celebrated Justin and Jordan's birthday with a warm family photo. The image showed Wanda smiling between her sons as the twins leaned in from either side and wrapped their arms around their mother for the close family selfie.
A Birthday Photo Put the Rogers Twins Back in the Spotlight
In the caption, Wanda reflected on how proud she and Kenny were of their sons and imagined how the late singer might have celebrated their special day.
"Please join me in wishing Justin & Jordan a HAPPY BIRTHDAY today! I'm so proud of our boys and grateful they are our sons, and I know Kenny felt the same way! There is no doubt Kenny would be celebrating big if he were here…he is probably having ice cream in heaven in celebration of them today! ... Justin & Jordan: I love you and hope you have the happiest birthday yet! -Mom"
The touching message celebrated how far the brothers had come, but their appearance soon became a major talking point. Fans looking at the same family photo came away with very different opinions about whose features they could see.
Fans Saw the Family Resemblance Very Differently
Some followers immediately saw the late country singer in his sons. One Instagram fan declared, "Handsome like his dad!" Another agreed and wrote, "I definitely see Kenny. Happy Birthday, boys!" Others saw a combination of both parents. One fan remarked, "Handsome boy - like his dad, but looks like his mom!!"
The debate was just as divided on Facebook. One commenter insisted, "Facially, they resemble Kenny." Another had the opposite reaction and wrote, "I don't see any resemblance at all."
The disagreement over the twins' appearance comes years after Wanda herself explained that the ways she sees Kenny in their sons are not always about facial features.
Wanda Has Long Seen Kenny in Their Sons
In 2023, Wanda told PEOPLE that her late husband's presence remained visible in Justin and Jordan as they grew older. "I see so much of him in their mannerisms, how they stand with their hands in their pockets or behind their backs when they're listening to something," she shared.
Wanda added, "I always tell them, 'That was your dad's look.' The older they get, the more they want to know about him. I hear them tell people, 'My dad used to stand like that.' It's so sweet."
Those small similarities carry particular meaning because Kenny had once spoken openly about the fears that came with becoming the twins' father later in life.
Other Fans Think the Twins Are Looking More like Kenny with Age
As the birthday photo circulated among viewers, one fan observed, "Now that they are getting older, they are starting to look like Kenny." Another follower pointed to particular facial features and wrote, "You can see the look in their faces, other dad, they've got Kenny's eyebrows and eyes."
Still, not everyone was convinced. One person commented, "To me, they do not look nothing like Kenny at all." Another reflected, "Some say that they look like him. I don't see it. I always thought he was such a handsome man!!!! And I loved his voice. I'm sure they are very, very happy and well taken care of, as well as their mother. RIP Kenny."
One Instagram commenter also brought another family member into the discussion about the resemblance, writing, "Dang, Camille's genes are strong." Another person offered a more critical opinion and commented, "They sure don't look like Kenny, before he went to [sic] far on botox."
With fans seeing everything from Kenny's eyes and eyebrows to Wanda's features in the brothers, their photos through the years offer a chance to follow that transformation for yourself.
The 2026 birthday post recently drew a fresh wave of reactions from Kenny's fans, with even more netizens siding with those who think the twins resemble their dad.
"Wow, they look just like Dad. Loved Kenny and miss his voice. You have a beautiful family," swooned one admirer, while another chimed in with, "They are their fathers [sic] sons 💙💙." "Strong genes, [sic] they look like their Dad so much ❤️🎈🎂," expressed someone else.
Kenny Had Mixed Emotions about Becoming a Father Again at 65
According to TODAY, Kenny was 65 when he and Wanda welcomed Justin and Jordan in 2004. The country legend was also the father of Carole, Kenny Jr., and Christopher from previous marriages.
During a 2006 interview, Kenny reflected on becoming a father again later in life. When the possibility was raised that he might not live to see the twins turn 21, he admitted the thought was never far from his mind. "That bothers me on a daily basis," Kenny said.
He explained that hearing other parents talk about milestones such as their children going to college could break his heart. The concern had initially made him reluctant to have more children, but the happiness Justin and Jordan brought into his life ultimately outweighed that fear.
"But it's that half-full/half-empty thing, because I get so much joy out of my children now, and they are such a blessing to Wanda and me. They have drawn us together in a way that even sex can't," he shared.
Kenny died in March 2020 at age 81, when Justin and Jordan were 15. In the years that followed, the brothers found their own ways of holding on to the memories and lessons their father had left behind.
