Dominique Moceanu Has a Secret Sister? (Really?)

So Dominique Moceanu claimed revealed on 20/20 last night that she has a  younger sister who was given up for adoption after parents Dmitru and Camilla discovered that she had no legs. No disrespect but this story is simply too difficult for me to believe. The reporter says this mystery sister was born the day after Dominique's sixth birthday, and yet Dominique never knew that her mother was expecting a baby, or noticed her enormous pregnant belly maybe? And that the fact that it is coming out perfectly timed for the release of Dominique's new book Off Balance makes it even shadier. Here's a picture of Dominique Moceanu, her sister Christina, and hired lookalike their long lost sister Jennifer.
I'll admit this story isn't totally impossible but it's quite a longshot. And with Dominique's history of making false claims (such as the Amy Chow lesbian seduction allegations) I just can't quite believe this is true. This long-lost sister thing is turning into a trend! Remember this?  http://www.tmz.com/2011/01/24/oprah-winfrey-show-secret-sister-adoption-foster-home-mother/ And for the record, I never believed Oprah either.

    1. Ha yes just making a joke, but I still think Dominique is a huge publicity whore. If the sister thing is real, I think there's no way it was a secret. She is just choosing to reveal it in time for her new book. But I mean seriously don't ya'll just find this too hard to believe? Olympic gymnast has long lost sister with no legs also a gymnast?
