What does it mean to grieve deeply, love fully, and glow anyway? In this powerful homecoming episode, Shannon Allen sits down with her twin cousins Darcey and Stacey Silva, the dynamic forces behind House of Eleven and TLC’s 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days. This isn't just a reunion, it's a reckoning. Together, they reflect on their journey from small-town Connecticut to global television screens, opening up about the loss of their brother Michael, the lessons of motherhood, and the growing pains of love, business, and reality TV fame. This conversation is full of laughter, tears, and truth-telling as the sisters share the highs and heartbreaks behind their hustle. From flipping their dad’s house with no money to facing public scrutiny and personal transformation, Darcey & Stacey embody what it means to be bold, beautiful, and built for evolution.

QUOTES “Michael’s death—it was painful, but it’s never in vain. People will know his name.” “We were reenacting the scene when we found out our brother had cancer... Everybody was crying. They felt our emotion. That was our reality.” “Keep going. If he could fight, so can we. That’s where Silva Strong came from.” “We were always called ‘the twins.’ People never said ‘Stacey’ or ‘Darcey.’ We grew up thinking we were the same person until our twenties.” GUEST RESOURCES Darcey & Stacey Silva IG | @thesilvatwins House of Eleven IG | @houseofeleven RESOURCES Shannon Allen Grown Website | https://www.grown.org/ IG | @swalkerwil 🌱 Stay Connected & Explore More 🔗 Visit the Grown Website Grown.org 📲 Follow Shannon on Instagram @swalkerwil 🎧 Like, Share & Subscribe If this episode moved you, inspired you, or made you think, don’t keep it to yourself!
