"We're really close," she said. "It's a funny relationship because it feels more like I'm their aunt or something because I'm so much older. They feel like my sisters, of course, but I have a brother who's closer to my age and we grew up together, so that's kind of what I associate as a sibling: someone you grow up with. But they're like my little babies."

I was a grownup for their whole lives, so it's more of, like, a caretaker relationship as opposed to an equals kind of thing being a similar age," Riley further disclosed that she enjoys spending time with the twins. "I love watching movies with them. Actually, that's one of my favorite things to do. They love movies. I love watching movies with them and playing with them. I just like talking to them. I like hanging out with kids. I prefer hanging out with kids to adults."
