Who Is Mekhi Phifer Brother Fernando Cameron? Family Background, Ethnicity, Religion, And Nationality

Mekhi Phifer’s twin brother is Fernando Phifer, Cameroon. The twins, born on December 29, 1974, grew up together in New York City. Both Phifers appreciated their mother for being a no-nonsense parent despite being a single mother.
