I do also theorize about Courtney being a clone of Ali. Twins are nothing but clones, sharing the same genetical copy of one egg, but made in a natural way. So an "artifical" twin is a clone, made by doctors who specialize in  in-vitro fertiliaztions, which would be similiar but not the same with the book rutine.

Ali and Courtney were produced through artificial insamination so that Mrs D can have a child with her husband, saving their crumbling marriage. My theory is, that Mr D wasn't able to father a child, which created a rift in their marriage. Then Mrs D had an affair with Mr Hastings and Jason was born (maybe Beth, too). Mr D new he was never his biological son.

Then in a final desperate act Mrs D coopareted with that big pharma-firm which ones Radley and tried the artificial pregnancy. Ali was born and Mr D and Mrs D's marriage was saved. That is why he loves Ali more then Jason.

Courtney on the other hand was maybe born with some disfigurations (e.g. face-> Black Veil), which is why Mrs D gave her away for adoption and never told her husband about.

Why clones? There are a few hints throughout the series, Hannas grandma told something about why cloning should be forever illegal, then there was a newspaper article and some other tiny refrences that I could not get together at the moment. Well I admit it is a very weak theory and there are hardly any facts to prove it. So don't be to harsh on me...
