And with both women sporting matching fiery hair, measuring in at nearly the same height, weight, and shoe size - as well as sounding alike - it's not hard to see why.
Speaking to Daily Mail, about their resemblance, Georgie admits: 'We get told we look like sisters all the time - to the point where I get embarrassed.
'It's nice for me, but because it happens so often, it must get a bit annoying for Jazz.'

Adding to the confusion, Georgie, who is the director of beauty brand Nail Harmony HQ, even works in the same building as her daughter.
Jazz explained: 'I met my boyfriend Michael in February last year and it's quite a funny story, because it was at a work function and my mum was also there.
'He thought that I was the older one, and because of this he was worried he wouldn't have a chance with me!
'But now, he always says that he likes coming around because my mum's really cool.'
And while Georgie's youthful appearance will make her the envy of many women of her age, she insists that there is no magic formula.

'Apart from the gastric bypass, I haven't had any cosmetic work. Definitely no Botox or anything like that,' she explained.
'I don’t try too hard with my skin but I do use products from French skin care range Yon-Ka.'
