It is true that a study conducted by the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology concluded that women with a BMI higher than 30 have an increased chance of conceiving fraternal twins, yes.

Women with a greater chance of conceiving fraternal twins include:

women undergoing certain fertility treatments
women with a maternal family history of fraternal twinning
women who have previously had twins/multiples
women who have had several children previously
women over the age of 35
women with a high BMI
very tall women (same study by ACOG)

In addition, certain ethnic groups have a higher incidence of fraternal twinning.

Being overweight, older, and the more children you have puts you at a higher percentage of having twins amongst other things.

actually, my ob/gyn told me that heavier women have a higher percentage of twin pregnancies. I asked her why and she said there isn't enough research for an answer yet.

no BMI has no role in twins pregnancy. this condition runs in some families or due to some hormonal treatments
