Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are now again a new Mom and Dad to their twins! Yes they are!
The world’s most famous celebrity couple were joined in emotion during the birth of their twins — a boy and a girl — and all “are doing marvelously well,” the doctor who delivered the babies in a seaside hospital on the French Riviera said Sunday.
The newborn twins are Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline, born one minute apart on July 12, 2008- Saturday evening. They are the ultimate million-dollar babies, with experts estimating their first photos will fetch a fortune (once again).
Angelina Jolie’s obstetrician, Dr. Michel Sussmann, said the 44-year-old Pitt was at Jolie’s side during the delivery, looking on as the doctor performed a Caesarean section to deliver Knox, weighing in at slightly over 5 pounds, and Vivienne, who weighed 5 pounds.
The doctor said he believed the baby girl’s middle name was chosen in honor of Jolie’s mother, actress Marcheline Bertrand, who died in January 2007 after a 7 1/2-year battle with cancer.
News of the births attracted a small crowd of fans hoping to snap a photo of Pitt — or any of their celebrity friends stopping by to pay a visit. None appeared, but the mayor of Nice delivered the twin’s birth certificates, which he later displayed to reporters, with the family’s approval, showing Pitt’s scrawling WBP, for his full name William Brad Pitt.
Congrats to Brangelina! ^_^

Congrats to Angelina and Brad! It’ll be interesting to see what the babies look like. I have a theory that two good looking people would yield ugly looking babies (two positives make a negative). Of course, I would never say that anyone’s baby looks ugly. That’s just rude. The polite thing to do is just smile and say, “Oh my!”
