BREAKING NEWS: THE TWINS ARE HERE!


The much anticipated day has arrived! The wait is over! The Jolie-Pitt's welcomed two new members to their already pretty big family! The supercouple welcomed a son and a daughter Saturday evening at her seaside hospital in Nice. Dr. Michel Sussmann told the Associated Press the babies, mother and father "are doing marvelously well."

Twins Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline (phew, at least their names are semi-normal) were delivered via Cesarian section sometime before 10 p.m. Knox arrived first and weighed 5.03 pounds, per Sussmann; Vivienne followed at 5 pounds. No official word or statement has been released by Brad or Angelina yet!

Rumors were swirling around that Jolie had grew increasingly uncomfortable behind windows coated with paparazzi-blocking insulation and anxious to have the babies and go home. Reports also surfaced earlier yesterday that the Jolie-Pitt's actually had two twin girls yesterday. But we've got your official news!

The couple has reportedly already sold the exclusive rights to the first baby picture for $11 million, which they will donate to a charity.

Brangelina twins named honorary citizens of Nice

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's twins have yet to be born, but already they've been named honorary citizens of Nice, France.

"All their lives they will be Niçois and all their life they will be able to come to Nice and we will receive them with great honor," Nice mayor Christian Estrosi said on Friday.

"We are very happy for this choice of Mrs. Angelina Jolie and Mr. Brad Pitt and I want to say to them that I wish a lot of joy to them and the babies, and great success for all of their lives," Estrosi added.

In France, being born in the country is generally not enough to confer citizenship. However, if France is the primary residence for the twins for at least five years after they turn 11, then they can obtain French citizenship once they reach age 18, according to the French Foreign Ministry website.

Jolie has been known for her nomadic lifestyle, but she and Pitt did purchase a $60 million French estate in May, so it is possible the couple plans to set roots there following the birth of the twins.

Jolie has been in Nice's Lenval hospital since Monday, and her doctor said in a Wednesday press conference that the babies would not be born for another two or three weeks.

Angelina Didn't Have Twins - Yet

Angelina Jolie's obstetrician, Dr. Michael Sussman, held a press conference outside of Nice's Lenval hospital at 5:30 p.m. local time to discuss the care of, and address the rumors about, his celebrity patient.

"Angelina's pregnancy has gone very well so far and she has absolutely no problems at all," he said. "But she still has at least two or three weeks to go until she gives birth and she'll most certainly be staying in the hospital until after she gives birth."

Reports announced yesterday that Jolie was in the hospital, and a French magazine even claimed she had already given birth to the twins.

"Lenval is one of the best maternity hospitals in the world so if there were any problems she'll get the best care possible," Sussman said. "But for now, both Angelina and the babies are doing extremely well. Everyone's very happy."

Brad Pitt was spotted entering the hospital's maternity ward with Angelina and his daughters, Zahara and Shiloh, although normally minors under 15 are not permitted in the hospital during visiting hours.

Jolie reportedly checked into the hospital earlier in the week so that she could rest up prior to the twins' birth. Hotel spokeswoman Nadine Bauer told E! News it was "standard procedure" and "something she had planned with her doctor...for some time."

Bauer also said that Sussman would hold a press conference following the twins' arrival.
