February 23, 08 by Ballz!
Jennifer Lopez and husband Marc Anthony are now the proud new parents of twins, a boy and a girl.
The babies were born early Friday in Long Island, New York. The girl was born at 12:12 a.m. and weighed 5 lbs. 7 oz.; the boy followed at 12:23 a.m., weighing 6 lbs.
“Jennifer and Marc are delighted, thrilled and over the moon,” said her manager.
When Marc Anthony’s sister found out about the double blessing, she was overjoyed.
“I learned this morning. I’m ecstatic, I really am. I’m happy for her,” Yolanda Santa Maria, Anthony’s older sister, said after hearing the birth news on Good Morning America. “She’s a mom for the first time. I can just imagine the euphoria she’s going through.”
And as for her brother? “It’s another two blessings for him. He beat me – I have four [kids] and now he has five. I’m so happy for him. I don’t even know what to say. It’s like if I had the babies.”
Santa Maria, who expects to meet her new niece and nephew soon, added, “I can’t wait to see them, I can’t wait to meet them. Words don’t even begin to express how happy I am for them.”
