Celine Dion Gives Birth To Twins

Celine Dion and her husband René Angelil welcomed fraternal twin boys on Saturday. The boys will join the couple's older son René-Charles, who is 9 years old.

The twins arrived at 11:11 and 11:12 a.m. at St. Mary's Medical Center in West Palm Beach, Florida, where Céline, 42, was admitted a few days earlier.

The singer's doctors advised her to go into the hospital early in order to avoid the premature birth of her babies. Evidently, that was unavoidable, as the twins came a few weeks earlier than their due date.

The new babies will stay in the hospital for a few days in an incubator, but they are healthy and doing well, said Céline's doctor, Ronald Ackerman. The delivery was done via C-section and all went as expected with one baby weighing in at 5 lbs. 4 oz. and the other at 5 lbs.

"Celine is resting now and they plan to discuss what to name the boys when she wakes up. René-Charles has been to the hospital to visit his brothers and is just so excited they are here." Celine's rep said.

Celine Dion Expecting Twin Boys

Celine Dion is expecting twin boys.

The 'Think Twice' singer - who already has a nine-year-old son Rene-Charles with husband Rene Angelil - has confirmed she will be welcoming two more sons into her family later this year.

In a statement on her website, he spokesman said: "Celine first announced the upcoming new additions to the Angelil-Dion family back in May, and now she just revealed that she is expecting twin boys! Congratulations to the happy family!"

The 42-year-old songstress has had an emotional few months as she tried to have more children with her 68-year-old spouse.

Last August the couple announced they were expecting a child following a successful round of IVF, but in November her spokesperson confirmed the pregnancy had failed.

Just weeks ago Celine hinted there was some "good news" to come about a second pregnancy.

She said: "Well we're crossing our fingers. We're waiting for good news hopefully. I don't want to talk about it so much because I'm superstitious, but I know people have been very wonderful for us and praying for us. Right now we are crossing our fingers, we hope for the best and I can't wait to give people good news."
