Matt Damon and his wife, Luciana, have their hands full. The couple, already raising three children, welcomed a girl, Stella Zavala Damon, who was born on Wednesday in New York.
“Mom and baby are both healthy,” says Damon’s rep. “The whole family is thrilled.”
Damon, 40, and Luciana, 35, wed in 2005 and have two children together – Isabella, 4, and Gia, 2. Luciana also has a daughter, Alexia, from a previous marriage.
The Canadian singer gave birth to fraternal twin boys on Saturday at St. Mary’s Medical Center in West Palm Beach, Fla., at 11:11 a.m. and 11:12 a.m., her rep confirmed:
“Celine, René and their son René-Charles are thrilled.”
One of the babies weighed in at 5 lbs., 4 oz., with the other at 5 lbs., 10 oz.
Ronald Ackerman, Dion’s doctor, said (at a press conference outside the hospital Friday evening) that the delivery was done via C-section and went as expected. He also revealed that the twins were both born with a good amount of hair.
Dion’s rep also says that while the twins are healthy, they will spend the next few days in an incubator because they were born premature.
“Celine is resting now and they plan to discuss what to name the boys when she wakes up,” the rep adds. “René-Charles has been to the hospital to visit his brothers and is just so excited they are here.”
René-Charles is Celine’s first son, and the twins’ older brother. Her husband is named René Angélil. Who wants to take bets they’ll have the name “René” thrown somewhere on their birth certificates?
According to US Weekly, Beyonce has had quite a surprise: a baby! A source close to the JayZ’s wifey says:
“B was shocked. She loves kids, but she wasn’t ready to be a mother just yet, she really wanted to get her album done and tour the world again. This is a gift from God and she’s so happy.”
Friends of the couple are already expressing their well-wishes for the parents-to-be:
Says record executive Kevin Liles, who has known Jovah for years:
“Jay has been all about family since I met him, and he’s always going to be. I wish them the best.”
Bey’s younger sister, Solange, who is already a mom, agrees:
“She’s got the most beautiful heart. She’ll be a great mom.”
While the news hasn’t been publicly announced by the couple or confirmed by any reps, US has a good reputation for reporting facts. We hope she’s knocked up though, babies are always exciting!
UPDATE: While on Ellen yesterday, Beyonce’s mama, Tina Knowles, denied rumors the singer is pregnant, stating:
“I heard that but I’m here to clear the rumors up. The truth is that’s it’s not Beyoncè that’s pregnant. It’s me.
I’m kidding y’all. I’m 56. No, no it’s not true. Not right now. I’m looking forward to it. With all the rumors, by now I should have five or six grandchildren.”
Singer Celine Dion has checked into a West Palm Beach hospital, in preparation for the birth of her twins. Their due date isn’t until November, but at her age, and with twins, it’s best not to take any chances. The babies were conceived via in vitro fertilization.
A rep for the hospital said:
“Ms. Celine Dion has been admitted to St. Mary’s Medical Center in West Palm Beach, Florida for observation at the recommendation of her doctors. She has been admitted to prevent the early delivery of her babies, which is the standard of care for any patient with twin pregnancy in this clinical setting.”
Hope everything goes ok! Babies are always exciting!!
