Jennifer Lopez and husband Marc Anthony welcomed twins early Friday morning, a son and a daughter.
After multiple false alarms over the past few weeks, set off by extra security, over-eager tipsters, etc., the babies were born at 12:45 a.m. ET at a Long Island hospital, J.Lo’s manager, Simon Fields, told People.
“Jennifer and Marc are delighted, thrilled and over the moon,” Lopez’s manager Simon Fields tells PEOPLE exclusively.
They’re the first children for Lopez, 38, and the fourth and fifth for Anthony, 39. The couple celebrated the impending births with a baby shower in New York on Jan. 19. “They were just beaming the entire time,” said one partygoer.
Longtime friend Leah Remini calls Lopez, 38, “a born mom” and very nurturing. “With our daughter, she’s so great. I mean, lets her go in her closet and play with her coats or her jewelry. She’s just so giving and loving,” Remini said.
Congrats J.Lo and Marc on your new boy and girl!
