Angelina Jolie Gives Birth to Twins

Angelina JolieAngelina Jolie has given birth to a girl and a boy Saturday at the Fondation Lenval hospital in Nice, France.

"are doing marvelously well." Dr. Michel Sussmann, told The Associated Press about the actress, the babies and Brad Pitt. Sussmann told PEOPLE magazine "The babies are doing well. The operation went just perfectly," Sussmann also added "Angelina is in very good spirits. Brad Pitt was at her side. He was there and all was well."

The doctor said Jolie gave birth to a boy, Knox Leon, and a girl, Vivienne Marcheline, by Caesarean section at around 8 p.m. on Saturday night. the boy weighed just over 5 pounds and the girl 5 pounds.

He said the Caesarean was moved forward from its originally planned date "for medical reasons" so that the babies could be born "in the best conditions." Sussman also said Jolie is expected to stay in the hospital for a few more days.

The first photos of the new twins are expected to fetch millions of dollars, so the hospital said it had coated the windows of Jolie's room with a special material to prevent paparazzi from taking unauthorized pictures of the star couple.

The new twins make the number of children in the Jolie-Pitt clan half a dozen. Jolie, 33, and partner Brad Pitt, 44, are already parents to Maddox, 6; Pax, 4; Zahara, 3; and Shiloh, 2. Jolie recently told Entertainment Weekly that she was surprised when she knew she was having twins. "It did shock us, and we jumped to six children quickly,".
