Jennifer Lopez gave birth to twins — a boy and a girl — early on Friday in a New York hospital, her manager said.

The 38-year-old, who is married to singer Marc Anthony, delivered her first children just after midnight in a Long Island hospital, manager Simon Fields told Reuters.

“They are healthy, happy and thrilled,” Fields said of the new family.

The couple’s 5.7 pound daughter was born first, followed by a 6.0 pound son. Both have yet to be named.

Lopez’s efforts to have a child have filled tabloid pages in the past few years. Anthony, a 39-year-old salsa singer, has a daughter and two sons from two previous relationships. - source
