Celebs with twins

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt
 Brangelina were already parents to adopted children Maddox, Pax and Zahara, and biological daughter Shiloh, when they welcomed twin babies Vivienne and Knox. Speaking three weeks after the birth, Angelina said: "It is chaos but we are managing it and having a wonderful time." With six children in the house, we're not surprised it was chaos!
Celine Dion and Rene Angelil
 Celine Dion and hubby Rene already had a nine-year-old son when they decided to try for another baby. It took six IVF attempts and one miscarriage before the Canadian singer finally announced that she was expecting twins. Little Nelson and his brother Eddy were born last year and Celine described having twins as "tiring but an intense joy".
Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick
 SJP and husband Matthew were unable to conceive naturally and turned to surrogate mum Michelle Ross in order to expand their family. They welcomed twin girls Marion and Tabitha in 2009. The Sex and the City star later explained that "meeting" the babies rather than giving birth was like "suspended animation".  She added: "Time stands still. It's so difference, and equally extraordinary."
Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony
 J-Lo and Marc Anthony welcomed twins Max and Emme in 2008. Lopez denied rumours that they had turned to IVF, insisting their babies had been conceived naturally. Last year she said of motherhood: "I can't help but be a different person now that I've had kids. That really does change your whole perspective on life for the better. I definitely feel like I've grown up."
P Diddy and Kim Porter
 J-Lo's ex also went on to have twins. The rapper's identical twin girls D'Lila and Jessie James were born in 2007 and P Diddy was present at the birth, even helping to cut the umbilical cords. "To be honest I can't get over it," the big softy said of his newborns. "No matter how many times I'm here looking at them, holding them and kissing them, I just can't believe they're here."
Marcia Cross and Tom Mahoney
 Desperate Housewives actress Marcia began IVF treatment just one week after marrying Tom Mahoney. Twin girls Eden and Savannah arrived in 2007, four weeks early. Cross had been diagnosed with pre-eclampsia and gave birth via caesarean section. Having longed for children for years, Marcia said of being a mum: "It's so much better than I even imagined."
Julia Roberts and Danny Moder
 A-list lovely Julia gave birth to twins in 2004 at the age of 37. Hazel and Phinnaeus were born more than a month early but were soon home with mum and dad. Twins run in Julia's family - her great grandmother and two sets of cousins are twins. Roberts, who now has another little boy, said of her children: "They are really angelic and wondrous."
Dennis and Kimberly Quaid
 Actor Dennis Quaid and his wife Kimberly welcomed twins Boone and Zoe in 2007 but  it was a traumatic time for both parents and babies. The newborns were left fighting for their lives after being given a near-fatal dose of blood thinner Heparin. Cedars-Sinai Medical Center later agreed to pay Quaid $500,000 as compensation for the blunder and Dennis and Kimberly later launched a campaign to improve labelling on drugs bottles.
Holly Hunter and Gordon MacDonald
 Raising Arizona star Holly Hunter was 47-years-old when she gave birth to twin boys in 2006. The notoriously private actress has since stated that she will not discuss her children with the media and she wasn't joking... we can't even confirm their names.
Rebecca Romjin and Jerry O'Connell
 Ugly Betty star Rebecca Romjin and hubby Jerry O'Connell welcomed twin girls Dolly and Charlie in 2009. Rebecca insisted on taking time off after the birth as she wanted motherhood to be her job for a while. Earlier this year, she revealed that her girls were developing very different personalities and described having twins as like a "crazy social experiment".
Kate and Jon Gosselin
 In 2000, Kate Gosselin gave birth to twin girls, Cara and Madelyn, 35 weeks into her pregnancy. The couple turned to fertility treatment as Kate was unable to conceive due to polycystic ovary syndrome. However, they got more than they bargained for when they opted for further treatment as Kate went on to give birth to sextuplets. Books and reality TV followed but the pressure of having eight children clearly took its toll because Kate and Jon went through a particularly bitter divorce in 2009.
Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon
 After what seemed like the longest pregnancy in history, Mariah Carey finally gave birth to twins on April 30, which is also the couple's wedding anniversary. Little Monroe and Moroccan both weighed under 6lbs but are now at home with mum and dad. And getting them to sleep is no problem. Mariah recently tweeted: "I just finished singing 2 them (softly!) Feeling so blessed. LYM :) x0x0."
