Celine Dion gives birth to her twin boys

Celine Dion gave birth to her twin boys yesterday, Saturday October 23. Celine had been admitted to a Florida hospital early last week to undergo monitoring, with fears that the twins would be born premature. Although Celine claimed she hadn’t planned on getting a C-section (the date for the reported C-section would have been Friday), Celine did end up delivering her babies via C-section a day after the tabloids claimed she would. The babies were born premature, and will have to spend several days (at least) in an incubator. But everyone sounds healthy:

Céline Dion is a mom again – times two! The singer, 42, 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 tells PEOPLE exclusively.

“Celine, René and their son René-Charles are thrilled,” says her rep.

One of the babies weighed in at 5 lbs., 4 oz., with the other at 5 lbs., 10 oz.

Dion’s doctor, Ronald Ackerman, said at a press conference outside the hospital Friday evening that the delivery, done via C-section, went as expected. He also revealed that the twins were both born with a good amount of hair.

The twins are healthy, says Dion’s rep, but 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.”

No names yet! Oh well. We know Celine is going to name them something fancy, like Francois Rene Hubert Vivian Charles SparkleFranco or something like that. And we know the babies will be loved! Congratulations to Celine and Rene, and to big brother Rene-Charles!
