Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are in the southern French town of Nice for the delivery of their twins.

The mayor of Nice has said that the Jolie-Pitt twins will be made honourary citizens of the town and he can’t wait to sign the birth certificate of the twins.

Jolie, 33, arrived at the hospital on Sunday by helicopter and has a suite of rooms reserved for her and her partner Brad Pitt, which have been sealed off by bodyguards.

Doctor Michael Sussmann said, “She will give birth in the next two weeks. I can’t really say more than that. It really isn’t an emergency. She was booked in well in advance. We are not talking about premature birth.”

“We have reserved four rooms for her and her partner and also for her protection teams. We believe the security concerns they have raised are legitimate. She is a pregnant woman. She is perfectly entitled to protect her privacy. We should let her breathe,” he added.

Jolie and Pitt, 44, already have four children, three of them adopted and the fourth, Shiloh, their biological daughter born in Namibia in 2006.
