Oscar-winning Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie gave birth to twin, a boy and a girl by Caesarean section at the Lenval hospital in southern France on Saturday.

The boy, named Knox Leon, weighed 2.28 kg while her sister, Vivienne Marcheline, weighed 2.27kg. Marcheline was also the first name of Jolie’s mother, an actress, who died of cancer last year.

“The parents and the babies are in excellent health. Everything is fine,” Jolie’s doctor, Michel Sussmann, told Reuters. He said the c-section had been planned for a long time but the date was brought forward “for medical reasons.”

The doctor said Jolie was under epidural and was able to speak to a “perfectly calm” Pitt, 44, during the birth.

“They were very happy,” Sussmann said Pitt “was looking at what I was doing. He was my assistant. No, that’s a joke.”
