Penn Badgley and Domino Kirke Welcome Identical Twin Boys in Heartwarming Announcement
EXCLUSIVE SCOOP: Penn Badgley and Domino Kirke Welcome Identical Twin Boys, Adding to Their Already Large Family!
In a surprise announcement that's got everyone talking, Penn Badgley, the 38-year-old heartthrob from the hit show You, has revealed that he and his wife Domino Kirke have welcomed not one, but TWO adorable twin boys! The news was shared on Instagram in a casual video post promoting his upcoming book, Crushmore, written with his podcast co-hosts Nava Kavelin and Sophie Ansari.
As Penn recorded the video from home, he couldn't help but gush about his new additions to the family. "I'm interrupting my paternity leave, which I'm on by the way," he said in a hushed tone, as if not to wake up the tiny tots sleeping nearby. "There's tiny little baby feet right there." The actor was beaming with joy, and it's no wonder why - having twins is definitely a plot twist, even for seasoned parents like Penn and Domino!
The couple had announced their pregnancy back in February, but it wasn't until April that they revealed the exciting news of identical twin boys on the way. Now, just a few short months later, their family has grown by two more little bundles of joy. And if you thought they were done yet, think again! Penn and Domino already have five-year-old son James and Domino's 16-year-old son Cassius from her previous relationship.
In an earlier Instagram post, Domino had described the pregnancy as a "plot twist" and said that she was still in awe of the news. "Babies #3 and #4 coming this Summer! … Spontaneous twins are beyond magical," she wrote. We can only imagine how thrilled they must be to welcome these two tiny miracles into their lives!
But what's really got everyone talking is Penn's take on being a dad of four. In an interview with Access Hollywood earlier in April, he confessed that there's pressure to raise their brood of boys well - and who wouldn't agree? "The world needs more good men," he said sincerely. And as for his own parenting style? Well, let's just say Penn is a natural. "My dad superpower?" he laughed. "It's my patience until I've lost it, and then I'm just as bad as anybody else!"
The lovebirds tied the knot at a New York City courthouse in February 2017, followed by a beautiful ceremony in upstate New York that June. They've been together since 2014, and it's clear their love has only grown stronger with each passing year.
So what's next for Penn and Domino? With two new additions to the family, we can't wait to see how they navigate this exciting new chapter as parents of four! And as for Crushmore, fans will have to wait until October 14th when the book is released - but trust us, it'll be worth the wait.
