We are incredibly grateful that our family will be growing by two, and we thank you for your well wishes." The "Hold Up" singer documented her pregnancy on social media and made several red carpet appearances while expecting. Although she had to pull out of her headlining Coachella appearance, she attended the Grammys, the Beauty and the Beast premiere and the inaugural Wearable Art Gala at the California African American Museum. The couple's new twins join their daughter Blue Ivy, 5. "They have been trying for a long time and now to be blessed with twins they are so over the moon. It's even better than they wished for," a source exclusively told Us earlier this year. "Blue is so excited to be a big sister!" Beyoncé and Jay Z tied the knot in 2008 and recently celebrated their ninth wedding anniversary. Showbiz 411 was the first to report the twins' birth.

Beyoncé gave birth to twins, a baby boy and girl, on Monday, June 12, multiple sources confirm to Us Weekly. Queen Bey, 35, sparked speculation that she had been in labor early last week when Us reported that a significant amount of security was in and around a Los Angeles-based hospital. Beyoncé announced in February that she and husband Jay Z were expanding their family. "We would like to share our love and happiness. We have been blessed two times over. We are incredibly grateful that our family will be growing by two, and we thank you for your well wishes," she captioned a stunning photo of herself cradling her baby bump, which has since become the most-liked Instagram post of all time. The "Formation" singer documented her pregnancy on Instagram in the months following, and even made several public appearances. She performed an epic medley of songs from her visual album Lemonade at the Grammy Awards just weeks after announcing she was expecting, and later stopped by the Beauty and the Beast premiere and her mother Tina Knowles Lawson's Wearable Art Gala.
