Crown Princess Mary of Denmark gave birth to a set of twins this morning at the Rigshospitalet this morning. A son was born at 10:30 a.m., and weighed 5lbs 140z. A daughter was born at 10:56 a.m., and she weighed 5lbs 10 ozs. According to the official statement, the Crown Prince was present throughout the births.
Mother and babies are doing well.
The names will not be announced until the baptism, which won't take place for several months.
Afterwards, Crown Prince Frederik spoke to the press: "It's a miracle. It's two small hearts to keep an eye on."
The new prince and princess are fourth and fifth in line to the Danish throne after their father and older brother, Christian,5, and older sister, three-year-old Isabella. The Crown Prince joked that the little prince might be called Elvis as the birth took place on Elvis Presley's birthday. He added that he and the Crown Princess, along with several close family members, knew the genders in advance.
The babies's names won't be announced until the baptism. The date for this has not been announced, and won't take place for at least three months.
How about Prince Elvis and Princess Presley. Only kidding folks.
