Did Angelina Jolie have her twins over the weekend? (update)


OK! Magazine is reporting a rumor that Angelina Jolie had her twins over the weekend in the Aix-en-Provence region of France, which would be near Brad and Angelina’s newly leased $60 or $70 million estate. (Depending on which reports you believe.)

OK! says we should take this with a grain of salt, and that it’s just an unsubstantiated rumor for now. The details are pretty sketchy:

There may be nothing more than wishful thinking to reports coming out of France this morning that Angelina Jolie, who was due to give birth to twins some time in the next three to four weeks, has indeed already delivered her fifth and sixth children.

According to rumors, the Oscar-winner gave birth on Sunday in a Catholic clinic in the Aix-En-Provence region of France. No further details are forthcoming at this moment.

[From OK! Magazine]

OK! reminds us of the rumor that Brad and Angelina were married in the French Quarter of New Orleans in March. It turned out that the wedding was for a couple from New Orleans’ elite and that all it took was a few blocked roads and an expensive wedding for the story to get started. Maybe there’s a wealthy French woman or even another celebrity who arranged to have secrecy surrounding her birth and it’s not Angelina at all.

Angelina has said that she will disappear for a couple months after her twins are born. Dustin Hoffman leaked the news that she was due August 19, but that could have been a cleverly arranged setup by Brad and Angelina to ensure that they have time alone after the birth. It’s hard to tell how far along she is, especially if she’s having twins.

Update: D-Listed is reporting that Angelina named the twins Isla Marcheline Jolie-Pitt and Amelie Jane Jolie-Pitt.

Update 2: The Insider claims to have a source that confirms that Angelina had her twins and that those are indeed the names. Congratulations to the happy family if all this is true.

Update 3: People has an exclusive that Angelina didn’t have her babies, and since they’re at the top in the gossip hierarchy I think I’ll believe their version.

Angelina Jolie is shown on 5/20/08 at a photocall for The Changeling, thanks to WENN.

    Aren’t multiple births often a little early?

    Or am I just pulling things out of my ass now? I’ve never had a baby so I wouldn’t know.

  2. geronimo says:

    Well she did look pretty close to delivery time at Cannes and it would make sense for them to have deliberately thrown people off the scent regarding the real expected date in a bid for privacy.

  3. Devilgirl says:

    Can we only hope that she did have the babies so we don’t have to hear about her and Brad for a good length of time? I heard that one of the girls was named Amelie Jane Jolie Pitt and the other was Marcheline.

  4. Frenchie says:

    Elisha, you are right. Lets hope she is not going to length as long as JLo.
    Remember how she got huge, well, now Angelina looks half huge as she did… so I expect more posts of that kind !

  5. MPear says:

    She doesn’t look nearly big enough to be to term, especially with twins. I say this is bogus.

  6. Bubulle says:

    I’ve read that she had two baby girls on Monday. And that she named them Isla Marcheline and Amelie Jane. It’s probably BS but it’s weird we didn’t see picks of Angelina this days. God I don’t know why I care so much.

  7. Kolby says:

    I don’t buy it. They weren’t secretive about Shiloh’s birth and I can’t see them being that way for this one. And the names are decidedly UN-Jolie-Pitt to me. Naming the girls after their grandmothers? I don’t know, it would be a definite shift from what they’ve been doing up to this point with their kids. But who knows?

  8. dancingnancie81 says:

    She could be ready to have them – I’ve always thought she looked underweight and unhealthy, especially for being pregnant – so her size may not dictate her birth time.

  9. geronimo says:

    @cc – I love this! Even a post about completely fictional babies, dismissed on the link’s site as a untrue rumour, still gets loads and loads of comments and even corrections on how to pronounce the non-existent babies’ names! Too funny!

  10. Celebitchy says:

    the thing about the Celebrity Baby Blog story is that all they have is an e-mail from someone claiming to know the nanny, so it’s just as valid – or unsubstantiated – as this story.

  11. Bodhi says:

    Well she looked like she was about to pop right there on the red carpet at Cannes so I wouldn’t be that surprised.

    Lovely names

  12. Devilgirl says:

    Hmm, won’t all of these nay sayers be surprized when in the next few days we will be hearing that the babies were born and their names are Amelie and Isla and have the middle names of both grandmothers. Why is it so unbelievable that she has the kids anyway? Like the Hoffman “slip” wasn’t planned to throw the paps off the scent. I had read an interview Jolie gave in a magazine some months ago where she stated that if they/one was a girl that she was naming one after her deceased mother. I think it is more unrealistic to think that the babies were due in August, since rumors of a pregnancy surfaced early last winter, and frankly I don’t know why I am even worried about it one way or the other. I have acres of grass to cut! 😆

  13. CinPin says:

    If it’s true I LOVE the names!!!!!

  14. AC says:

    I remember being surprised she had all the way till MID August left to go. Twins or not she seems HUGE. I was thinking she looked like she was due in like Mid JUNE.

  15. Nova says:

    Yes…multiple births are generally early. There is so little room left in the womb once they get to be around 8 months that sometimes they will even induce labor. I myself had twin boys and they were a month early.

  16. Silly Lilly says:

    sniff sniff…sniff… ahhh fresh bs in the afternoon……first problem off the top with this story is that it was allegedly a best friend of the nanny that leaked it… NANNY would be FIRED. With the amount of paps following this story, one would immediately think that if it were credible, they would call in the story. D Listed doesnt claim to be a credible news org… he just likes to talk about whateva the gossip du jour is. he doesnt claim it to be fact or fiction just fun so he heard it he posted it. Besides they pay publicists to announce this kinda stuff don’t they?

  17. Devilgirl says:

    If it is such BS, why is Entertainment Tonight “CONFIRMING” both the births and names? To my knowledge, ET is a pretty well respected celebrity show and on their site they have confirmed the chosen ones, 2 and 3, have arrived.

  18. Kaiser says:

    Yeah, we’ll know when she actually gives birth. With Shiloh’s birth, CNN actually put it on their scroll.

    I really like the names, too. I hope that part isn’t BS.

  19. geronimo says:

    It’s true. BBC just reported it now.

  20. elisha says:

    And the Associated Press is confirming it as well. They just sent out a bulletin. But they’re using Entertainment Tonight as their source.

  21. LiLi says:

    that’s cool that the twins don’t share their birthday with shiloh
    hers is may 27
    BTW, does anyone know why angelina had a scheduled c-section when she had shiloh?

  22. Mairead says:

    I’ve not seen the report up on the BBC website as yet – I’m keeping an eye on the news though. (could be a while, petrol prices, Lisbon and the banning of cluster-bombs and the crane collapse in NY are kinda top of the agenda here 😉

    Actually AP are just reporting that ET are reporting it and taking it as fact. So at the moment it just seems that the news agencies are confirming there’s a rumour rather than the birth 😉

  23. elisha says:

    That’s basically what I said about AP. They are generally pretty reliable though, especially when it comes to a bulletin. They wouldn’t use ET unless that thought that was a reliable source as well. I’m a TV news anchor, I’m just looking at our wires, as many anchors across the country are right now. So even if it’s a rumor many people will report the story and AP will really hear if it’s not true.

  24. Bodhi says:

    Wow, its been confirmed, cool! Congrats to them. I think it was a fabulous idea to sorta have them secretly, as opposed to Shiloh’s media frenzy birth

  25. Bodhi says:

    Huh, people says its not true…

  26. Kolby says:

    Well, I guess I do buy it now, ha!

    LiLi – she had a c-section with Shiloh because the baby was in a breech position and couldn’t be turned.

  27. lola says:

    She likes attention too much. I can’t believe she has done this quietly. She did all that Cannes stuff when she was about to pop, talk about Loooving attention. Can’t wait to see how they cope with the brood! 😆

  28. Mairead says:

    I understand elisha – I didn’t mean any offence at all, I just thought that the way your comment read was that AP were also confirming the birth, rather than reporting ET’s news. Am I making myself clear?

    When I first read it, I thought, yeah sure… but the story does seem to have legs. No harm in waiting for some sort of statement from their PA (where’s Dustin when you want him?) before breaking out my celebratory G&Ts (it will revert to being my planned Bank Holiday Weekend G&T otherwise 😈 )

    As for whether it was the nanny what leaked it – I don’t see why not. Sure wouldn’t it be AFTER she blabbed that she would be fired? 😉

  29. vdantev says:

    Those names are a mouthful, but at least they didn’t name them Kal-el or Pilot Inspektor or Apple. That’s it; there needs to be a law or something on the books to prevent celebs from giving their kids excessively arty, goofy, obscure names. How about Bob? Or Eddie? Or Michelle? Or Sarah ? All respectable names that you don’t have to spend 15 minutes apiece explaining to the guests at the baby shower. 😆

  30. Hollz says:

    appartently Pits manager just issued a no comment, and Angies rep said its not true, according to FoxNews

    http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,360561,00.html

  31. Kaiser says:

    This is so friggin’ funny. All of these legit news sources falling all over themselves to confirm a rumour that turned into a tabloid story that turned into, and on and on.

    Meanwhile, I bet Angie, Brad and the kids are probably just playing in the pool.

  32. Syko says:

    Meanwhile, I bet Angie, Brad and the kids are probably just playing in the pool.

    As well as plotting, a la the Kennedys, how to take over the world. They thrive on attention, you know.

  33. lola says:

    I think her PR people are the ones passing around this rumours for publicity and to get attention so that they can sell them at an exorbitant price.

  34. Mairead says:

    😆 😆 😆

  35. Bellatrix says:

    I go on almost daily basis to Aix-en-Provence and let me tell you… No paparazzi to be seen there. No streets cut off. No special extra police cars guarding a clinic. Nope, nothing except tons of British and Japanese tourists and students studying for their finals while smoking and drinking coffee on the “terrasses” of the cafés.
    This seems to be pure rumour to me.

  36. elisha says:

    Now Yahoo says People magazine says the rumor is not true. So it’s a case of People vs ET. (HAHA, the mag, not as in a court case). I’m inclined to believe… People? I guess?

    OK, yeah, I just read People instead of the secondhand info and it seems they got ahold of Angie’s rep. People usually tries to hold themselves to a higher standard, so I’m believing them. AP hasn’t had anything new come down yet.

    ALSO…… what’s Zahara’s middle name? Just curious.

  37. lola says:

    Zahara’s middle name is Marley. May be they had the babies and there is something wrong. Wierd that Angelina’s peeps are saying one thing and Brad’s peeps are saying another. Remember after the brith the pictures are expected to come out shortly and if the babies have a problem, we cannot have people’s cover picture with incubators. But these are the Jolie Pitts, anything to get attention.

  38. Riri says:

    The same thing happened when their people “leaked” that they got married, and after they got all the press and attention, they denied it.

    I think these two are pulling too many publicity stunts.

    Its’ one thing to promote your film, and it’s another thing to do all these tricks to get attention.

  39. Kaiser says:

    Re: publicity stunts, incubators, tricks, etc. Uh, do you people get how one silly rumor in a French tabloid escalated to this point, right? It’s not the Jolie-Pitt’s doing, it’s ours, as rabid consumers of celeb-tainment.

    And I think it’s pathetic to be so hate-filled that you’re hoping these or any babies need incubators, etc.

  40. Bodhi says:

    Wow, lola knows Zee’s middle name. Interesting knowledge for someone who hate the family so much.

    And it is REALLY pathetic for an adult to talk that way about 2 little babies. Who haven’t even been born yet

  41. lola says:

    Bodhi, get over yourself. I work in showbusiness and of course I know Zahara’s middle name, and Maddox is Chivan, Pax is Thien. This family is shoved down every one’s throat all the time. They have movies coming up. Those pictures need to be sold one way or the other. Their PR machine have got to find ways of drumming up interest. It is not my fault that when it comes to this family your head is in the sand 🙄

  42. lola says:

    For the record, I also find the timing of this pregnancy suspect. More so if they used IVF. I never put anything past Angelina when it comes to seeking attention.

  43. Bodhi says:

    I’d rather have my head in the sand than it be where yours clearly is…

    Right… I forgot about CB’s no troll feeding policy. Sorry CB!

  44. Mairead says:

    Bodhi, breathe love, breathe. Your James Haven googly-eyes will flare up again. 😉 😆

    Well, at least all of their plotting, plotting, plotting provides us with hours of confusing entertainment eh?

  45. Amelie says:

    Hey vdantev, Amelie isn’t really considered an “exotic” name. It’s a pretty common name in France. It’s merely the French version of Amelia or Emily. Since Brad and Angie are in France right now, it wouldn’t be that surprising if they did give one of their kids a French name. However since it’s not sure that Angelina gave birth yet, this may not be true… but I’m hoping it is only because my name is Amelie as well. 🙂

  46. mig says:

    helt ærlig who cares om hun har fået sine unger eller ej jeg fatter simpelthen ikke folks fasination af de to hvad er der lige ved dem de lyver de er utro hun er mental syg selv hendes far mener hun har brug for hjælp hun har 6 med alt og alle hun er ekstrem manipulerende hun skifter udsagn konstant så det passer med at hun kan se ud som om hun er god hun siger selv hun har flere føelser for sine købte børn end sit bio og hun sagede også hun skal minde sig selv om at hun har behov kunne blive ved og ved at nævne ting hun gør men der er ikke plads nok han er bare en stor tøffelhelt der kun gør det hun siger han må og kun siger det hun fortæller ham han skal sige de er totalt over reklameret

  47. lola says:

    Been to the people.com site. My surprise is that after a day and a half on the site, the Brangelina bogus brith stories is still not among the most read. People magazine should reconsider the amount of money they will give her. That issue is not going to make a lot of money.

  48. Predatory Cougar says:

    Yes, Angeloonie did pop those things out, but unlike most media reports they were named after the father. The twins were named Dumb and Dumber.

  49. lola says:

    Lol predatory Cougar, that is actually funny.
