Celine Dion has named her newborn twin boys Nelson and Eddy Angelil!

She explained that "Nelson" is a tribute to Nelson Mandela, while "Eddy" is named after French songwriter Eddy Marnay, who helped launched her career at the tender age of 13.

Her hubby, Rene Angelil, said:

"When Saturday at 11:11 came, and they showed us the first baby that was crying, we were crying. It was a very emotional moment, and even though we didn't speak to each other, we were both thinking about the time it took. We are very lucky, very privileged and very fortunate to have these boys."

Very cute! We love that the names are special to them.

Rest assured, both babies and momma are doing just fine!

Celine Dion's husband Rene Angelil has taped his first interview with the press since his twin boys were born on Saturday and during that time, revealed how happy he is to be a father again!

He revealed how the "struggle" of trying to conceive was a difficult journey for both he and Celine, but when she became pregnant with the twins, they were both thrilled. He explained that the long wait to have more children only made the arrival of his new sons all the sweeter. He said:

"When Saturday at 11:11 came, and they showed us the first baby that was crying, we were crying…It was a very emotional moment and even though we didn't speak to each other, we were both thinking about the time it took. We are very lucky, very privileged and very fortunate to have these boys."

For now, Rene reveals that Celine is resting and will be doing as such for at least the next three months. After that, if she is ready for it, she'll begin rehearsals on her new Las Vegas show.

As much as we'd love to see her name in lights again on the strip, we'd much rather hear she is enjoying her time with these two little ones. She worked so hard to get them, she should enjoy them!

Céline Dion has received the greatest reward!

The singer gave birth to fraternal twin boys via C-section on Saturday morning at a Florida hospital.

One of the boys weighed in at 5 lbs., 4 oz., and the other weighed 5 lbs., 10 oz.

While the twins are healthy, Céline's rep says that they will spend the next few days in an incubator because they were born premature.

The rep released a statement:

"Céline, René and their son René-Charles are thrilled. René-Charles has been to the hospital to visit his brothers and is just so excited they are here. Céline is resting now and they plan to discuss what to name the boys when she wakes up."

So exciting! We just hope those little bbs get to their normal weight as soon as possible!

Congratulations to Céline and René!

Celine Dion was admitted to the hospital on Sunday to prevent the early delivery of her twins, which is common in mothers of multiples.

According to St. Mary’ s Medical Center in West Palm Beach:

“Ms. Celine Dion has been admitted to St. Mary’ s Medical Center in West Palm Beach, Florida for observation at the recommendation of her doctors. She has been admitted to prevent the early delivery of her babies which is a fairly common clinical practice for mothers of twins. This is done to ensure the patient can be in close contact with their doctors and clinical resources, leading up to their birth.

Celine and Rene have placed the health of their babies as their highest priority. Recently, rumors have circulated that Ms. Dion has made certain demands of St. Mary’ s Medical Center regarding the birth of her children. All of these rumors are false. At no time did Ms. Dion or her husband make any special demands or requests of the hospital. She is not scheduled at any predetermined date for her delivery. She has not requested or selected any particular staff or accommodations not available to other patients. The patient is being treated as any other OB patient who comes to St. Mary’ s Medical Center. Although the family did not ask us to do so, the hospital has chosen to enhance our security efforts during this time for the convenience and safety of all our patients and their families within this same area of our facility.

We look forward to the day of Ms. Dion’ s delivery of her twins. During this time, we ask the public and the media respect the privacy of all of our patients and their families at our hospital.”

Wowsa! Hope she's doing okay!

Despite report of a C-section on October 22nd, Celine Dion has not scheduled a date to deliver her twin boys.

"There is nothing scheduled. We do not have a date," said Dion's hubby, René Angélil.

The couple just want to the babies to be has healthy as possible!

Celine's rep said:

"They want Celine's pregnancy to go as long as possible, at least until the first week of November. She would never intentionally endanger her unborn children by scheduling a birth early like this.

It's all false. Celine and her doctors are hopeful that she can continue her pregnancy as long as possible, and hope to get her to at least 37 weeks gestation to ensure the healthiest outcome for her children."

Can't wait to see those kiddies! Rest up, Celine.

It took her a long time to get here!

The wonderful news was announced over the weekend that Celine Dion is expecting twins with her hubby Rene Angelil.

With the world rooting for her little ones, Celine is opening up about the process and how happy she is to finally be pregnant. Boasting that she can't wait to have a "beautiful family nest full of love," Celine recalls how stressful the journey was to get pregnant:

"I feel like I've been pregnant more than a year. I never gave up. But I can tell you that it was physically and emotionally exhausting…It's stressful but I'm relaxing. I look at my little belly. I do almost nothing. If you tell me I have to stay in bed, I will stay in bed until November, when the babies are born. To bring them into the world, there's nothing more important than that. It's incredible."

We bet and we couldn't be happier for you!

Commence baby bump watch!
