Molly Ringwald Has Twins

As she was expecting, but maybe a bit earlier than planned, Molly Ringwald, 41, gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, on Friday.

The actress, who stars as the anxious mother of a pregnant teen on The Secret Life of the American Teenager, and her husband Panio Gianopoulos, a book editor and writer, named the twins, Roman Stylianos and Adele Georgianaon. The couple also have a five-year-old daughter, Matilda.

The red-haired actress said last month: "It's exciting, especially since it's a boy and girl. It's the best of both worlds."

She shot scenes for The Secret Life in the later stage of her pregnancy, which was written into the show’s storyline, where Ringwald already deals with her husband’s affair and her mother’s Alzheimer’s along with her 15-year-old daughter’s pregnancy.

We love when life imitates art. Congratulations to the couple and their newly tripled brood!
