Princess Charlene, the 36-year-old South African today gave birth to twins - a boy and a girl at the Grace Hospital through Caesarean section.
The babies are the first children of both Princess Charlene and her 56-year-old husband, Prince Albert II. Although Prince Albert have two other children out of wedlock.
Albert, the son of the late American actress Princess Grace had worried many of his subject with his long bachelorhood. But by 2011, he raised so many hopes when he got married to Princess Charlene Withstock, a Zimbabwe-born South Africa former Olympic swimmer.
The twins will be the first twins in the royal household since it was established in the 13th century.
Though they were born by caesarean section, it is the first baby to have been brought out that will inherit the throne if they were of the same sex. Since they are a boy and a girl, the boy will automatically ascend the throne as the king.
The twins will be welcome by 42 cannon shots which will sound as soon as their births are officially announced, instead of the 21 that would have sounded for one baby.
