After it was reported that the babies were being kept under close eye, the message shows that they are going to be just fine – and the nation was breathe a sigh of relief!

Superstar Beyoncé, 35, and her rapper husband Jay Z, 47, haven’t yet taken the baby boy and girl home, according to TMZ.

The couple are having to keep them under supervision, as doctors don’t “feel comfortable” releasing them just yet.

US magazine People said: “Bey and Jay are thrilled and have started sharing the news with their family and closest friends.”

Mathew and his daughter Beyoncé have had many disagreements in the past, all of which came to a head when she fired him as he was the manager of Destiny’s Child.

It seems that all of that is in the past now.

The week-old babies will be joining 5-year-old Blue Ivy, who will undoubtedly be head over heels in love with them, as she now has two younger siblings to play with.

The Single Ladies singer shared the wonderful news with the world in February with a photo that definitely grabbed a lot of attention.

It has now been liked more than 11 million times!

It read: “We have been blessed two times over.

“We are incredibly grateful that our family will be growing by two, and we thank you for your well wishes.”
