In an emotional Instagram post, doting mum praised the twins for “conquering [their] daily challenges” and being “beautiful inside and out, in an extra special way”.

The couple are also parents to daughter Felicity, one.

Christine recently revealed she could see signs of autism in Felicity too, but a diagnosis could not be explored until she is older.
