Ronnie Wood, the guitarist of Rolling Stones, became a father at the age of 68 with 38-year-old Sally Wood. The couple had twin daughters whom they named Gracie Jane and Alice Rose.
Wood’s wife, who is a theater producer, gave birth on Monday and shared it on Twitter saying, "Thank you all so much for the love. Can't believe our babies are a day old already. They are wonderful."
Reports reveal that if the babies were not yet delivered later in the week, Sally will be having an induced labor, IOL reported.
"Ronnie & Sally Wood are delighted to announce the birth of their twins Gracie Jane (6lb) & Alice Rose (5.7lb). The girls arrived on 30 May at 22:30 and all are doing brilliantly. The babies are perfect," said a statement released from the family, according to Billboard.
Meanwhile, on the eve of the arrival of his baby girls, Wood shared how excited he is to see his babies when he tweeted a selfie with the caption, “Waiting #38weeks+.”
“I’m getting excited about the arrival of my twin girls sometime in the next few weeks,” he also posted on May 15, People reported.
The "Gimme Shelter" rocker already has grown up children. He has a 39-year-old son named Jesse with his late ex-wife Krissy Findlay.
