Double trouble for this tennis ace...

Second time lucky? Or should we say fourth time lucky?

Tennis ace Roger Federer and his wife Mirka have welcomed twin boys into the world – Leo and Lenny.

Roger couldn’t contain his excitement when he posted on Twitter:

He tweeted “Mirka and I are so incredibly happy to share that Leo and Lenny were born this evening! #TwinsAgain #Miracle”

At 32 years old, the Swiss star is now a father of four having already welcomed two gorgeous older siblings for his twin boys, Charlene Riva and Myla Rose (also twins) born in July 2009.

Roger had pulled out of the Madrid Open to make sure he was there for the boys arrival.

We wish Roger and Mirka all the best with their two sets of twins!

Do you have twins? Do they run in your family?

I love this story, I had twins and nothing can compare with 2 babies developing at the same time, even close together sibling can not compare, and to get two sets they are certainly blessed, they are costly to raise but I am sure he will cope, I wish the family all the best, they are vey fortunate

He is such an incredible person, other than being a tennis star, a genuinely lovely man.

How fantastic and how clever of these two wonderful parents. They will have their work cut out for them and I’m sure they will enjoy every moment of it.

No twins in my family, but I’d actually love to have a set.
