John Osborne’s newborn twins are officially headed home from the hospital.
The Brothers Osborne artist and his wife, Lucie Silvas, announced the birth of twins Maybelle and Arthur on March 21. John shared that Arthur was born at 1:43 a.m., weighing 3lb, 13oz, and Maybelle followed at 1:44 a.m., at 5lb, 1 oz. He deemed Silvas a “damn warrior princess” and “a damn boss.” The proud parents brought Arthur and Maybelle home from the NICU, and Osborne captioned a photo on Instagram: “Homeward bound with the bubs.”
“Arthur and Maybelle have changed our lives in ways I can’t possibly describe. All I can do is cry with happiness and amazement. Being their Mum and holding them is the best feeling I’ve ever felt,” Lucie shared in a statement posted to Instagram on March 25. “To watch John become a dad is also probably the best thing that’s ever happened to me. …Very grateful and can’t wait to all come home together, as a family.”
Osborne and Silvas tied the knot in 2015. They previously opened up about undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) to start their family. Osborne posted a statement to Brothers Osborne’s social media channels on March 20 to announce that Silvas had gone into labor unexpectedly. The duo — made up of TJ Osborne, and releasing new music soon — dropped out of the lineup at LOVE RISING: A benefit concert and celebration of Life and Liberty, a star-studded event to benefit the Tennessee Equality Project, Inclusion Tennessee, Out Memphis and The Tennessee Pride Chamber in partnership with the Looking Out Foundation.
“Turns out my and Lucie’s twins, Maybelle and Arthur, have picked up the Osborne tradition of arriving unannounced and could be here any second now! Lucie is a damn warrior and is currently holding down the fort from the hospital bed as I type this,” Osborne said when he made the announcement.
