Meet Ricky Martin's Twins!

Well it's about time! Ricky Martin introduced his twin sons to the world this morning via a beachside photo spread in the new issue of People Magazine. The boricua star is pictured cradling 4-month-old Matteo and Valentino Martin alongside la playa in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and per usual, he's got nothing but beautiful, spiritually enlightened words to share. "Everything they do, from smiling to crying, feels like a blessing," says Ricky. "Being a father feels amazing. This has been the most spiritual moment in my life."

Though the boys are twins, it seems they already have distinct personalities: "Valentino loves to sleep. I call him 'Mr. Peace and Love' because he's
so chill and serene. Matteo is more alert and active. He was up at 3
a.m. the other night and just hanging!"


Like Jennifer and Marc did before him
, Ricky insists that he does not use a nanny: "I have a personal assistant who helps me, someone who takes care of me
while I'm taking care of them, but I'm the one who changes the diapers,
the one that feeds them, the one that bathes them, the one that puts
them to sleep." Ingenious. We're so hiring an adult nanny for ourselves when we have kids.

Finally, Ricky shares what we already knew--that he's a wonderful papi. "I love to read books to my sons and tell them stories. I play music for
them so they develop their own personalities. I want to give them
information and raise them with honesty and love, and give them
self-esteem and a lot of acceptance."

Ok, our hearts are literally melting. We love this man! What's your impression of Ricky Martin as a father?

The twins are looking very cute. Does anyone know who the mom is? He seems like a great dad, but why is the mother such a secret? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Earn Money Online | UK Paid Surveys

wow, Ricky Martin a dad! Livin' la vida loca and now he's got kiddos-Isn't life grand. Congratulations to you and your chosen partner. Care for these wonderful children as they are always gifts and blessings from above.
Good for you Ricky, you're a wonderful human being and a great father who isn't too "macho" (ugh!) to admit his greatest joy comes from looking after his kids, what a MAN! Doesn't matter who the mother is, he chose her because from what I've read he knows her well and loves her as a friend. The important thing is that his sons are going to be raised by a loving attentive papi and also be surrounded by many loving extended family members. God bless you and your gorgeous sons Ricky.

I just had a baby of my own, my first little girl Angelina. I'm so proud of her and so happy that my husband is a wonderful daddy too, just like Ricky Martin. Seeing a man holding his baby, feeding, playing, kissing his baby is the most beautiful thing in the world. I'm so glad to see more and more celebrities embracing their maturity and becoming wonderful parents. Congratulations, Ricky!! P.S. Who is the mommy?
