The news came after Nelson spent months in the hospital during her pregnancy after her doctors discovered the twins were monochorionic diamniotic (MCDA), meaning they shared a single placenta.
The baby girls were eventually born at 31 weeks on May 15, the singer previously announced, and had been in the hospital since then.
Nelson first revealed her pregnancy on Instagram on Jan. 12, sharing a Polaroid-style photo of herself and her musician boyfriend with the caption: "She's eating for 3 now 👶👶."

Months later, in March, Nelson spoke about the twins' medical condition, explaining in an emotional video at the time that "one baby might take all the nutrients" from the placenta, or "the other might, which — really awful to say — could lead to both babies dying."
A few days later, Nelson shared an update in which she revealed she was experiencing symptoms that doctors had advised her to "watch out for," including her stomach tightening and difficulty breathing. She captioned the video "TTTS update," referring to twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome.
After a checkup at the hospital, Nelson said doctors determined that "they have to perform [a] procedure" to fix the twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome — "which is obviously not what we wanted to happen." She added, "But it's necessary because it's going to give our babies the best chance of surviving."
In April, Nelson shared an update on her emergency procedure on her Instagram Stories, filmed from her hospital room.
"We just wanted to come on here because we are another week further along and we feel so grateful and blessed that these little babies are still going strong," she said at the time.
The "Boyz" singer finally revealed in a May 18 Instagram post that she had welcomed her twins.
"So … Our beautiful baby girls decided to come at 31 weeks plus 5 days," she and Foster wrote in the caption of the joint post. "It all happened so quickly, but we are so blessed that they are here with us, healthy and fighting strong! We've never felt more in love 🥹."
"Everybody, meet Ocean Jade Nelson-Foster and Story Monroe Nelson-Foster. Born on 15.05.2025 🌊📖," the proud parents added.
Nelson has shared a few updates since then, including another lengthy Instagram post in which she opened up about what it was like to watch her children stay in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) for weeks on end.
"Nothing or no one will ever be able to prepare you as a parent for NICU," she wrote in part on May 25. "It's the most scary overwhelming feeling of emotions not being able to feel like you can protect your babies."
"But slowly as the days go by and they get stronger and wires start to come away, moments like this feel like a dream," she continued. "Having them reunited for the first time ever today was the most magical feeling I will never be able to describe 🥹 the strongest little girls I've ever known who really do have the most inspiring story to tell 🤍."

Steven Gerrard's children have sent heartfelt messages to their dad to mark Father's Day. The Liverpool FC legend shares four children with his wife, Alex Gerrard. The couple are proud parents of Lilly Gerrard, Lexie, Lourdes and youngest, son Lio. Gerrard announced his family was complete after he announced Lio's birth in 2017. He said: "Lio George Gerrard was born this morning at 4.55am. Both are doing great. Our family is complete." Lilly is the oldest of Gerrard's children, she celebrated her 21st birthday earlier this year. In a post uploaded to Instagram stories today, she shared six pictures of her and the former footballer. One picture showed the two together when younger and a recent picture, others were family photos.

Lilly announced her pregnancy with partner Lee Byrne in January. Since announcing her pregnancy, the daughter of former Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has shared updates throughout the pregnancy journey. When she first shared the news, she wrote on Instagram: "Our little secret. The best news, mini us is on the way." Lilly and her partner Lee Byrne have been dating for over two years, the two confirmed their relationship in 2022 with a series of pictures from time together in Ibiza, Spain. Last month, the 21-year-old told followers she was "almost there" as she posted two pictures of herself to her Instagram story, both showing off her baby bump. Since January, Lilly, who grew up in Formby, has received an abundance of love and support. Gerrard was one of the first to comment on his daughter's post when she shared the baby news. He commented: "We can't wait. Great news and congratulations we love you." Gerrard regularly shares family updates on social media and has always been vocal about the love he has for his children. Mum Alex, 42, took to the comments and said: "Can't wait." Gerrard's second eldest daughter, Lexie, 18, said: "Can't wait to be a auntie." Steven and Alex have been happily married since 2007 after they tied the knot in a luxurious ceremony at Cliveden House in Berkshire. Lexie Gerrard also shared a message for her dad on Father's Day. She shared a picture of Gerrard with his arm around her as she wrote: "Happy Father's Day dad. I love you so much. Thank you for everything." Another post from Lourdes Gerrard read "the best" alongside a red heart emoji. Away from his family life, Gerrard stepped aside from his duties as manager of Al-Ettifaq in January. Gerrard took to Instagram to reveal he had reached a mutual agreement to part company with the Saudi Pro League club after two years. He said: "After careful consideration, the club and I have mutually agreed to part ways. This was not an easy decision, but sometimes in football, things don't work out as planned. "The Saudi Pro League is a tough and competitive league, and I have nothing but respect for the players and staff who give their all every day. I want to sincerely thank everyone at the club for their support and hard work.

Radiohead's Decades-Old Song Finally Becomes A Rare Chart Hit For The Band
Radiohead's 'Let Down' debuts on four Billboard charts after going viral on TikTok, marking a rare ... More chart smash for the alt-rock legends. Radiohead, Phil Selway, Jonny Greenwood, Thom Yorke, Colin Greenwood, Ed O'Brien, Luna theater, Brussels, Belgium, 05/12/1995. (Photo by) TikTok users have a habit of turning some of the most random songs into hits. One user may cleverly include a track in a video, and in a matter of days, it becomes not only a trending cut on the platform, but also a strong streamer and bestseller, as attention is directed to an older release. Over the past several years, dozens of songs have benefited from going viral in this way. At the moment, Radiohead becomes the latest act to enjoy such a revival with a years-old track that has long been a fan favorite, but never a major chart win until now. The Radiohead tune 'Let Down' has been included in a huge number of uploads and what are known as fan-made edits throughout the past several days. That surge in activity has caused many listeners to turn to streaming platforms and digital download storefronts to consume the song. Some are discovering the composition for the first time, while others are reminded of how much the Radiohead track has impacted them. "Let Down" opens inside the top 20 on each tally it appears on this frame. It launches highest on the Hot Rock Songs list, coming in at No. 14. It also appears on the Hot Alternative Songs and Hot Rock & Alternative Songs rankings at Nos. 18 and 20, respectively. The track even approaches the Hot 100 — the general ranking of the most consumed cuts throughout the U.S. — but instead it is forced to settle for the Bubbling Under Hot 100. That tally ranks the songs that didn't quite make it to the main list, and this time around, "Let Down" starts at No. 20. Despite being one of the most successful names in alternative music history, Radiohead scores just its second career win on the Hot Alternative Songs chart this week. The group previously climbed as high as No. 3 with "Creep." The outfit has now landed eight wins on both the Hot Rock & Alternative Songs and Hot Rock Songs tallies, including this latest arrival.

This Luxury Ship Feels Like a Stunning Mediterranean Resort, With a Gorgeous Pool Deck and Top-notch Cuisine
The ship's overall light and airy ambience, which puts the focus on what's happening outdoors. Top-end suites equipped with wraparound balconies and private whirlpools. A culinary program that brings local tastes and libations on board, through menus, cooking classes, and themed cocktails. Sustainability features include the use of cleaner-burning liquefied natural gas, or LNG. With the Spanish city of Cadiz in full view, I was gleefully dancing around an expansive, resort-like pool deck like it was the 1980s. A live British band was playing George Michael, the Eurythmics, Tears for Fears, and even David Bowie. I only wished I had packed bigger shoulder pads. When I took a break, it was for sips of complimentary Champagne because this was no high-end night club but rather a luxury cruise ship—one that offers all its amenities as part of the package. Want your butler to deliver caviar with all the trimmings? You got it. In fact, my butler thoughtfully added a bottle of Champagne. Or you might ask for a trendy cocktail to sip with endless views. Or you could ask for the surf and turf, embellished with foie gras—or get some fantastic vegan cuisine. Whatever your version of excess and decadence might be, odds are good you can find it on the over-the-top Silver Ray , a 364-cabin ship with a crew of 544. Like its sibling vessel, Silver Nova , which debuted in 2023, Silver Ray is one of the largest operated by Silversea, the luxury line. Still, it's comparatively small by cruise standards, with a distinctive design that emphasizes views of the gorgeous coastlines this ship tends to frequent. My take? The Ray is big enough to not feel crowded, with places to get away and pretend you're on your own yacht. There is also beauty at every turn: a stunning pool on one side of the ship, open-air dining areas, plush fabrics that make you mushy with delight. While on board for a four-day preview cruise in Portugal and Spain, I relished in the niceties and appreciated the less-formal atmosphere on board. Opportunities to indulge aside, this ship is a more comfortable approach to luxury cruising. Like DeBarge sang in the 1980s: 'I Like It.' You really can't go wrong: every suite on Silver Ray has a veranda and butler service. Entry-level accommodations start at 301 square feet, large enough to feel like a nice hotel room, with a table and chairs on the veranda, a walk-in closet, and a marble bathroom with either a large glass shower with a sitting bench or a glass shower and separate tub. The minibar is stocked, the Egyptian cotton bedding is from Milan's Rivolta Carmignani, and the pillow menu has several choices, including hypoallergenic options. If money is no object, the best digs are two aft-facing Otium Suites, which clock in at 1,324 square feet, each with a 421-square-foot wraparound veranda with private whirlpool. La Terrazza. Courtesy of Silversea Cruises Food is part of the pampering, and so are free drinks. There are eight restaurants on board, and while many are free, reservations are recommended. I was a fan of the Italian restaurant, La Terrazza, which introduced a new menu of contemporary Italian cuisine while I was on board. The S.A.L.T. Restaurant, named for Silversea's culinary program Sea and Land Taste, has an ever-changing approach that tailors menus to the destinations the ship is visiting. I was impressed by the Cadiz menu on offer when we were visiting that Spanish city. The Marquee is a pergola-topped, open-air casual venue serving things like pizza and salads. For me, one highlight was the S.A.L.T. Chef's Table, a tasting-menu experience that was limited to 18 guests. Mine was 11 courses of exquisite bites such as a confit of piquillo peppers and salt cod topped with burnt onion, accompanied by the stories of João Sá, who has garnered a Michelin star for his Lisbon restaurant, Sála. Though Chef's Table comes at a hefty additional charge, I thought it was well worth it. The S.A.L.T. Chef's Table. Courtesy of Silversea Cruises Also at extra cost are a Japanese restaurant, Kaiseki, and La Dame, which offers both a classic French menu and a new tasting menu by French chef Jean-Luc Rabanel, who is known for vegetable-forward, Michelin-star gastronomy. (I found it odd, then, that the ship-board menu was heavy on meat.) The S.A.L.T. Bar, with indoor and outdoor seating, was serving Spanish gin and other local beverages on our sailing and became my go-to among several lounge choices. The outdoor terrace of the Panorama Lounge is another good option. For a pick-me-up or quick meal, I really enjoyed Arts Café, which has perfectly foamy lattes and vegan tofu breakfast sandwiches, among other selections. Silver Ray is sailing in the Mediterranean for much of 2025, with trips that range from 6 to 16 nights, many of them hitting the big cruise cities of Barcelona, Civitavecchia (near Rome), Lisbon, and Monte Carlo. The ship heads to Fort Lauderdale in mid-November for the 2026 Caribbean season, before returning to Europe in late March. Fares include a shore excursion in every port, though they tend to be straightforward: a visit to a famous palace, a guided stroll through a city center. I opted for a couple of the at-extra-cost offerings that are part of the S.A.L.T. program. One was a tour of the westernmost vineyard in Europe, Casal de Santa Maria, where I found myself sipping wine and slurping oysters with Baron Nicholas von Bruemmer, whose Latvian grandfather founded the place. The Silver Ray pool deck. Courtesy of Silversea Cruises The chic pool deck is a focal point for the whole ship, surrounded by two decks of open space with fabulous views. There's a cushy lounge chair for everyone and, as I mentioned, room to dance too. Elsewhere, at the ship's Roman-inspired Otium Spa, I indulged in a soothing and energizing four-technique massage. In between treatments and dips in the spa's small hydrotherapy pool, you can sip champagne. At a cooking class in the S.A.L.T. Lab, I learned to make Portuguese cream tarts (though not, alas, Lisbon's famous pastéis de nata ). Otium Spa. Courtesy of Silversea Cruises A lively group fills the ship's small casino. Jazz fans head to the supper club for small bites served with a dose of Cole Porter. And those who find shopping for vintage Hermes and Chanel bags a form of entertainment will find that option onboard, too. In the impressive, two-story show lounge, singers and dancers perform and you can also catch a lecture. Silversea says kids are welcome as long as they're older than 6 months, but the vibe on board is pretty adult: there's no kids' pool, no kids' club, no babysitting offered. That being said, the ship has an assortment of connecting suites, including a two-bedroom Master Suite that connects for up to six guests. Silver Ray has four wheelchair accessible Premium Veranda Suites and two, larger wheelchair accessible Silver Suites. Public areas of the ship are accessible, and crew can provide assistance on the rare occasions that ports require stairs (rather than ramps) to disembark. I also noticed braille signage in public rooms, staterooms, and in elevators—which is something not all cruise ships have.
