British rock star announces he and his wife are expecting twins as they discover the gender of their unborn babies in heartwarming clip
Bring Me the Horizon's lead singer, Oli Sykes, revealed his wife is pregnant with twins in a wholesome Instagram video on Sunday. The Kent-born rocker, 38, will be welcoming the children with his Brazilian spouse Victoria Alissa Salles Silva, who he wed in 2017. Their heartwarming announcement on Sunday showed the loved-up couple sat at a table together anxiously waiting to bite into two cupcakes - the colour of which would reveal the gender of their babies. With their dog eagerly perched by their side, Victoria says: 'Are you ready?' before biting into the first cake to reveal they will be having a girl. Oli then takes a bite of his own iced cupcake, which displays blue, meaning the other baby will be a boy. And the couple looked elated with the result of their gender reveal, with Victoria letting out a scream and her rock star husband crying: 'Oh my f****** god!' The announcement sent fans into a frenzy, with the Instagram post gaining more than 250,000 likes and a host of stars congratulating the couple in the comments section. Model Abbey Clancy wrote: 'Aaahhh so lovely' Pretty Girl singer Maggie Lindemann also took to the comments, writing: 'Omg congratulations'. While a clearly excited fan simply wrote: 'So unbelievably happy for you both!' 'Imagine you're a new born baby and your father is Oli Sykes... Biggest flex,' another quipped. The news comes as Oli's band Bring Me The Horizon gear up to headline this summer's Reading & Leeds Festivals, which will go ahead on August's bank holiday weekend between the 21st and 24th. The band have headlined the festival on one previous occasion, when they fronted it alongside Dave, Arctic Monkeys and The 1975 in 2022, and even invited Ed Sheeran on-stage. Bring Me The Horizon will be joined by Chappel Roan and Utopia hitmaker Travis Scott as this year's headliners. Irish singer-songwriter Hozier will too play the festival.

Huge UK rock star reveals his stunning wife is pregnant with twins
A HUGE rocker has revealed that his stunning wife is pregnant with twins. Oli Sykes, 38, who is the lead vocalist for rock band Bring Me the Horizon, has announced that he and his Brazilian model wife Victoria Alissa Salles Silva, 27, will soon be parents. 5 5 5 Taking to social media to share a sweet video revealing the happy news, Oli left fans in a frenzy. Oli has been married to Alissic, born Victoria Alissa Salles Silva, since 2017. They met while she was working as a model for his Drop Dead Clothing collection. In the video he shared, both Oli and Victoria could be seen sitting at their dining table with a box each in front of them. Opening the boxes, they each got out a cupcake that would end up revealing the gender of their twins. "Oh my god," Victoria said as she opened her box. "Are you ready?" she asked Oli, to which he said: "Bite it, bite it." Victoria took a bite and then revealed that there was pink sponge inside the first cupcake. Oli declared: "We're having a baby girl!" The rocker then opened his box and munched into his cupcake. Bring Me The Horizon perform their hit single Can You Feel My Heart As Oli revealed the colour inside his cake, the pair both screamed loudly. "Oh my god, no f**king way, no f**king way," Oli said as he turned the cupcake around so it was in view of the camera lens. Showing off the blue sponge, it was revealed that the pair would be welcoming a baby daughter and a baby son. Victoria then said: "This is crazy!" What are the different types of twins? TWINS are when two children are produced in the same pregnancy. They can be identical or different, and two boys, two girls, or a girl and a boy. Twins are quite rare, but are usually born completely healthy What are the different types of twins? Monozygotic – identical twins ('one cell' twins) Dizygotic – also known as 'fraternal', non identical twins. Babies are no more alike than siblings born at separate times, and they can be the same or different sexes Conjoined twins – identical twins that are joined together. They are extremely rare, and it's estimated they range from one in 49,000 to 189,000 births, although around half are stillborn, and one third die within 24 hours. Can identical twins be two different sexes? Identical twins are always of the same sex because they form from the same fertilised egg that contains either female or male chromosomes. The single egg is divided into two separate embryos, and they occur in about three in every 1000 deliveries worldwide. Therefore, boy/girl twins are always fraternal (or dizygotic), as their chromosomes are either XY (male) or XX (female). What are Di Di twins? Di Di stands for Dichronic Diamniotic, and they are the common type of twins. They have their own amniotic sacs and placenta, so are just sharing the womb of the mother, and are therefore not identical. There are few complications with Di Di twins, so have a good chance of being born completely healthy without intervention from your doctor. Di di twins are more likely to be non-identical than identical. Commenting on the post, one person said: "Congratulations to you both." Another added: "This is the cutest thing I've ever seen CONGRATS." "You hit the lottery omg twins and a boy n girl," penned a third. A fourth then wrote: "OMG Oli is going to be a father! Did not expect the news of twins, but congrats to you both." While a fifth said: "OMG I'M FOLLOWING HAPPINESS!!!!! PLEASE BE HEALTHY!!! Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!" And a sixth added: "So exciting. Best feeling in the world." Bring Me the Horizon are a British rock band. They were formed in Sheffield more than 20 years ago in 2004. The group currently consists of lead vocalist Oli, drummer Matt Nicholls, guitarist Lee Malia and bassist Matt Kean. 5
