Angelina Jolie's Father 'Over The Moon' At Birth Of Twins

Angelina Jolie's once-estranged father Jon Voight is “over the moon” following the birth of his daughter's twins.

The actress finally delivered her babies by Caesarian section at the Fondation Lenval hospital in France on Saturday.

The twins - a girl named Vivienne Marcheline, after Jolie's late mother Marcheline Bertrand, and a boy, Knox Leon - weighed 5 pounds (2.27 kilograms) and 5 pounds 3 ounces (2.35 kilograms) respectively.

Grandfather Voight - who recently made up with his superstar daughter after a six-year feud - says he can't wait to receive the call inviting him to meet the newborn tots.

"I'm over the moon - it's magnificent. In this world, all we can hope for is that mommy and the kids are healthy. I'm very excited. If I were called today, I'd be there," he tells The Insider.

Earlier this year, Voight, who upset his daughter after telling reporters she had "severe emotional problems", promised he would conduct their relationship privately, saying, "If we try to have any relationship in the future, we do it quietly"
