Births

Rep confirms that comic's wife gave birth in April.

Comedian and presidential roaster Wanda Sykes became the proud mother of twins in late April, reports People magazine. Sykes's wife, Alex, delivered the babies on April 27th, according to the actress' representative. "All are happy and healthy and at home," says Sykes's rep. The babies, daughter Olivia Lou and son Lucas Claude weighed in at 6 lbs., 7 oz., and 7 lbs., 9 oz. respectively. The star of New Adventures of Old Christine met her wife in 2006. The two were married in California on Oct. 25, 2008, but it wasn't until November that the actress publicly came out at a rally against Proposition 8 in Las Vegas.
