Jon Voight delighted with Jolie-Pitt twins
Angelina Jolie’s actor father Jon Voight has spoken of his joy at the birth of her twins, confessing he is “deeply happy” with the news.
The actress delivered her babies by Caesarian section at the Fondation Lenval hospital in France on Saturday.
The twins, named Vivienne Marcheline, after Jolie’s late mother Marcheline Bertrand, and Knox Leon, weighed 5 pounds and 5 pounds 3 ounces respectively.
Grandfather Voight, who recently made up with his superstar daughter after a six-year feud, can’t wait to receive the call inviting him to meet the newborn tots.
He tells The Insider, “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.”
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”.
