Sarah Jessica Parker takes twins home

Friday, 26 June 2009

Sarah Jessica Parker has taken her new twin daughters home.

The 'Sex and the City' actress and her husband Matthew Broderick - whose twin daughters Marion Loretta Elwell and Tabitha Hodge were born to a surrogate on Monday (22.06.09) - have left hospital and returned to their family home with their newly-extended brood.

According to staff at the East Ohio Regional Hospital, two vehicles with New York number plates escorted the family from the building at 11am yesterday (25.06.09) surrounded by police vehicles.

Hospital spokeswoman Maggie Espina confirmed: "Yes, they are gone."

During their stay at the medical centre, the Hollywood couple - who already have a six-year-old son James Wilkie - were given a private suite with 24-hour security.

A staff member said: "It's really private up there. They've been using the service elevator to move around."

Security was reportedly so strict, other new mothers were asked to close the doors to their rooms.

One woman said: "Up on the floor everybody had to keep their doors shut. All the patients had to keep their doors shut."

Earlier this week, the couple spoke out about their joy at becoming parents again.

A statement read: "They are delighted to announce the healthy arrival of their two daughters. The babies are doing beautifully and the entire family is over the moon."

Sarah and Matthew announced they were expecting twin daughters via a surrogate in April after they struggled to conceive naturally.
