Well if Clay Aiken can do it, why not Ricky Martin too! Martin’s publicist has confirmed that he’s the father of twin boys! Ricky’s new babies were born a few weeks ago with a little help from a surrogate mother and a good turkey baster.

Ricky’s spokesperson issued the following statement to the AP: “The children, delivered via gestational surrogacy, are healthy and already under Ricky’s full-time care. Ricky is elated to begin this new chapter in his life as a parent and will be spending the remainder of the year out of the public spotlight in order to spend time with his children.”

No details were given on the birth of the babies, nor their names. Well congratulations to Ricky! In recent years, the multi-platinum singer Puerto Rican star has been active in charitable efforts, including the prevention of sexual exploitation of children
