IT'S A WONDERFUL start to the weekend for the former Limerick TD Tom Neville and partner Jenny Dixon as they welcomed twin girls to the world!
Taking to social media this evening, Jenny, who previously starred as KerriAnn on Fair City posted a picture of herself and Tom with the two little bundles of delight.
Bella Sky Neville and Capri Lucia Neville were born on Monday last, and are doing well, Jenny stated in a tweet.
"We love you so much," she added.
Jenny paid tribute to Prof Jennifer Donnelly and her team of midwives and staff at the Rotunda Hospital.

The couple revealed back in November that Jenny was 17 weeks pregnant with twins.
The actress said: "Just when we thought it may never happen. It happens. Some kind of sacred magic. Faith, positivity, determination and an act of God."
The pair, who wed in Dublin in July 2019, recently moved from Limerick to London, so that Tom, a former Fine Gael TD could take up a new opportunity with social media giants TikTok.
Tom, former Fine Gael TD for Co Limerick retweeted his partner's tweet with six heart emojis, while congratulations have begun pouring in for the happy couple from across Ireland.
Former mayor of Limerick Cllr Daniel Butler tweeted in response to Mr Neville: "Congrats! Health and happiness to mother and babies. Welcome to the best job in the world mate!"
And his ex-Dail colleague, Galway TD Hildegarde Naughton added: "Congratulations to you both. What wonderful news! Every good wish to you, Jenny & your beautiful baby girls".
Former Fine Gael TD Pat Deering also offered his congratulations.
Prior to his cross-channel move Tom, who hails from Croagh, had two spells as a local councillor, followed by a term as a Dail TD following in his father Dan Neville's footsteps.
