Kid’s entertainment star Jimmy Rees (aka Jimmy Giggle) and his wife Tori have welcomed two new additions to their family.

Taking to Instagram, the children’s funny man proudly announced the couple had become parents to two bouncing boys named Vinny and Mack.

Weighing in at 2.33 kg and 2.46 kg respectively, the twins are the latest addition to the Giggle clan joining Jimmy and Tori’s three-year-old son Lenny.

Captioning the post with a sweet message, Jimmy called his wife “a total superstar” and warned his almost 10,000 followers to prepare for an onslaught of “baby spam”.

The news comes just two weeks before the star of Giggle and Hoot is set to appear on the new season of Dancing With The Stars.

Jimmy and Tori’s new arrivals are all the more special given the struggle the duo experienced with conceiving second time around.

Speaking candidly to Stellar magazine in 2018, the media personality admitted it was “proving a little difficult” to expand their brood.

And when he announced Tori’s pregnancy on social media, Jimmy captioned the post with a message of support for other couples.

“We started trying [a] very long time ago and after enduring much heartache, disappointment and feelings of hopelessness we are over the moon,” he wrote.

“To all those who are struggling with infertility, miscarriage and the longing to add to your family, stay strong and try not to loose hope.”
