In early April, Oscar nominee Gabourey Sidibe and her husband, Brandon Frankel, celebrated the arrival of their twins. The couple welcomed a baby boy named Cooper and a baby girl named Maya. The heartwarming family photos, first reported by The Shade Room, capture the radiant parents cuddling their newborns. Sidibe, wearing a vibrant orange dress, looks blissful as she holds her babies. Frankel, donning a red beanie, tenderly kisses their daughter while Sidibe rests her head on his shoulder, cradling their squirming son. The couple chose traditional West African middle names for their twins, honoring family members. Cooper, affectionately called “Coop,” is known for his funny facial expressions and

love of sleep. Maya, the queen of comedic timing, enjoys having her name sung to her. Although they haven’t interacted much yet, both twins share strength and humor. Sidibe’s pregnancy announcement on IG earlier this year delighted fans. She playfully wrote, “We thought it was time to give our cats some responsibility, so we’re giving them each a baby to take care of! Double the babies, double the cats, double the fun!!” Now, as they settle into family life, the couple looks forward to sing-alongs, exploring, and raising their twins to be good-hearted individuals. Congratulations to Gabourey Sidibe and Brandon Frankel on this joyous chapter of their lives!
