    Ricky Martin is a dad!!

    Source: People.com

    Ricky Martin is a father to twin boys born via a surrogate, his rep confirms to PEOPLE.

    "In recent weeks, Ricky Martin became a proud father by the birth of twin sons," his rep tells PEOPLE.

    "The children, delivered via gestational surrogacy, are healthy and already under Ricky's full-time care," the rep said in a statement. "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."

    The boys' names and the location of their birth have not been released.

    The "Livin' La Vida Loca" singer, 36, is a longtime supporter of children's causes around the globe through his Ricky Martin Foundation.

    Just saw this on another website now. Seems a bit strange/ random doesn't it?! Well fair play to him. Seems to confirm all the gay rumours anyway. You'd think the video for Living La Vida Loca made it obvious enough anyway!

    Aw lovely. Congratulations to the happy, um, daddy.

    Why is it always twins these days though? Are no celebs having singlets anymore?

    Perez has something about a Catholic bishop in uh, some country criticising Ricky Martin for having the kids this way.

    Edit - Found it. From here:
    Not everyone is happy with Ricky Martin's new twinsies!

    The Catholic church's Cardinal of Honduras, Oscar Andres Rodriguez, has accused the singer of going against human dignity!

    According to a new report, on a visit to Chile, the Catholic leader said, "What Martin did diminishes the dignity of a human being. You can't just buy or rent life. It's even worse when someone famous and in the public eye is doing it."

    Then there's Mexican talk show host Esteban Arce who said, "I don't think it's right to deny children of maternal figures, just because you have a big ego."

    The Catholic church being homophobic, what's new?

    Does the Cardinal feel the same way about hetero couples who 'hire' a surrogate?

    Oh and in case you didn't know, Ricky's surrogate mother is rumored to be one of his cousins.
    The whole thing creeps me out a bit tbh.

    No, MILF, he himself has never said that he is gay.
