The couple 'feel like they’ve hit the family jackpot' in light of the big news, the source told the magazine.

'When George and Amal found out it was twins they were surprised,' the source said, 'but also a little scared because they both had said that one was enough.

'But the news that it was a boy and a girl made them both really happy ... they can’t believe in just a few months, they’re going to have two babies.'

In addition to InTouch, Amal's pregnancy with twins was reported by The Lebanon Daily Star earlier this year.

The couple got engaged less than a year later in April 2014 and married on September 27, 2014 at Ca'Farsetti Palace - located in Venice, Italy in front of 100 guests.

A notorious Hollywood bachelor, George once vowed he would never get married again and never have children.
