heatworld’s coming over all broody this afternoon – first, there was the amazing Hello Kitty hospital, and now Ricky Martin has posed with his adorable twin boys for the first time. Matteo and Valentino Martin were born using a surrogate mother back in August – and it sounds like Ricky’s loving being a dad. “I'm so happy!” he says in his first full interview since the birth. “Everything they do, from smiling to crying, feels like a blessing. Being a father feels amazing. This has been the most spiritual moment in my life.” We love how men turn all soppy when they have kids – Ricky also says he doesn’t have a nanny, because “I don’t want to miss a moment”! Aww, it’s all rather cute, isn’t it? Although the singer hasn’t discussed his reasons for using a surrogate mother, he says he disregarded the adoption option because it would take too long. We never thought we’d want Ricky Martin’s babies but, after seeing this photo, the idea is more tempting. Now we just need to persuade him... hmm.
