Penn Badgley welcomes twin boys with wife Domino Kirke

There is a new addition to the family! 

You star Penn Badgley has announced that he is now officially a dad of four, as he revealed that he and his wife, Domino Kirke, welcomed twin boys in an Instagram video. 

While promoting an upcoming live event for his book Crushmore, which he co-wrote with his Podcrushed co-hosts Nava Kavelin and Sophie Ansari, Badgley gave fans a sweet glimpse of his newborns.

“Interrupting twin paternity leave to announce a live event @podcrushed at @symphonyspace Oct 14 NYC supporting the release of our book CRUSHMORE. Truly proud of this one. Please check it out! @podcrushed for all info,” he captioned the post. 

In the video, Badgley speaks in a hushed tone as he announces the event before turning the camera to show the tiny feet of one of his newborns.

“There’s tiny little baby feet right there,” he whispers. 

He added, “I don’t want to wake them up.”

The twins join the couple’s 4-year-old son, along with Kirke’s 16-year-old son, Cassius, from a previous relationship with Morgan O’Kane. 

In an interview with Access Hollywood, Badgley has previously spoken about the responsibility of raising boys, reflecting on his “dad superpower.” 

“They’re identical boys, so now we have four boys. You know, I do mean this sincerely. It sounds a bit tacky, but the world needs more good men, so you know, pressure’s on us to raise them well.”

He continued, “Well, it’s my patience until I’ve lost it, and then I’m just as bad as anybody else. But I can be very patient.”

Badgley started dating Kirke in 2014. A year later, they made their first public appearance together at the LoveEMC Fundraiser in New York City.

The two got married in a courthouse ceremony in February 2017.
