Their journey to fatherhood has taken over three years, with euphoric highs and heartbreaking lows along the way.
But now, sitting with their twin son and daughter in their arms, Ollie and Gareth Locke-Locke finally have the family of their dreams.
“The babies are here – this is what we’ve been waiting for. It’s this wonderful moment when we know that we’re the fathers we always wanted to be,” says Ollie, 36, as the two Made in Chelsea stars invite HELLO! into their south-west London home for their first photoshoot as a family of four – or six, if you count their dogs Aslan and Bear.
“The journey makes the end result all the more worthwhile and now they’re here, it’s the best gift,” adds Gareth, 34, of their precious six-week-old twins, whose names are Apollo Magnus Obi and Cosima Emily Bex.
FAMOUS FRIENDS
Apollo, who was born weighing 3lb 10oz, and Cosima, who was 2lb 11oz, are lucky enough to already have a band of doting “godmothers” in the friends: Liv Bentley and Sophie Hermann, who have both met the newborns, plus Binky Felstead, who is “desperate” to get in some cuddles once she’s back from her summer holiday.
