Swank first announced that she was pregnant with twins on Good Morning America last year.

“I’m so happy to share it with you, and America, right now. This is something that I’ve been wanting for a long time, and my next thing is I’m going to be a mom,” Swank said in October.

“I’m going to be a mom. And not just of one, but of two,” she smiled. “I can’t believe it.”
