On a day dedicated to love and affection, celebrated actress Hilary Swank chose to share a glimpse of her most cherished gifts – her twin babies.
In a heartfelt Instagram post on Valentine’s Day, Swank introduced her 10-month-old twins to the world. While she kept their faces private, the backdrop of a serene oceanside beautifully framed the moment. The highlight of the post? The reveal of their unique names.
At 49, Swank’s journey to motherhood was a story of joy and anticipation. She first announced her pregnancy with twins in October 2022 during an appearance on “Good Morning America.” Expressing her long-held desire to become a mother, she said, “This is something that I’ve been wanting for a long time and my next thing is I’m gonna be a mom. And not just of one, but of two. I can’t believe it.”
Known for her role in “Alaska Daily,” Swank shared only a few updates during her pregnancy. Each post, however, radiated with her happiness. In April 2023, she joyously announced the arrival of her son and daughter, celebrating the Easter holiday with a touching post. “It wasn’t easy. But boy (and girl!) was it worth it,” she wrote, sharing the bliss of new motherhood.
Swank and her husband, Philip Schneider, have since been very private about their family life. In fact, this Valentine’s Day post marked only the second appearance of the twins on Swank’s Instagram since their birth.
The recent photo shared by Swank is nothing short of magical. It features the twins seated before the ocean, with their names – Aya and Ohm – creatively spelled out in leaves behind them. Swank, poised for a busy week of talk shows to discuss her new film and a partnership, chose this special day to share her twins’ names with her fans first.
The response to the twins’ names has been overwhelmingly positive, with many finding the names charming and unique. Swank’s Valentine’s Day post not only celebrates her love for her children but also invites her fans into a small, yet significant part of her personal life.
