Made In Chelsea's Ollie Locke and his husband Gareth have welcomed twins via surrogate, after three years of trying for a family.

"Guys, the news we've been wanting to tell you for so many years – we are finally dads!" said Ollie, 36, in an Instagram video.

"The twins are here!" added Gareth, 36, while Ollie cheekily explained: "And you can only see them on our YouTube channel!"

The twins are now six weeks old, and have been named Apollo Magnus Obi and Cosima Emily Bex. Apollo weighed 3lb 10oz, while Cosima was 2lb 11oz.

The video shared by Ollie and Gareth showed them collecting the twins then welcoming them to their new home.

"There's two babies, not one, and they're both screaming," said Ollie.

Back in February, it was announced that their chosen mother had finally fallen pregnant after their many failed IVF attempts in recent years.

Then OK! revealed how Ollie had asked co-star Sophie Hermann to be the godmother to the babies. Liv Bentley and Sophie Hermann are also lucky godmothers.

Updating his social media fanbase with a sweet holiday selfie next to Sophie, 36, Ollie, 36, wrote on Instagram: "Perfect when we make you buy flights to be with us around the world to make us laugh and drink tequila! We love you @sophiehermann #godmother X."

This heartwarming tying of the two families was celebrated by many commenters, with three reactions reading: "She seems like the funniest of ladies, so love this for you all", "@sophiehermann will make the best godmother!" and "Sophie you're an absolute darling! So much class… ensure the little girly twin follows in your footsteps. X."

Ollie had previously taken to Instagram to share a compilation video that featured an ultrasound scan and some of his favourite moments with his husband as they announced the happy pregnancy news.

Alongside the touching video, Ollie wrote in the caption: "We are beyond delighted to finally be able to share the news that we are expecting twin baby Locke-Locke’s into the world this summer!

"You have all been so wonderful throughout the last 3 years of us trying to have a family and we promise to share every step of this adventure with you all.
