PARFITT IS A FATHER AGAIN AT 59

STATUS QUO rocker RICK PARFITT is relieved after his wife LYNDSAY safely gave birth to two healthy twins on Monday (26May08).
The couple was overjoyed when they discovered they were expecting last October (07) after undergoing IVF treatment - but just a week later Lyndsay, 47, was taken to hospital suffering from a suspected miscarriage.
But the babies survived and Lyndsay was able to carry the pregnancy to term - giving birth to the boy and girl at a hospital close to their home in Spain.
The proud parents have named the new arrivals Tommy Oswald and Lily Rose.
The guitarist, 59, already has two sons, Harry, 18, and Richard, 29, from previous marriages. The couple married in a secret ceremony in Gibraltar in August 2006.
