On the October 5 episode of Good Morning America, Academy Award-winning actress Hilary Swank shared the joyous news: She is expanding her family with her husband Philip Schneider. She revealed, “This is something 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.”

Shortly after appearing on GMA, the actress was a guest on Live with Kelly and Ryan, confirming that the rumors were true. Swank posted a video to Instagram, writing, “Coming soon… DOUBLE FEATURE!” She ended the caption with two angel emojis. She states that this next phase in her life is “such a blessing. It’s a total miracle. It’s unbelievable.”

In addition to her win, the sports drama swept the Oscars, winning Best Motion Picture, Best Director for Clint Eastwood, and Best Actor in a supporting role for Morgan Freeman.
