Singer, Clare Bowditch and her parter Marty Brown, welcomed their identical twin boys; Oscar and Elijah in January 2006, brothers for their daughter, Asha, 3.

Clare wrote in an open letter to her fans: “Having twins move in to our house has absolutely blown our minds, in a good way. It is extremely full on, yet absolutely delightful. I hope this explains why I haven’t written for such a long time. I would really like to tell you about their birth - it’s a pretty good story actually. Attempting to give birth naturally to twins in the Australian ‘hospital-system’ is pretty funny. And surprisingly political. But possible. Perhaps I’ll leave that story for a future open-letter.”

Clare gave birth naturally to her twins, who weighed in at 8lb and 7lbs respectively, so hopefully in her next open letter on her website she does discuss her pregnancy/birth because most celebs seems to have caesareans these days.

“People keep asking me when I’m going to return to work. It’s a funny question in a way, because when you’re working on something like ‘music’, you of course never really ‘leave’ at all.

Clare and her family spent a few months in Berlin in the last half of 2008, working on a new album. To visit Clare's website and hear her amazing music, click here.
