Comedian and actor Wanda Sykes, who came out last fall and last week entertained at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner, has just announced that she is also a mom!

Sykes and her spouse Alex (last name unknown) welcomed twins Olivia Lou and Lucas Claude on April 27th. Kudos to them for taking the first few weeks as family time before letting the public know. (And bonus kudos to Alex for letting Sykes jet off to D.C. and leave her with two newborns. At least I’m assuming Alex and the kiddies didn’t go. President Obama better be giving them a really nice baby gift!)

I am thoroughly looking forward to seeing how Sykes incorporates tales of parenthood into her humor!
