Beyoncé and Jay-Z have welcomed their twins

The singer has welcomed twins according to reports

According to People magazine Beyoncé has welcomed her twin babies with her husband Jay-Z.

A source told the mag, “Bey and Jay are thrilled and have started sharing the news with their family and closest friends.”

Fans were left convinced the 'Single Ladies' singer was in labour earlier in the week when a photo of her mum in a hospital waiting room landed on social media.

The 35-year-old announced she was adding to her family back in February when she shared a shot of herself cradling her baby bump on a backdrop of flowers.

Taking to Instagram to share the post, she wrote, 'We would like to share our love and happiness. We have been blessed two times over. We are incredibly grateful that our family will be growing by two, and we thank you for your well wishes. - The Carters'

The 'Halo' singer later released more photos from her pregnancy shoot, looking amazing as she showed off her bump.

Since then many fans believed Beyoncé had been dropping subtle hints at the sex of her twins. Firstly fans thought the couple were expecting boys when Queen Bey recycled some of her old earrings.

Bey posted a stunning snap of herself wearing a LBD and some very big earrings to her Instagram page...

Some eagle eyed fans noticed the earrings were the ones she had on in her 2008 music video for her track 'If I Were A Boy'.

Meanwhile, the new arrivals come just a few months after Beyoncé and Jay-Z celebrated their nine-year wedding anniversary.

The couple, who also share five-year-old daughter Blue Ivy, married back in April 2014 and shared some never before seen footage to celebrate their anniversary.

Bey shared a stunning video on Instagram for her track ‘Die With You’, which featured amazing footage of herself and Jay-Z from their wedding!

Beyoncé's mum also shared an adorable snap of her daughter and step son on their wedding day.

Since then, Beyoncé has been keeping her fans up to date on her pregnancy progress and has shared a number of adorable snaps of her bump and her daughter Blue Ivy.

She also gave fans a behind the scenes look at her African themed baby shower which she held in May.

Labelled 'The Carter Push Party', the 'Formation' singer posted photos of the family-friendly event on Instagram.

The cute snaps show Beyoncé looking fantastic as she dances with Jay-Z at their party. The 35-year-old was photographed wearing an African-style headdress, while her massive pregnancy bump was on full show.
