Harry Potter Star Scarlett Byrne Gives Birth to Twin Girls: "Overjoyed"
Scarlett Byrne is officially a mom of three. On March 29, the former "Harry Potter" actor, famously known for her role as Slytherin Pansy Parkisnon, announced the arrival of her twin girls with her husband of three years, Cooper Hefner. "My heart grew twice as much this weekend as Cooper and I welcomed our daughters, Marigold Adele Hefner and Blossom Pearl Hefner into the world," Byrne wrote on Instagram. "Our home is full of love with our three daughters and we couldn't be happier."
"Scarlett and I are overjoyed to share that we welcomed Marigold Adele Hefner and Blossom Pearl Hefner into the world on Saturday, March 26th," Hefner captioned his Instagram post. "Today, we are settling back in at home. How blessed we are to be gifted with their life. How lucky we are to be given this love."
Byrne and Hefner first announced their engagement in 2015 when Hefner, the son of Playboy founder Hugh Hefner, posted a photo collage to his Instagram account. "To many more adventures with this lovely lady @scarleybyrne," he captioned the post. Four years later, on Nov. 4 2019, the couple officially tied the knot. "I love you Cooper," she wrote on Instagram. "I am proud to stand by your side, as your partner, your friend, and your wife. I cannot wait to continue building a life together. My heart is so full and I am so grateful for our love."
"My heart grew twice as much this weekend as Cooper and I welcomed our daughters."
Shortly after getting married, Byrne revealed that she and Hefner were expecting their first child. "Cooper and I are delighted to share that we have a little one on the way," she wrote on March 10, 2020. "Our hearts are filled with gratitude and joy, and the two of us can't wait to meet the newest little Hefner." On Aug. 24, 2020, the couple welcomed a baby girl named Betsy Rose Hefner.
Byrne announced she was expecting again a year later on Nov. 25, 2021. "Thankful for our growing family. Cooper and I are very excited to share that we will be welcoming twins at the beginning of 2022. Wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving ????," she captioned an Instagram post on Nov. 25. In his own Instagram post, Hefner added, "Scarlett and I will be welcoming two new members of the family this spring. We couldn't be happier as we wait on the arrival of our twins."
