Lily Allen shares news of Mani's twins

The Stone Roses bassist Mani has welcomed two sons with wife Imelda Mounfield.

The 50-year-old took to Twitter to reveal the names of his two new sons Gene Clark and George Christopher.

Using his wife’s Twitter account he wrote: “Mani here, we have had two gorgeous boys today, Gene Clark & George Christopher, many thanks for the well wishes, love n peace to all."

Lily Allen – now known by her married name Lily Cooper retweeted the message to all her 3,873,101 followers.

The Stone Roses bassist knew about the twins’ arrival before the band's comeback gigs in Manchester's Heaton Park last summer but kept the news under wraps.

The reformed Manchester legends announced three UK shows for 2013 in October.

They are set to play two nights in London's Finsbury Park on June 7 and 8 followed by a single show at Glasgow Green on June 15.

Primal Scream, Jake Bugg and The View are in the line-up as supporting acts.
