Gabourey Sidibe’s Husband Brandon Shares Update on Their Twin’s Swim Lessons

Gabourey Sidibe’s husband is sharing an update on their twin toddlers’ swimming lessons.

On Wednesday, Aug. 13, the actress’s husband Brandon Frankel shared an update on their 15-month-old twin toddlers Cooper and Maya after they started swimming lessons. The proud dad of two shared a few photos of the couple’s twins in the water before sharing that they’ve been adjusting well to the water.

“The Twins are deep into their swim classes, and it’s so wild to watch them go from crying most of the class the first few times to fully kicking, treading, going under water, and not crying at all,” Frankel wrote in his caption.

“They’re getting so big my heart can’t take it. Continually proud of them- being your Dad is such an honor 😭😭😭.”

In July, Frankel shared a series of photos on his Instagram and shared that his twins Cooper and Maya had started swimming lessons.

“Throwback to the first time we ever took the Twins in the pool!” Frankel wrote next to photos of the family of four spending time together in a pool.

“They started proper swimming lessons semi recently, and it’s just so wild to see how little and squishy they were! They’re growing up so so fast- so squishy! 😭😭😭.”

On this year’s Father’s Day, Frankel shared that he got the ultimate gift after he posted a series of photos on Instagram of Sidibe and their twins Cooper and Maya just after she gave birth to them a little over a year ago. In the first photo, Sidibe looked shocked as she held her two babies on either side of her, sitting in her hospital room.

“For Father’s Day, @gabbysidibe gifted me permission to share the funniest picture I’ve probably ever taken in my life- her super duper high on morphine being absolutely flabbergasted that she had just given birth to two whole babies!” Frankel wrote in his caption.

“Her face is absolute shock, and I love it. I know today is ‘about me’, but let’s be real…I wouldn’t be a Father without the grueling 9 months she went through, and these two absolute angels that came from it. That day my entire world changed, and I’m so grateful for it.”

Then in April, Frankel showed off a new tattoo on his forearm in honor of the couple’s twins. Written in blue-black ink, the simple script read his kids’ names.

In a carousel of photos, Frankel posed with the tattoo by his kids, sweetly showing off the piece of art. “Oops! I did it again. Been wanting to get the Twins’ names tattooed on me since they were born, and finally decided to make it happen,” Frankel wrote in his caption.

“They both deserved some real estate. Now I get to walk around with all three of my favorite people permanently on my body. You guys deserve this. Also included some other recents 🥰😍.”
