Ring the alarm: Beyoncé is pregnant once more.

On Wednesday afternoon, Beyoncé provided the world a much-needed dose of good news by sharing a pregnancy announcement on Instagram. The singer also revealed that she is not just pregnant with one child, but rather twins.

In the Instagram, Beyoncé is posed as an angelic, glamorous Madonna, posed in a bra and underwear, holding her growing belly in front of a wreath of flowers with a veil over her eyes. The surprise had even more of an impact considering no one in the buzzing gossip press even hinted that Beyoncé and Jay-Z were even trying to expand their family.

“We would like to share our love and happiness,” Beyoncé wrote in the Instagram’s caption. “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”

Beyoncé and husband, Jay-Z, share one child together, five-year-old Blue Ivy. The family has previously been very candid about their relationship and pregnancy—revealing that Beyoncé had a miscarriage before giving birth to Blue. She also detailed their martial issues in the explosive Lemonade album.
