Sarah Palin's family is about to get a lot bigger this holiday season.
Palin's daughter, 24-year-old Willow, announced on Monday that she was pregnant with twins.
She broke the news to social media with a photo of two baby outfits, a sonogram, and a frame with the words "and then there were four."
"@rickyb901 and I are so excited to welcome TWO little babies into this world!" Palin captioned the photo and added the hashtag #twins.
Mom and former Alaska governor Palin commented on her daughter's post with congratulatory emojis and wrote "ECSTATIC &BLESSEDx2."
Palin and Ricky Bailey got married in September 2018, almost a year after getting engaged in December 2017 in New York.
"Good things happen!!!" her mom wrote to social media during the engagement. "My happiest baby girl Willow and Ricky, last night at Rockefeller Center!!! So, so happy."

Ellen DeGeneres has been on our television screens for almost two decades. She’s always been very open with her viewers about the things that she has gone through. So much so, that you may have thought that you knew everything there was to know about DeGeneres.
But on season two of Netflix’s My Next Guest Needs No Introduction with David Letterman, DeGeneres opened up about a very intimate topic. Her sexual assault.
What happened to DeGeneres?
On the show, DeGeneres talked about a man that her mother, Betty, married. Soon after the wedding, Betty was diagnosed with breast cancer and had to have one of her breasts removed.
“He told me when she was out of town that he’d felt a lump in her breast and needed to feel my breasts because he didn’t want to upset her, but he needed to feel mine,” DeGeneres said. “Again, ’cause I didn’t know about bodies, I don’t know that breasts are all different and… Anyway, he convinced me that he needs to feel my breasts and then he tries to do it again another time, and then another time.”
The situation escalated until DeGeneres felt that she needed to get out.
“He tries to break my door down, and I kicked the window out and ran ’cause I knew it was going to go more to something… and I didn’t want to tell my mother ’cause I was protecting her and I knew that would ruin her happiness.”
Though the incident was hard for DeGeneres to recount, she felt that it was important for her to do so.
“I’m angry at myself because, you know, I didn’t — I was too weak to stand up to — I was 15 or 16,” she told Letterman. “It’s a really horrible, horrible story and the only reason I’m actually going to go into detail about it is because I want other girls to not ever let someone do that.”
Does DeGeneres still talk to her mom?
DeGeneres did eventually tell her mother what happened. But by that time, Betty didn’t believe her.
“I should never have protected her,” DeGeneres said. “I should have protected myself and I didn’t tell her for a few years and then I told her. And then she didn’t believe me and then she stayed with him for 18 more years. And finally left him because he’d changed the story so many times.”
DeGeneres and her mother have a better relationship now, but she still wishes that her mom had done more for her when she was growing up.
“I always have taken care of her my whole life,” the comedian said of her mom. “So I just kept taking care of her. I didn’t really let it get to me. Until recently, I kind of went, ‘I wish I would have been better taken care of. I wish she would have believed me.’ And she’s apologetic, but, you know…”
Why is DeGeneres opening up now?
DeGeneres is sharing her story now in order to encourage girls who go through similar things to speak up.
“We [women] just don’t feel like we’re worthy, or we’re scared to have a voice, and we’re scared to say no,” she said. “That’s the only reason I think it’s important to talk about it because there’s so many young girls and it doesn’t matter how old you are. When I see people speaking out, especially now, it angers me when victims aren’t believed, because we just don’t make stuff up. And I like men, but there are so many men that get away with so much.”
Chris Brown, his body guard, and a friend were arrested by Paris police officers after a twenty-four year-old woman alleged that the singer raped her in his hotel room. If convicted he faces a fifteen year prison sentence.
The lawyer for a woman who filed a rape complaint in Paris against Chris Brown says the American rap artist "has thumbed his nose at and shown disrespect for the French legal system" after he did not attend a formal confrontation with the alleged victim.
Brown was arrested in Paris in January then released from custody without charges pending further investigation of the woman's allegations that he raped her at the French capital's Mandarin Oriental Hotel. The Grammy winner called the accusations false.
American lawyer Gloria Allred said Brown's "failure to appear today is very unfair to my client, but I assure him that my client will not be deterred from seeking justice."
But when he started as Khal Drogo on Season 1 of "Game of Thrones," the 39-year-old actor wasn't exactly a household name.
Momoa looked back at those days over the weekend, posting a throwback photo to Instagram that he said was from the days he and his friends were too "broke to fly home."
In the picture, a smiling Momoa, lying on air mattresses, looks out the back of a van "off the road some quiet parking lot in donegal."
"We rented a panel van aka UHAUL in Belfast and drove around beautiful amazing IRELAND searching for the greatest pint of Guinness. Turns out it’s perfect everywhere," the "Aquaman" star recalled. "So many wonderful people and stories I treasure those times It was the simplest moments I remember the most."

Review: 'Aquaman' hands Jason Momoa a fitfully goofy adventure we've seen before
Momoa made his splash as Aquaman in 2016's "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice," and followed that with "Justice League" before getting his own origin story.
"Aquaman 2" is planned for 2022.
In the meantime, Momoa promises there may be more throwback photos. He ended Sunday's post, "Ps ill ask Brian for more pics he’s got the gold. Aloha j."
We can't wait for the next wave.

Instagram trolls are accusing Khloé Kardashian of hooking up with Kourtney Kardashian's ex-boyfriend Scott Disick thanks to how close they look in her recent IG posts.
Khloé responded to several fan comments coming to her defense—check out her reaction below.
As anyone who watches Keeping Up with the Kardashians knows, Khloé Kardashian and Kourtney Kardashian's ex-boyfriend Scott Disick are close. Like, super-super-super close. And for those of you who think there might be something ~more~ going on between them, it is, in fact, possible for two humans to be just friends! Meaning that no, Khloé and Scott have not hooked up—something commenters on Khloé's birthday shoutout to The Lord don't seem to understand.
.
Fans are flooding Khloé's Instagram with musings on her close relationship with Scott, with comments ranging from "what is happening here? I sense chemistry" to "damn, why ya'll look so good together," to "refuse to believe they've never shagged."
This last musing had a few fans coming to Khloé's defense, and she responded not one but two commenters who stood up for her friendship with Scott. Koko dropped a few heart emojis in response to a fan who said "just because two people are close don’t mean they have shagged before." Plus, she dropped a kissy face emoji on a commenter who said she isn't the type of person to sleep with her sister's ex.
Peep the comments Khloé responded to in all their lengthy/extra glory:
