And while she and Brandon are savoring all the major moments with their little ones, the twins are also celebrating themselves. “They love high fiving themselves in the mirror,” Gabourey said. “They’re so goofy. I love them.”
“My son is like a chaotic cannonball,” she added, “and my daughter is much more methodical. She stands up, she gets her balance, and then she takes a walk. But my son launches himself, like, dives everywhere.”
But while the twin bond is strong, it took a moment to get there.
“They don’t even notice that there’s another baby there,” Gabourey explained. “But my daughter noticed my son at 2 months, and at 3 months, they started holding hands every time they were near each other. And so their bond started really, really quickly, which is really, really beautiful to watch.”
And while she’s marking her little ones’ milestones, this year she reached her own professional milestone: Her first time playing a mom as one IRL. And she was thrilled to dive into the experience in Give Me Back My Daughter.
