Angelina Jolie's Father 'Excited' About Meeting Twins

Angelina Jolie’s father Jon Voight is looking forward to becoming a grandfather again after the pair took steps towards healing their longterm rift.

The heavily pregnant actress recently revealed she was back in contact with her dad, six years after she severed ties when he told a TV interview she had "severe emotional problems".

And Voight can't wait to embrace the twins Jolie is expecting with partner Brad Pitt.

He says, "The babies haven't come yet but am I looking forward to it, yes I am. Right now I just want those babies to be healthy and for the mommy to be healthy. When they come I'm going to be so excited."

And Voight has every confidence that his superstar daughter can cope with the trials of raising twin babies, "Twins are a definite handful.

"It's a huge deal. You've just got two kids and if one starts crying then you starting taking that one and then the other one - oh boy, you have to be young and strong to take care of twins.

"But Angie can handle it."
