Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie left hospital in the South of France yesterday – a week after giving birth to twins.

In a statement, the Fondation Lenval confirmed Angelina had been discharged with her new son and daughter, adding: ‘The mother and her babies are doing very well.’

It was not clear whether the twins’ father Brad Pitt, 44, left with them.

Doing well: Angelina Jolie and her twins are in good health, but she and Brad are looking for a helper

Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline are the latest addition to the ‘Brangelina’ brand – bringing to six the celebrity couple’s number of offspring.

Angelina, 33, checked into the clinic near Nice on July 2 where the babies were delivered by Caesarean section ten days later.

The twins were born one minute apart with Brad by Angelina’s side.

Knox Leon weighed 5lb 3oz and his sister Vivienne Marcheline 5lb.

The couple are now trying to sell pictures of the twins to the highest bidder for charity and are searching for a nanny.
