Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O'Connell are following in Brangelina's footsteps.

Romijn, 35, and O'Connell, 34, are expecting twins this winter, a spokesman for the couple confirmed for Us Weekly on Monday.

The babies will be the first children for the pair.

Romijn and O'Connell met at a party in 2004; he proposed a year later. They got married in an intimate ceremony in Los Angeles in July 2007.

A source close to the actor tells Us, "Jerry couldn’t be happier about becoming a dad.”

Earlier this month, O'Connell told Us that they had been trying to have kids.

"It would be amazing if it happened," he said at the Much Love Animal Rescue's "Bow Wow WOW!" event in L.A. July 19. "I hope it does happen."

He joked that the conception process had been "a lot fun for me," adding that they go at it "at least a few days a month!"

Asked about the secret to a happy marriage, O'Connell told Us, "We have a lot of fun together. I really enjoy being with her. I think Rebecca really enjoys being with me."

O'Connell will star in the new Fox sitcom "Do Not Disturb" (premiering this fall). Romijn will star in the drama "Lake City" (due in November) and will return for a handful of episodes of ABC's "Ugly Betty" in the fall.

Romijn was previously married to John Stamos. They divorced in 2005.

O'Connell's screen credits include "Stand by Me" and "Jerry Maguire."
