The perfume magnate is known to have a big family, with three sets of twins. The first two were fraternal twins, Prince Sean and Princess Synne, born on Sept. 2, 2012. They were then followed by Prince Harry and Prince Harvey on October 23, 2015, and Charles and Charlotte on May 24, 2017.

In one clip, all kids were present in their dad’s office to give their best performance of the famous children’s song “Baby Shark.”

The scent mogul revealed to the Philippine Entertainment Portal that Zeid was supposed to be a twin. He said: “Supposed to be kambal din sana gusto ko kaso hindi kumapit yung isa at isa lang yung nabuo (Supposed to be  twins, which I wished, but the other one did not hold and only one was formed).”

All his older children have the same biological mother, a Russian native named Lilia. Cruz revealed that the first set of twins were carried by her, while the second and third sets were born through a surrogate named Olesia.  /ra
