Hollywood's top female star, Julia Roberts, has returned home from hospital with her twins following a health scare involving one of the premature tots.
The Pretty Woman star, named Hollywood's top-earning actress by the Hollywood Reporter because of her US$20 million ($28.4 million)-a-picture asking price, went home on Saturday, People
magazine said.
The 37-year-old Oscar-winner and her twins, a boy called Phinnaeus Walter Moder and a girl named Hazel Patricia Moder, were born more than one month early on November 28.
The magazine said that Hazel, who weighed slightly less than her brother, was initially kept in an incubator following her birth. But "she's doing just fine" now, People quoted a family friend as saying.
The pair, Robert's first children with her husband cameraman Danny Moder, was closely monitored by doctors after coming in with a birth weight of just 2.2kg.
Roberts was taken to hospital on October 23 and placed on a foetal monitor after she began having early contractions more than two months before her January due date. But Roberts told USA Today in an interview just before the birth that despite the scare, her pregnancy had not come complete with some of the more common miseries expectant mothers face.
"Never got sick," she said. "I've heard horror stories about people who have a sip of water and then throw up for four hours. But I come from hardy stock. I'm Southern," she told the paper.
