J-Lo splashes out cool £700,000 on giving birth to twins

For Jennifer Lopez money was no object when it came to giving birth: the star spent a cool $1.4 million (£700,000) for the arrival of her baby twins.

Jennifer gave birth to fraternal twins on 22 February at New York's North shore University Hospital. The 38-year-old and her husband Marc Anthony splashed out $700,00 (£350,000) to reserve a lavish birthing suite at the hospital, in preparation for the new arrivals.

The suite featured white sofas, a Mac computer, private kitchen and two flat-screen TVs.

The new parents spent a further $300,000 (£150,000) on private doctors and nurses, $300,000 (£150,000) on security and $100,000 (£50,000) on personal assistants in the lead-up to the big day.

However, the singer and actress needn't worry about her bank balance as the sale of her exclusive baby pictures reached a staggering $6 million (£3 million).
