Taking to social media to share a sweet video revealing the happy news, Oli left fans in a frenzy.
Oli has been married to Alissic, born Victoria Alissa Salles Silva, since 2017.
They met while she was working as a model for his Drop Dead Clothing collection.
In the video he shared, both Oli and Victoria could be seen sitting at their dining table with a box each in front of them.
Opening the boxes, they each got out a cupcake that would end up revealing the gender of their twins.
“Oh my god,” Victoria said as she opened her box.
“Are you ready?” she asked Oli, to which he said: “Bite it, bite it.”
Victoria took a bite and then revealed that there was pink sponge inside the first cupcake.
Oli declared: “We’re having a baby girl!”
The rocker then opened his box and munched into his cupcake.
As Oli revealed the colour inside his cake, the pair both screamed loudly.
“Oh my god, no f**king way, no f**king way,” Oli said as he turned the cupcake around so it was in view of the camera lens.
Showing off the blue sponge, it was revealed that the pair would be welcoming a baby daughter and a baby son.
Victoria then said: “This is crazy!”
What are the different types of twins?
TWINS are when two children are produced in the same pregnancy.
They can be identical or different, and two boys, two girls, or a girl and a boy.
Twins are quite rare, but are usually born completely healthy
What are the different types of twins?
Monozygotic – identical twins (‘one cell’ twins)
Dizygotic – also known as ‘fraternal’, non identical twins. Babies are no more alike than siblings born at separate times, and they can be the same or different sexes
Conjoined twins – identical twins that are joined together. They are extremely rare, and it’s estimated they range from one in 49,000 to 189,000 births, although around half are stillborn, and one third die within 24 hours.
Can identical twins be two different sexes?
Identical twins are always of the same sex because they form from the same fertilised egg that contains either female or male chromosomes.
The single egg is divided into two separate embryos, and they occur in about three in every 1000 deliveries worldwide.
Therefore, boy/girl twins are always fraternal (or dizygotic), as their chromosomes are either XY (male) or XX (female).
What are Di Di twins?
Di Di stands for Dichronic Diamniotic, and they are the common type of twins.
They have their own amniotic sacs and placenta, so are just sharing the womb of the mother, and are therefore not identical.
There are few complications with Di Di twins, so have a good chance of being born completely healthy without intervention from your doctor.
Di di twins are more likely to be non-identical than identical.
Commenting on the post, one person said: “Congratulations to you both.”
Another added: “This is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen CONGRATS.”
“You hit the lottery omg twins and a boy n girl,” penned a third.
A fourth then wrote: “OMG Oli is going to be a father! Did not expect the news of twins, but congrats to you both.”
While a fifth said: “OMG I’M FOLLOWING HAPPINESS!!!!! PLEASE BE HEALTHY!!! Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!”
And a sixth added: “So exciting. Best feeling in the world.”
Bring Me the Horizon are a British rock band.
They were formed in Sheffield more than 20 years ago in 2004.
The group currently consists of lead vocalist Oli, drummer Matt Nicholls, guitarist Lee Malia and bassist Matt Kean.
