Jane Seymour, 72, shows off twin sons she gave birth to aged 44 – “handsome men”

Jane Seymour is a name synonymous with grace, talent, and timeless beauty in the world of entertainment. Renowned for her versatile acting career, the 72-year-old has graced the screens with her exceptional performances for decades.

Though, aside from being a Hollywood icon, Seymour is also an author and a dedicated mother.

In fact, she has navigated the challenges and joys of motherhood, including the unique experience of raising twin sons.

Seymour, who has been married and divorced four times, is the proud mother of Katherine, 41, and Sean Flynn, 38, from her marriage to David Flynn. She also shares her twin sons, John Stacy and Kristopher Steven, 27, from her marriage to filmmaker James Keach.

Journey to motherhood

Seymour’s journey to motherhood had many hurdles, with the actress candidly sharing to People that in-vitro fertilization led to two miscarriages, nearly causing her and her then-husband, Keach, to abandon their hopes. However, her third pregnancy, aged 44, proved to be a success, resulting in the birth of her twin sons, John and Kristopher.

The boys were premature, born six weeks early via an emergency C-section due to pre-eclampsia. Given this, the twins faced challenges from the very start. The pregnancy and birth were fraught with risk, and Seymour and the twins narrowly escaped a tragic outcome. She revealed in an interview with Loose Women: “I nearly died having them, and the babies nearly died.”
