Nappy Days Are Here As New Dad Nicky Takes Break From Westlife - 1 June 2007By Melanie Finn Louis Walsh has given Nicky Byrne two months paternity leave so he can get to grips with his newfound fatherhood. The Westlife star — now proud dad of five-week-old twins Rocco and Jay — has swapped the stage for the life of domestic bliss. He’ll be playing the part of the dutiful husband and helping wife Georgina to care for their new babies at their Malahide home. “He has the months of June and July off as he’s not due to go back into the studio until August. That’s when the band will start recording their new album,” said a spokesperson. Nicky and his fitness trainer wife joined proud grandad Bertie Ahern last Sunday to show off the babies at a photocall in the Malahide Grand Hotel. No christening date has been set, but it’s expected to be some time in late summer. The tiny twins had spent the run-up to the General Election being cared for at the maternity hospital in Holles Street, since they were born there six weeks prematurely on April 20. They were kept in until they had gained enough weight to go home. Their parents had deliberately waited until after the election, which gave Bertie Ahern a historic third term in Government, before showing off their new babies. They ruled out doing any multimillion euro magazine deal and opted for having one photo session so the rest of the country could get a glimpse at the tiny arrivals. The night before they were born, Nicky was performing on stage at the Point Theatre but dashed to the hospital when he heard news about the births. Credit/Source: www.independent.ie

^ ^ Yep! I think all married male employees now are being given paternity leave according to the law, but not as long as 2 months. It's good Nicky got this break. I'm sure he's gonna enjoy the next 2 months with his family.
