"Chely Wright and her wife Lauren Blitzer-Wright have welcomed twins. The country music star and her partner welcomed identical sons on Saturday (May 18) in New York City, despite the fact the birth was not scheduled until later in the summer.  Chely told People of her sons&amp;#039; early arrival: &amp;quot;We are grateful for all the amazing medical care and the love and support of family and friends.&amp;quot; The couple have chosen to name their boys George Samuel and Everett Joseph after their great-grandfathers. Lauren and Chely announced that they were expecting twins in January while appearing on Howard Bragman&amp;#039;s chatshow.

The Wrights were married in August 2011 in Connecticut. Watch the video for Chely Wright&amp;#039;s hit &amp;#039;Shut Up and Drive&amp;#039; below:      "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
