Bolt revealed the news on Instagram with a Father’s Day family photo, showing a lightning-bolt emoji next to each of his children’s names in the caption, without stating when the twins were born.

Bennett also posted an Instagram photo of the couple posing with the twins and daughter Olympia Lightning Bolt.

Olympia Lightning was born in May last year but her name was only announced two months later.

The 34-year-old Bolt, who won eight gold medals at the 2008, 2012 and 2016 Games, will not be competing at the Covid-delayed Tokyo Olympics next month as he retired in 2017.

The fastest man in history, Bolt holds the world records for 100m and 200m, and is the only sprinter to win the 100m and 200m double at three consecutive Games.

Bolt, who won 23 major championship golds in a glittering career, tried to turn to professional football after his track career ended. But he failed to secure a contract and retired from all sports in 2019.
