Chris brought out the news he and his wife were expecting twins back in July. At that time, the rocker stated, "Big news - Deanna and I are having a boy and a girl. We're very excited about that. We do have names picked out but we're going to keep them to ourselves until further notice." He and Deanna are already parents to son Griffin and daughter Hannah.
