'Jwan, I don't see you but my husband Jwan, I love you, my beautiful twins, Valentino and Matteo, they're also here, I love you with all my heart, you're my strength, you inspire me every day, you motivate me to keep doing what I'm doing and you guys are amazing kids. You guys are amazing. I love you.' 

He continued: 'Lucia, my baby girl who is not here with us, she stayed at home with Grandma, but she's also the light of my life.' 

And by the way, I have to announce that we are pregnant. We are waiting,' he added, as the crowd erupted in cheers.

'Alright! I love big families,' he finished off.
