Taking to social media to share a sweet video revealing the happy news, Oli left fans in a frenzy.
Oli has been married to Alissic, born Victoria Alissa Salles Silva, since 2017.
They met while she was working as a model for his Drop Dead Clothing collection.
In the video he shared, both Oli and Victoria could be seen sitting at their dining table with a box each in front of them.
Opening the boxes, they each got out a cupcake that would end up revealing the gender of their twins.
"Oh my god," Victoria said as she opened her box.
"Are you ready?" she asked Oli, to which he said: "Bite it, bite it."
Victoria took a bite and then revealed that there was pink sponge inside the first cupcake.
Oli declared: "We're having a baby girl!"
The rocker then opened his box and munched into his cupcake.

As Oli revealed the colour inside his cake, the pair both screamed loudly.
"Oh my god, no f**king way, no f**king way," Oli said as he turned the cupcake around so it was in view of the camera lens.
Showing off the blue sponge, it was revealed that the pair would be welcoming a baby daughter and a baby son.
Victoria then said: "This is crazy!"
What are the different types of twins?
TWINS are when two children are produced in the same pregnancy.
They can be identical or different, and two boys, two girls, or a girl and a boy.
Twins are quite rare, but are usually born completely healthy
What are the different types of twins?
Monozygotic – identical twins ('one cell' twins)
Dizygotic – also known as 'fraternal', non identical twins. Babies are no more alike than siblings born at separate times, and they can be the same or different sexes
Conjoined twins – identical twins that are joined together. They are extremely rare, and it's estimated they range from one in 49,000 to 189,000 births, although around half are stillborn, and one third die within 24 hours.
Can identical twins be two different sexes?
Identical twins are always of the same sex because they form from the same fertilised egg that contains either female or male chromosomes.
The single egg is divided into two separate embryos, and they occur in about three in every 1000 deliveries worldwide.
Therefore, boy/girl twins are always fraternal (or dizygotic), as their chromosomes are either XY (male) or XX (female).
What are Di Di twins?
Di Di stands for Dichronic Diamniotic, and they are the common type of twins.
They have their own amniotic sacs and placenta, so are just sharing the womb of the mother, and are therefore not identical.
There are few complications with Di Di twins, so have a good chance of being born completely healthy without intervention from your doctor.
Di di twins are more likely to be non-identical than identical.
Commenting on the post, one person said: "Congratulations to you both."
Another added: "This is the cutest thing I've ever seen CONGRATS."
"You hit the lottery omg twins and a boy n girl," penned a third.
A fourth then wrote: "OMG Oli is going to be a father! Did not expect the news of twins, but congrats to you both."
While a fifth said: "OMG I'M FOLLOWING HAPPINESS!!!!! PLEASE BE HEALTHY!!! Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!"
And a sixth added: "So exciting. Best feeling in the world."
Bring Me the Horizon are a British rock band.
They were formed in Sheffield more than 20 years ago in 2004.
The group currently consists of lead vocalist Oli, drummer Matt Nicholls, guitarist Lee Malia and bassist Matt Kean.

Olivia Bowen shows off her growing baby bump as she shares candid insight into final weeks of her pregnancy - ahead of welcoming daughter with husband Alex
Pregnant Olivia Bowen showed off her blossoming bump on Friday, just weeks ahead of welcoming her baby daughter. The Love Island star, 31, already shares son Abel, two, with husband Alex who she famously met in the ITV2 villa, took to her Instagram with a radiant selfie. Olivia displayed her bump in a casual bralette and joggers as she shared candid insight into her final weeks of pregnancy. She captioned the snap: 'She's so high now right up in my lungs'. Last month Olivia posted a sweet clip from her family of three as they enjoyed their last holiday before the birth. It looked like a truly relaxing trip, with the trio appearing to be spending the majority of their time at the beach. Oivia wrote: 'Another trip to Spain - the last one before baby girl comes, and next we'll return as a family of four to our own villa out here - never felt so lucky.' The stunner wore a colourful bikini for the beach trip, accessorising with a pair of dark sunglasses while her husband and son wore beige swimming trunks. In another snap with Alex, Olivia showed off more of her extensive summer wear collection, this time wearing a blue bralet that comfortably sat above her growing bump. The star kept it cool on the trip too, covering up with a black and white mesh sundress as she cuddled Alex and Abel on a lounger. Olivia announced that she was expecting in February of this year and has been keeping fans updated with her pregnancy. Sadly, it has not been smooth sailing for the family as Olivia was expecting twins, but sadly lost one of her babies eight weeks into her pregnancy. She made the revelation on Loose Women, where she recounted their tragic experience of vanishing twin syndrome. The couple were told they were having twins just before Christmas, when they attended an early six week scan. Olivia told the panel: 'We went super early, I'm quite an anxious person anyway. When we turned up, we had our friend in the back of the car because we thought everything would be normal. 'As soon as we sat down I saw two babies and not one, I was floored by that. I have twins in my family and as soon as we found out I was already nervous as we've not had a great history of twins in our family.' The Love Island star broke down in tears as she revealed: 'One of the babies just basically didn't have a heartbeat but I'd had no symptoms, no pain, no bleeding to tell me that was what we were walking into. We were floored, we were expecting to have these two little babies.' The star had experienced vanishing twin syndrome, which occurs when one twin passes away in the womb and 'vanishes' and studies suggest happens in roughly 36% of twin pregnancies. Olivia heartbreakingly revealed that 'the one beautiful part of it' is that the babies do 'absorb back into your body' and that's what the couple have been 'holding onto'. The reality star continued: 'The baby had completely absorbed into my body at 14 weeks, just completely gone which is tremendously sad knowing they're still in there. 'I am so lucky to have experienced that moment of possibly having twins, it's something that not everyone gets to feel so even having those two little babies at that time.' Alex then emotionally chimed in with: 'I built this scenario up in my mind, I was thinking of the future. 'I thought it was 100% happening and I had come to terms with it. I never really had a big family, I'm an only child and have no contact with my dad so it was an amazing thing for me.'

BTS is back - but K-pop has changed
"I missed them so much," says Stephanie Prado, a die-hard BTS fan who has been desperately waiting for the group to reunite after a two-and-a-half-year love for the boy band inspired her to move from Brazil to South Korea - so it was no surprise that she turned up last Friday for "BTS Festa", a big party held every year near Seoul on the group's time she has spent waiting, has moved "both slowly and really quickly", Stephanie says, waving an ARMY bomb, the official lightstick used by BTS fans, who call themselves the her is a huge sculpture of the lightstick, a must-have in the K-pop year's event is special because a reunion is finally around the corner. The countdown peaked last week, when four of the seven members, RM, V, Jimin and Jung Kook, completed their military service. And the wait ends on Saturday when the last of them, Suga, is discharged."I hope they rest now," Stephanie says, before adding, "but of course I also want albums, concerts, everything".The 18 months in the military that are mandatory for all South Korean men forced the world's most successful boy band in recent years to hit pause in 2022. Now they are returning, some say, to a K-pop industry that is quite different to the one they knew: faced with stalled album sales, shaken by scandals and increasingly scrutinised over the excessive pressure its puts on absence of a leading band, industry watchers say, was deeply felt."Without BTS, a core pillar was missing," says Kim Young-dae, music critic and author of BTS: The Review. "There have been concerns recently that K-pop is losing momentum. True or not, BTS could change that perception." The ARMY awaits There are no plans yet for all seven members to appear together, but that didn't stop the ARMY from gathering early on a humid morning in long, restless queue stretched to the subway station an hour before the gates for the BTS Festa opened. The snippets of English, Chinese, Japanese and Spanish alongside Korean, threw off a local walking past who asked, "Why are there so many foreigners here?" Inside were more queues - some people were hopping with excitement and others were sobbing after entering the so-called voice zone, a phone booth where you could listen to BTS members' messages. About half of the fans the BBC spoke to teared up talking about how much they missed BTS."It felt like the 18 months lasted forever," said Vuyo Matiwane, a South African who had been visiting BTS-themed venues in Seoul, like their favourite restaurant. "I was crying at every location - it was so emotional."And then she watched the livestream of them being discharged, which was "overwhelming".Being surrounded by all things BTS made a trip half-way across the world worth it, says Fara Ala, who travelled from the Netherlands: "Breathing the same air, drinking the same water, eating the same food as BTS - that's enough for ARMY. If you ask other ARMY, they'd say the same." South Korean military service is a major test for male celebrities, many of whom have to enlist at the peak of their success. In the past, it has proved fatal for some is believed to have staggered it so that all seven members were missing from action for no more than six months. J-Hope, who was discharged last October, has since wrapped up a solo world tour. But the so-called curse can be hard to break. For one, the loyalty of fans could wane as new groups debut almost every week, competing for their attention. Returning idols also face a tough transition because a military stint and a touch of maturity could dampen the essence of K-pop appeal: youthful if anyone can break the curse, it's BTS, Mr Kim of them announced solo projects in the past two and half years, he explains, without hurting their popularity as a group: "It feels like their military hiatus passed by naturally. Their return feels smooth." The shift in K-pop Still, the industry beyond the ARMY can pose a BTS was on a break, the other K-pop sensation, Blackpink, has not dropped an album since September 2022, opting instead for solo releases. These were the leaders of K-pop's third they have been succeeded by fourth and fifth generations that have brought fresh style to the genre. The newer acts - which debuted after 2018 - lack a standout name like BTS because K-pop has become more diverse than ever. The result is a range of very popular and experimental groups. "Most people my age like fourth generation idols these days," says a 13-year-old fan of girl group IVE."Some still like third generation groups, but for teens, BTS kind of feels like they belong to an older generation. A lot of new idols debuted while BTS was away, and they have become popular."But the biggest challenge to BTS's superstar status is what some see as a slowdown in from concerts remains strong, but album sales - a key market metric - have been declining since a peak in 2023. The slump coincides with when BTS and Blackpink were not releasing Korean pop culture critic Park Hee Ah agrees that K-pop went through "some difficult times" while BTS was have also been several controversies, such as the headline-making dispute between hit girl group NewJeans and their agency, allegations of mistreatment by all-powerful agencies and harassment of stars by fans and trolls."Album sales started to drop, and some problems - like questions about companies doing the right thing - came up," Ms Park said. Because of all of this, she adds, we did see more "deeper problems in the K-pop industry". That's also why so many are looking forward to BTS's return, hoping it will bring renewed energy - and maybe even a path forward for the industry."Their return will help people focus on Korea's music scene again," Ms Park says, adding that a BTS reunion is great not just for their fans but also for Korean soft eyes are now on the band's next song. "I will quickly make an album and return to the stage," RM, the group's leader, said on the day he was a new group album may not come until early next year because J-Hope still has domestic concerts scheduled, and Jin is set to hold concerts for fans across the world over the next few months. It's also possible Suga, who landed in controversy after he was caught drunk-driving a scooter last year, may want to lie low for a little millions of fans like Stephanie though, simply knowing BTS is back together is enough - for now."It'll feel like nothing ever changed. The kings are back."

EXCLUSIVE Living Nostradamus predicts Jordon Hudson and Bill Belichick's relationship will be over within TWO YEARS
A psychic who has successfully predicted numerous world events has made a serious projection about the future of Bill Belichick 's relationship with Jordon Hudson - and their alleged engagement. Belichick, 73, has been dating Hudson, 24, since 2023, but their relationship has made headlines in recent months - especially after she steamrolled his interview on CBS Sunday Morning in April. She caused shockwaves throughout America after she pushed back on a question that journalist Tony Dokoupil had asked the former New England Patriot's coach while they were talking about his new book. Dokoupil asked him how the two met, to which Hudson sharply replied, 'We're not talking about that.' Adding to the drama, a shocking report from the New York Times last month claimed that Hudson had told 'at least one person' that she is engaged to be married to Belichick. Their relationship seems to be going strong - for now, at least - as psychic Athos Salomé, 38, from Brazil, issued a stark warning for the pair. Salomé, who is often referred to as the 'Living Nostradamus,' told the Daily Mail that he believes their romance won't make it past 2027. He is called the 'Living Nostradamus' due to his numerous accurate predictions - including his forecasting of the coronavirus pandemic, Queen Elizabeth II's death and the Microsoft global outage. Salomé told the Daily Mail exclusively that he foresees their relationship 'consisting of three distinct phases, peaking in 2026, and gradually dissolving by 2027.' 'There will be no explosive breakup. The bond will quietly fade away, like a spiritual contract that has run its course,' the clairvoyant claimed. He also said he doesn't see the two of them ever making it down the aisle, noting that he predicts a 'formal marriage' will not occur. They will not have children together, either, per the psychic. Salomé said he believes what 'unites' the couple together right now is a 'vibrational pact,' adding, 'Jordon seeks learning and projection; Belichick, emotional rejuvenation.' But what about that 'engagement' ring? 'There is a symbolic commitment between them, perhaps materialized by a ring, but without any intention of public consecration,' Salomé claimed. 'It is an energetic exchange, not a traditional union.' 'They are temporary karmic companions,' he claimed. 'They are together to learn, not to stay. It is a reflection, not a fusion. Functional, but not spiritual.' However, as of right now, it looks like Hudson is still scouting out some potential wedding locales. She's following multiple wedding-related Instagram accounts from her public-facing page, @jordon. According to screenshots obtained by Hudson is following the Instagram account for The Breakers Hotel weddings in Palm Beach, Florida, as well as Boston Weddings by Boston Magazine, a page that shares the 'ultimate guide to New England celebrations.' The Breakers Hotel, a luxury resort near Mar-a-Lago that can cost thousands of dollars per night during peak snowbird season, offers a venue that can fit up to 500 people. The hotel's Instagram account for weddings showcases the various events that they throw, sharing pictures of brides' dresses, catering, and decorations. It's a luxe getaway that hosted the 2015 wedding of Sofia Vergara and Joe Manganiello. The hotspot has multiple locations on its property where you can tie the knot, too, including its Ocean Lawn overlooking the Atlantic, or its 6,100 square foot Mediterranean Ballroom, which was modeled after the 'loggias of Italian villas.' However, you can't get married there without spending a pretty penny. Per Party Slate, a minimum wedding spend at The Breakers is $50,000. Vergara's wedding at the locale reportedly cost $4 million. It's unclear if this is the venue that Hudson and Belichick will choose for their alleged upcoming nuptials, but it certainly seems like the bride-to-be is looking into it - or at least taking some inspiration from the opulent hotel. Belichick owns a condo in Jupiter, Florida, per People - only a mere few miles away from the Palm Beach hotel. Speculation about the couple's relationship has been rife for months, ever since Daily Mail exclusively photographed Hudson at a New Orleans dinner during Super Bowl week with a rock on her left finger. The coach also notably changed his boat's name from 'VIII Rings' to 'I + VIII Rings.' Belichick has won eight Super Bowls as a defensive coordinator and head coach in New York and New England, respectively).
