Angelina Jolie's doctor says her twins may take a few more weeks to arrive.

Obstetrician Dr Michel Sussmann spoke at a news conference in Nice, where Jolie has been admitted to hospital.

Asked when the actress is expected to have her twins, he replied saying he could not give an exact date, but confirmed that Jolie will give birth in the coming weeks

Asked when the actress is expected to have her twins, he replied saying he could not give an exact date, but confirmed that Jolie will give birth in the coming weeks.

Dr Sussmann stressed that Jolie checked into the hospital to be kept under observation, not because of any medical emergency.

"Miss Angelina Jolie and her husband, Mr Brad Pitt, told me to tell you that she is doing absolutely fine," said the doctor, apparently unaware that the stars are not married.

He said Jolie's hospitalisation at this stage in her pregnancy was totally normal for a patient who had a cesarean during her first pregnancy.

French medical secrecy laws are very strict, but Dr Sussmann said that the famous couple had given him the OK to give out a few details about her pregnancy.

The doctor denied some media reports that the whole fifth floor of the hospital had been given over to the Jolie-Pitt clan.

He said they had reserved just four rooms, for them and their bodyguards.
