SJP: 'Er, of course the twins are mine'

Uhm, okay.

Last month SJP was involved in a mysterious Twitter feud, lashing out at people making comments about her kids.

After much confusion, the actress has finally revealed what was going on.

She says 'relationship expect' Sarah Symonds had questioned whether she was actually the mother of her twin daughters, Marion and Tabitha.

In an issue of The Edit, Sarah went into detail about the incident.

“That was my worry before engaging in social media; I was afraid of it. I see mean stuff every day: when I look at Twitter I scroll with one eye open and one closed. That particular day, it was just one of the things I saw. I kept scrolling and then I was like, ‘Wait a minute, did she just say that?’ I went back and I thought, ‘Well, this isn’t unhealthy paranoia, this is absolutely conscious. This was a choice."

SJP adds: "She, not subtly at all, said that my children are not my children. There have been a few – let’s say half a dozen – times in my career when I have wanted to respond. I don’t want to encourage people picking on her, because that’s no better. But I wrote back, ‘What? Like, is this fun?’ She never responded and deleted it.”

The star says that although she should be used to this kind of thing by now, people are just finding 'new outlets to be unfriendly and cruel.'

How horrible! And good for you for taking her on!
