The couple shared the deets at the “True Blood†Season 6 premiere Tuesday night at the Cinerama Dome in Hollywood. Moyer, 43, referred to the twins by name when asked about if he was planning to spend Father’s Day with his daughter Lilac, 10, who he had in a previous relationship.

He said that she would be spending the paternal holiday at camp, and that he and Paquin would be “hanging out with Charlie and Poppy.â€

However, Paquin, 30, wouldn’t tell E!’s Marc Malkin what their plans were.

“I can’t tell you because that would ruin the surprise,†she laughed before adding, “I don’t know about [it being a] big surprise, but yes, there are plans.â€

“The babies were born a few weeks early, but are in good health and both Mom and Dad are overjoyed,†their rep said when the twins were born.

“They came much earlier than we were expecting. They were so fragile in the beginning. We are just trying to protect them,†Moyer told People.

“[We’re] trying to give them as much of a normal upbringing as you can in this town. They didn’t choose to be actors -- not yet! Who knows what they’ll be? It’s just a question of wanting to keep that private for them so they can choose.â€

“True Blood†is set to return on HBO on Sunday.
