Hilary Swank has shared a rare photo of herself with one of her twins.
Swank, 50, took to social media to post a snap of herself cradling one of her one-year-old twins, Aya and Ohm, while on a return flight home from Fiji on Sunday, August 25.
The Million Dollar Baby star was photographed sitting in the plane’s cockpit alongside a pilot as she wrapped her arms around the child positioned on her lap.
“Surprise.. Amelia has been found!” Swank joked while captioning the Instagram post, referencing her 2009 film Amelia which charts the story of pioneering female aviatrix Amelia Earhart. “After 24 hours of travel with 2 babies who refuse to sleep on planes, we decided to take our final flight home into our own hands.”

The source added that Swank had “some help” with the twins but wanted to be as hands-on as possible. “She has a type A personality and wants to do everything herself,” the insider said at the time.
A second source told Us that having children shifted Swank’s priorities in life. “[It’s] transformed Hilary’s perspective on everything,” the insider said. “She used to be so focused on her career, now it’s all about her family.”
