I didn’t realize that “The Simpsons” creator Matt Groening has been mass producing children for the last several years. On Sunday Groening and his wife of 7 years, Agustina Picasso (no relation to the Pablo Picasso family) had their second set of twins together– named Venus Roth and Sol Matthew. That’s five kids altogether. Augustina is, of course, 23 years Groening’s junior at 41.

Groening has a reported net worth of $500 million thanks to 25 years of “The Simpsons” on Fox TV. He’s been critical of Fox and News Corp and the Murdochs in the show, but with other TV creators denouncing the network now, it will be interesting to see what he says about children in cages now that he has five with one woman, plus two older sons from his original marriage. (Those boys are now around 30 years old. One of them was named Homer at birth but goes by Will.)

Groening now joins that weird level of over 60 Hollywood guys with money procreating at rapid levels (see Alec Baldwin). They have the money for multiple nannies!
