"If you asked us four years ago if we had a billion dollar company, I don't think we would have said yes," George said via email. "This reflects Diageo's belief in our company and our belief in Diageo. But we're not going anywhere. We'll still be very much a part of Casamigos. Starting with a shot tonight. Maybe two."

The new dad and Cindy Crawford's husband founded the liquor brand in 2013. Back in November, Rande opened up about his company, which translates to "house of friends," saying, "it immediately took off," adding at the time, "right now, we're the fastest growing ultra-premium tequila in the country." Following the birth of the George's twins, the tequila company posted a video of Rande pushing a dolley pamper boxes and cases of tequila, which was captioned "Special delivery."
