They've done their best to keep daughter Alaia-Mai out of the spotlight since her birth on May 20th.
But now Rochelle and Marvin Humes have finally shared a picture of their little girl on Twitter.
Admitting they had been somewhat 'over protective' since their daughter's birth, the pair are seen sitting proudly alongside Alaia-Mai in an adorable picture.
Our little princess! Marvin Humes posted a shot of himself and wife Rochelle with their daughter Alaia-Mai on his Instagram page
Marvin captioned the shot: 'We know you guys have been wanting to see a picture of our little Princess. Mummy and Daddy are very over protective but here's a precious picture, she's a little camera shy x'
In the image, the three-week-old tot is seen looking super-cute in a white dress with diamond bow detail, with Rochelle clutching little girl's hand with one arm, and with the other wrapped around Marvin.
Protective Marvin is seen holding up Alaia-Mai's head, tweeting fans that their daughter is a little 'camera shy'.
In need of sleep: Rochelle looked rather tired when she stepped out last week with Marvin and Alaia-Mai
The family portait comes after Rochelle and Marvin stepped out with their daughter last week.
While the Saturdays singer Rochelle looked sleepin for the outing, she looked in great shape and happy as doting father Marvin followed behind with their daughter in his arms.
Dressed in a pink and black shirt dress the 24-year-old showed off her already slimmed down legs.
Her long dark hair looked un-styled as it fell to one side of her shoulder, while she went make-up free letting her natural beauty do the talking.
Delighted: The great looking couple looked very happy with their family unit
Back to work: It seems Rochelle was heading back to rehearsals with her The Saturday's bandmates
She carried a large black bag, which no doubt contained all the baby items she might need as Marvin carefully carried their daughter, who was dressed in white, tenderly in his arms.
Like his wife he went for a similar colour, opting for a baby pink hue, perhaps as a tribute to his little girl, with a pair of chinos.
Rochelle has told friends she plans to start working out soon but at present has been focusing all her attention on her baby.
Matching: Rochelle and Marvin looked very in tune with each other wearing similar shades of pink
Bounced back: Rochelle didn't seem to have any sign of extra baby weight on her
A source told Closer Magazine: 'Rochelle is blissfully happy. She says it's the hardest job in the world - she's up every two hours in the night. She's both breastfeeding and bottle feeding and Marvin is hand-on and makes sure she gets some rest.
'He's head over heels in love with Alaia-Mai but he's also careful to make Rochelle feel special.'
Rochelle was reportedly leaving a rehearsal studio after meeting up with the rest of her band which, if she is back to work already, would explain why she showed the signs of a few sleepless nights.
She famously worked right up to giving birth and by the looks of it she’s gearing up to get back to work quickly and plans to start working on getting her pre-baby shape back in a few weeks.
'Rochelle is focusing on being a mum. She's already lost a stone and say's she's got another stone to lose to get back to her usual size 10, but she's in no rush.'
Natural: Marvin looked very at ease carrying his daughter out of the venue
Careful: Marvin showed how attentive he is while cradling Alaia-Mai
Marvin, 28, currently has a fair amount of free time on his hands after JLS decided to go their separate ways, has been a constant presence as he accompanied his wife with their daughter as they left home.
The Capital FM DJ opened up about becoming a father when he appeared at the Capital Summertime Ball in London at the weekend.
He has said: ‘It's just the most beautiful feeling, you can’t put into words how incredible it is and how it just fills you with such a lovely feeling. We’re both very, very lucky.’
Covered: The couple seemed keen for their little girl not to be seen as they got in the car
Marvin also shed some light on the fatigue caused by having a newborn about: ‘I’m tired but you know I’m still working.
'Rochelle is doing the most incredible job, she wants to get back to work soon, obviously she’s not here today but The Saturdays are and I’m here.’
The new father continued: ‘It is weird, and she really wanted to come, but she’s still recovering and she’s doing great but she’ll be back to work soon. [She'll be back] definitely next month, for sure.’
And even though she couldn't be there Rochelle tweeted: 'Good luck to @TheSaturdays and @MarvinHumes performing @ the @CapitalOfficial Summer time ball. Love u lots xxxxxx'
Team work: The pair have already worked out how to be a team when it comes to parenting
