"I never thought I'd fall in love with more than one girl.. now I'm in love with three! ❤❤❤” he gushed.
Awww ?
Here’s what the Humes family have been up to since Valentine’s arrival...
Rochelle's umbilical cord art
Rochelle took to her Instagram page to share a snap of her daughter’s framed umbilical cord, which was shaped to spell the word ‘love’.
It’s definitely a very unique memento from the birth, and we’re not surprised the stylish mum of 2 has cottoned on to this trend.
Unusual keepsakes like umbilical cord art (and even breastmilk jewellery) have been a bit of a thing for a while ?
It also seems Rochelle will be trying out placenta pills - a trend favoured by many celeb mums, including Kim Kardashian, Coleen Rooney and January Jones.
The pills contain dehydrated placenta (which is probs a bit easier than eating it raw) - but are still said to have all the nutrients.
The jury’s still out on whether or not these pills really deliver health-wise, but it seems Rochelle's up for giving them a go!
"After being very curious I took the plunge, so excited to feel the benefits..?? ? ” she added.
We can’t wait to hear how she gets on ?
Marvin's little footballer...
Marvin’s been pretty snap-happy since Valentina’s birth - even sharing a pic of him and his girls with his former JLS bandmates.
But one pic that really caught our eye was the nappy brand he snapped in an Instagram post - Chelsea FC!
“Just about to change Valentina's nappy... starting her off the right way!!! ? ?” he joked in the caption.
We have to admit, we didn’t really know that the top Premier League football club was in the nappy-making business.
But as any footie fan knows, you’ve got to start ‘em young! ?
