Rochelle and Marvin Humes have just announced that they are expecting their third child together.
But how did it all start?
Rochelle, then Wiseman, was a fifth of the pop group The Saturdays when she caught the attention of JLS star Marvin.
They seemed to have met in 2010 and their paths began to intersect repeatedly at music industry awards and events.
And it didn’t take long for things to progress.
They got serious very quickly and by 2011 they were engaged.
They married the following year and were married at Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire on July 27, 2012.
Rochelle, 31, was a stunning bride, opting for a strapless fishtail dress designed by Vera Wang, and wearing her long brunette locks in loose waves.

Marvin, 35, looked elegant in his white tuxedo jacket, with a black vest and bow tie.
Rochelle and Marvin’s love story actually goes back to when she was just 16 and he was 20.
She confessed that they met when she was just a teenager, and her Saturday manager even tried to warn her not to date him.
But she ignored the advice when they embarked on their romance years later.
She said on The Jonathan Ross Show: “We actually met when I was younger, when I was probably 16 years old. None of that.

“A few years later, he was at JLS, I was on Saturdays. We were in a club, and they had brought all the bands together.”
It seems that Marvin had fallen in love with Rochelle and did not want to risk leaving the club without her phone number.
Rochelle continued: “I went to the bathroom and my bag was on the chair. She took my phone out of my bag, called from my phone and got my number.
“It’s strange. He laughed one last time because I married him, but it’s strange. In a creepy and restrictive way.”
Rochelle, who introduces the Ninja Warrior on ITV, says she had to secretly date Marvin at first, because her manager was concerned that the relationship could ruin her career.
She said, “We were doing really well at the time. I remember having this meeting with our A&R manager, and I remember him saying, ‘It’s going really well, it’s pretty difficult for girl bands because girls they have to like you and not be intimidated …
“‘The only thing you can do to ruin this is to date someone from a boy band. If any of you date JLS, then you’re screwed.’ We were secretly dating.”

Fortunately, it all worked out in the end, and in May 2013, they welcomed their first daughter, Alaia-Mai.
Her second daughter, Valentina Raine, arrived in March 2017.
Today, they announced that their third baby is on the way.
Rochelle shared the news on Instagram with an Easter-themed post, which included a baby scanner arranged alongside a small cardigan and booties and a sign saying “We are waiting for baby Humes October 2020.”

“There’s a baby bunny in my oven …” Rochelle captioned her post.
While the couple has always been open and honest about their relationship, only recently did they begin to share appropriate pictures of their girls.
Before, the photos they shared didn’t show their daughters’ faces, and after they started posting snapshots, fans were impressed by their home, they look a lot like their stunning mother.
Explaining her change of heart, Rochelle wrote: “Our girls
“I think it would be strange for me to post this without saying anything … but we have made the decision to share a little more about our family.”
“Alaia is privy to social media now (gulp) and often asks why her cousins and another family show up, but not her, and to be honest, we really don’t have the answer.
“Obviously, it came from a place of protection, perhaps because of a failure, let’s admit it, none of us really has this resolved.
“So here are our babies, they won’t be here often, but I thought you would like to meet them … Please be nice”
