The couple, who met on Strictly Come Dancing back in 2013, welcomed their adorable tot, whose full name is Maven Aria Riley Kovaleva, on 15 December, two weeks after her due date. Prior to her arrival, the couple eloped to Las Vegas in May last year, shortly after announcing that they were expecting a baby.
It seems these past few months in lockdown has been very meaningful to Rachel and Pasha. In a recent interview with The Sun, the mum-of-one opened up about how much she was enjoying lockdown as she talked about her mother-in-law staying with them. Although, Rachel was quick to acknowledge that many have been struggling during this period, saying: "It's one of those things where you feel slightly guilty for enjoying aspects of lockdown. We're in a really fortunate position."

"All of our work's gone but we're not having to struggle in that sense," she added. "Pasha would have been away with tours and cruises dancing had it not been for lockdown so he's enjoying time with us."
