The pictures, which were taken by photographer Oly Barnsley, see the happy couple dote on their new bundle of joy, who was two months old at the time.
"Just before lockdown we managed to book in a new family photo shoot we'd bought in an auction for adolescent HIV/AIDS charity @grassrootsoccer back when Mave was still a bump in November," explained Rachel.

Since becoming parents for the first time in December, both Rachel and Pasha have been relishing every moment with their little girl. The couple started dating in 2014 after they were partnered together in the 2013 series of Strictly Come Dancing.

During a recent Q&A, former Strictly professional Pasha, 40, revealed how much his baby girl enjoys dancing. Asked how he spent his time in lockdown, Pasha told Jewish youth organisation JLGB: "I'm trying to dance with my daughter at the moment, she laughs and screams all the time – she absolutely loves it."
The pro dancer, who left the BBC show in 2019 after eight years, confessed Maven could well follow in his famous footsteps rather than her mother's - time will only tell! "She might become a dancer eventually," he teased. "I don't know but I'm not going to push her. We dance a little around [the house] and it's a lot of fun."
