The picture shows the trio wrapped up warmly against the cold, with Rachel bundled up in a raspberry beanie and a pink coat, and Pasha in a gray hat and black coat.

"They have a huge table of celebration food," she shared. "We've introduced Mave to some Russian food and she loves it so far – and we're vegan as well so we do the vegan version of mixed salads with beetroot and carrots and tofu."

Rachel continued: "It's not too different from what we do at Christmas, it's just different food on a different day. We’ve kind of got Christmas Day and then the Russian New Years – so she's got a bit of everything."
Rachel and Pasha tied the knot in Vegas in June 2019
Rachel secretly tied the knot with Pasha, 40, in Las Vegas in June 2019, six months before they became first-time parents. There's no denying how much the new parents have been relishing every moment with their baby girl.
"It's been gorgeous," gushed Rachel, when asked how it's been watching Pasha become a father. "My friends always said when you love someone and you see them with a child… he is just amazing with her.
"He's better with her than with me, I've got the secret weapon of boobs and he has to actually learn proper parenting. She loves him, he loves her. Even when looking at a picture of her, his face just lights up - it's gorgeous."
