Ray J and Princess Love steal hearts with first pictures of newborn daughter

Ray J and Princess Love got all glammed up for their first photoshoot with their newborn daughter Melody.

Last Wednesday, May 23, Melody Love Norwood was born at 2:52pm. Weighing exactly 7 punds and was measured 19 and a quarter inches long at birth, it was love at first sight for her parents when they held her in their arms.

Right when Princess was about to give birth, Ray J shared an adorable touching video of their pregnancy journey that has led to that day.

Exactly a week later, the happy family posed while carrying a serene and peaceful sleeping baby girl. In the newly released photographs, the adorable baby is seen cuddling up to her dad Ray J, 37, and mom Princess Love, 33, inside their Beverly Hills home.

Prior to giving birth to Melody last Wednesday, Princess was in labor for over 24 hours before she finally gave birth to her first born child.

Ray J looks absolutely smitten, giving his beautiful baby a whole lot of kisses and cuddles during their photoshoot.

"I just wanna say to you @princesslove I LOVE YOU! im so Proud. This has been life Changing for me. To watch you go thru all of this for us to have this beautiful Ángel!

The proud parents have been gushing on their social media accounts about how they have waited for this moment for quite a while. Both Ray J and Princess Love have been sharing bits and pieces of their pregnancy journey, and showing appreciation to each other.

Ray J, 37, and Princess Love, 33, tied the knot in 2016 after their on-and-off relationship on the reality TV series "Love & Hip-Hop: Hollywood" since 2014. Now that they have welcomed their baby girl into their lives, the two have shifted perspective and are now working towards being the best parents.
