Rochelle Humes addresses having more children after being left 'humbled' while solo parenting

Rochelle Humes has been asked if she wants any more children, a day after she joked she had been 'humbled' during a parenting moment without her husband Marvin Humes. The loved-up couple share three children together, nine-year-old Alaia-Mai, Valentina, six, and two-year-old son Blake Hampton.

During a Q&A with her loyal Instagram followers, Rochelle was asked about her children, and whether she'd want to expand her beautiful brood. "Are you going to have any more cute babies," the presenter was asked.

"Our hands definitely feel very full..." Rochelle started her reply. "So I think we are pretty much retired... But then I look at this picture and..." she added alongside a string of melting face emojis as she shared a picture from when Blake was first born, surrounded by his doting older sisters.

It comes after the 33-year-old was left reaching for the chocolate after being left to solo parent. She took to her Instagram Story with a picture of a pile of cut-out pieces of card with different mathematical sums and equations on. "Marvin is away working and as much as I hate to admit it this is where I let myself down as a parent..." Rochelle honestly told her fans.

"This is NOT my strong suit," she then confessed. Sharing a follow-up post, Rochelle shared how she had enlisted the help of some family members. "But that's what God brothers and sisters are for..." the mum-of-three said over the image which showed an iPad with some additional help. "Auntie is SO grateful for you @finleyskyfrancis @marleyblu_francis."

She then shared a picture of a partially eaten bar of chocolate as she added: "Well tonight has been very humbling... I'm getting myself a maths tutor... no joke!!! If anyone has any recommendations, hook a gurl up."

It comes after Rochelle admitted that she and Marvin, 34, had dropped a 'boo boo' when it came to their daughter's sixth birthday last week. They took to social media last Friday (March 10) to share sweet tributes to the second-born as she celebrated her special day.

Taking to Instagram the night before Valle's birthday, Rochelle, who also share two other children together, nine-year-old daughter Alaia-Mai, and two-year-old son Blake Hampton with JLS star Marvin, gave her 2.2m Instagram followers a glimpse at how they were preparing.

The first image posted to her Instagram showed a bag full of clear balloons and a cardboard box containing a personalised ‘Valle’ cutout with her age on it. "My baby girl is 6 tomorrow," Rochelle captioned the pic accompanied by a crying face emoji. "My girl @houseofballoons_xx has come over to help me get everything ready whilst she’s at school,” she added.

The next post showed everything set up with a section of Rochelle and Marvin's plush, all-white home filled with pastel-coloured balloons and a giant cardboard cut-out ready to celebrate their daughter's big day. "Can you cope with how cute this is?" Rochelle, 33, asked before sharing the cute reason behind the design.

"So Valle’s nickname is bubbles because that’s what her little brother decided she was called. Never Valle, only Bubble,” she said, referring to the bubble balloons. "And she’s obsessed with pastel colours, so this is what House of Balloons and Parties and Signs helped me come up with."

The doting mum added: "It’s the cutest thing in the world and I hope Blake never stops calling her Bubble because it’s now just her name." And on Friday morning, Rochelle returned to Instagram to share her daughter's sweet reaction to the display. Posting a series of pics to her story, Valentina looked thrilled with the start of her birthday celebrations.

Later, This Morning regular Rochelle was keen to show off the big birthday present they got for Valentina - and there's an emphasis on the word big. "So we asked Valle wanted she wanted for her birthday and she said a gymnastics air track," Rochelle could be heard saying as she filmed the air track in the open-plan room which boasts a pink neon sign which reads: "Drunk in Love," likely in a nod to the hit Beyonce track.

"Now we have a... This is normally a Rochelle Humes boo boo but Marvin Humes was very present with this one," Rochelle continued with a laugh. "this is the air track that arrived. Literally, all she wanted was an air track for gymnastics and fidgets. I'm sick of fidgets so this felt like a really productive present.

"You know, she does gymnastics, she does cheerleading and all the kids will use this. We have hard floors everywhere, it makes perfect sense to practice. However, did I realise it was going to be this size? No I didn't. I completely underestimated how big an air track is. I have just come down to do my pilates but there's no space for me. So I'll be doing my class today, with Bryony [Deery], on an air track."
