ROCHELLE Humes made the switch from music to morning television following The Saturdays split.
Here’s the lowdown on the singer and TV presenter, who is married to Soccer Aid star Marvin Humes.
Who is Rochelle Humes?
Rochelle is a 30-year-old singer and television presenter, originally from Barking, England.
Born Rochelle Wiseman, she has been married to JLS singer Marvin Humes since 2012.
She started her pop career in the S Club 7 spin-off group, S Club Juniors in 2001.
Her parents divorced when she was three-years-old and she was raised by her mother and her uncle, English football manager Paul Ince.
The star has two sisters who share an uncanny resemblance to her.
How long has Rochelle been married to Marvin Humes and how many children do they have?
Rochelle and Marvin began dating in March 2010 and moved in together three months later.
Marvin proposed to Rochelle on the Caribbean island of Antigua on New Year’s Eve in 2011.
The couple then married in a lavish ceremony at Blenheim Palace in 2012.
They have two daughters, Alaia-Mai (born May 20, 2013) and Valentina Raine (born March 10, 2017).
After the birth of Valentina, Rochelle announced that she would be trying the latest health fad of eating her placenta in pill form.
She also had the umbilical cord shaped into the word “love” and framed.
What happened to The Saturdays?
Rochelle joined S Club 8 when she was just 12.
She later formed a new group with her old bandmate Frankie Bridge and became The Saturdays.
Created in 2007, they released their debut single If This Is Love a year later.
The other girls that made up the group were Una Healy, Mollie King and Vanessa White.
Over the course of the next seven years, The Saturdays had thirteen top ten singles – including Missing You, Ego, Higher, Notorious, Issues and All Fired Up.
Their debut album Chasing Lights reached platinum status and they hit the top of the charts with What About Us, a collaboration with Sean Paul.
The band went on a hiatus in 2014, and despite Frankie saying the group would reform by 2016, a reunion looks unlikely now.
Band member Vanessa White has quit the band forever and both Una Healy and Mollie King are seeking solo pop career success.
Rochelle revealed that while she was a member of The Saturdays she was ordered to lose weight by one of their management team.
