Paolo and Samantha Valenciano finally posted photos of Nataleia Martine (you can call her Leia) and we couldn’t help but gush. This little one is cute beyond words and she now has her own Instagram account.

Paolo and Samantha Valenciano welcomed their baby girl Nataleia Martine at 7.9 lbs yesterday morning. Though they haven’t posted any of her photos, we have seen a variety of family photos taken when they were all waiting for her arrival.

It started when Paolo posted a photo of himself wearing a face mask with a caption that said, “My Halloween costume. #NataleiaMartine.”

Their cousin and artist RJ Dela Fuente then posted a photo of Paolo in full gear—with the funniest caption, if I might add.

Talent agency Manila Genesis posted a collage of photos of the Valencianos—Gary and Angeli with Kiana, Gab, and Paolo—with the announcement that Nataleia Martine has arrived and that both mom and daughter are doing well. Hooray!

BREAKING NEWS
Photographer/graphic designer Samantha Godinez-Valenciano gave birth to Nataleia Martine– her first child with husband director/singer Paolo Valenciano on November 2 at 1:21am at an undisclosed hospital. Samantha is the daughter of sound expert Jaime and Gina (Tabuena) Godinez. Nataleia “Leia” Martine who weighed 7.9 lbs is the very first grandchild of the Godinez couple, as well as Paolo’s parents, singer/performer Gary V and his wife Angeli (Pangilinan) Valenciano. “I’m speechless, dumbfounded… blessed… I remember Paolo…the day he was born,” stated the new grandfather Gary V. New dad Paolo V said “I’ll never look at a mother the same way again. They are the superior species! I can’t believe I’m a dad,” said first-time father Paolo who was crying the entire time his wife was giving birth. Present at the hospital while Samantha was in labor with Paolo by her side apart from their parents were their respective siblings, Gab and Kiana Valenciano as well as Alex and Mikel Godinez and some close relatives. Both the mother and the child are doing very well.

Paolo’s mom Angeli couldn’t help but post a throwback photo of Paolo and Samantha back when they were playmates—and now they’re parents.

Tricia Centenera also paid a visit and posted a few behind-the-scenes shots on her Instagram Stories. She congratulated Paolo to which he replied, “I did something right in my life.” Awww!

Another selfie was posted online and this shows the whole Godinez-Valenciano family (cousins and all!) hamming it up for Baby Leia. We can feel the excitement!

Congratulations, Samantha and Paolo! We really can’t wait to see photos of #NataleiaMartine soon.
