Jennifer Hawkins and her partner Jake Wall have been parents for just over a week, and they clearly can’t get enough of their gorgeous new addition, little baby Frankie.
Just like all new parents, these two can’t stop posting adorable photos of their little girl on social media, so lately we’ve been treated to some heartwarming new photos of this cute new beb.
On Thursday night, Jake uploaded this sweet pic of baby Frankie in a cute peach outfit, with the caption: “Hands up if you already have Dad wrapped around your finger… 🖤 #prouddad”.

“Last year was such a tough year for Jake and me. It was the toughest year of our lives. I felt like I almost broke and, in fact, it’s still really raw,” Jen told Stellar magazine.
“But Jake was amazing. He let me sit with the pain, feel it and not be OK.”
Jen and Jake have been together since 2013.

“As a woman and a type A personality, I’m used to planning everything. I think this will happen, then this will happen. It seemed like a lifetime as month after month people constantly asked us when we were going to have a baby,” she said.
The former Miss Universe Australia – Jen was awarded the title in 2004 at age 20 – was the face of department store Myer for 12 years, before stepping down from her ambassador role last year.
She and Jake have their own tequila brand Sesion, as well as an extensive property portfolio.

As for what kind of work she’ll be pursuing after she becomes a mother, Jen revealed she is just going to take it easy.
“People ask about work, social media, breastfeeding and I just don’t know. I just can’t predict and it’s good for me to let go for a little bit. I had a picture in my head of how many children I wanted by this age, but that’s gone out the door.”
At the time, she said she was just enjoying the process of being pregnant and feeling grateful for her newest addition.
“Just to see a bump is like no other feeling when you’ve wanted it for so long. I don’t care if I put on weight or get stretch marks … the only thing I can think about is her being healthy.”
