The happy couple are now celebrating the birth of their daughter, whom they've named after her mama, Rima. 

Wassim jokingly said after the birth that "I'm now in love with two Rimas."

Baby Rima was born in Beverly Hills, California, and she looked totes adorable in a stripy pink hat in a photo posted by her mama.

Rima said that after giving birth to Rima Jr, her definition of happiness drastically changed.

"I can't describe how I feel; after feeling what motherhood is, my entire perception of happiness changed... no, my entire perception of life has changed," she said. 

Congrats to the new parents (heart).
