Tarek & Heather Rae El Moussa are over the moon for the love they share this Valentine's!

Whenever February 14 rolls around, couples take time to express their deepest affection for each other, especially on social media. That is precisely what the lovebirds, who met nearly four years ago, did on Tuesday in separate posts shared with their combined 4.3 million followers. It is even sweeter for the couple who recently became parents to a new baby late last month.

Tarek led the charge, posting three images of himself and his wife looking glamorous and happy in love. In the first image, the real estate investor looked dapper in a black tux with velvet lapels and a matching button-down shirt beneath.

He was all smiles as he held his wife around her waist, looking deeply into her eyes. On the other hand, Heather wore a stunning red lace dress with a high neck and long sleeves. 

The "Selling Sunset" donned a white lace dress with a thigh-high slit in the second slide and matching high-heeled sandals while her beau remained in his tux combo. The couple struck a gangster pose with Heather's hand on her husband's shoulder and Tarek's leg on the wall behind them.

For the third pic, Tarek and Heather shared a sweet kiss as the former held the mother of his newborn in a dance dip pose. In his accompanying caption, the 41-year-old began:

"My forever Valentine To the love of my life @theheatherraeelmoussa - every day feels like Valentine's day with you and I really mean that. You are my best friend and the person I look forward to sharing my life with."

Tarek explained that Heather had changed him "for the better," even influencing how he looked at life. The HGTV star added that even though he thought it would be him and his kids — Taylor and Brayden, who he shares with ex Christina Hall — forever, he had a rethink when they met.

"Now here we are almost FOUR years later, married with a newborn baby boy and a full house. I wouldn't change it for the world. You and the kids mean everything to me and I can't wait to spend Valentine's day with you for the rest of our lives ❤️❤️❤️ me and you always," Tarek conclusively wrote.

After typing an emotionally detailed response in the comments, Heather took to her page to post her Valentine's tribute. For this, the reality star uploaded a single shot of her and Tarek standing barefoot on a dock.

While the new mom shone in a midnight blue thigh-high slit dress with her blonde locks flowing down her back, Tarek matched her with a two-piece suit and a white shirt. After noting that she was dropping a "Hubby appreciation post" and wishing him a "Happy Valentine's Day," the 35-year-old gushed:

"Seeing you be there for me as a new mommy to our baby boy while still juggling the kids and work... you never stop you have such a passionate drive. I have never loved you more."

She then praised him for always showing up for her and being "the best husband and daddy I could ever ask for," noting how lucky she felt to have him. "These last few weeks, it feels like my heart could explode with love and joy and happiness - I have never experienced this kind of feeling before. My heart is so full and it's all yours @therealtarekelmoussa. I love you my best friend," Heather finished.

Tarek ensured he was at the top of the comments, writing, "This one's for the ones that said we wouldn't last two weeks! ❤️❤️❤️ love you!!!!!" "You guys are the sweetest ? I'm so empowered by the love you show to each other," one fan effused, as another penned:

"This is the type of love I crave I hope I find something as special as you two have cause I truly feel your guys love for one another."

'The Flipping El Moussas' Welcome Their First Child Together 

Earlier this month, The Blast reported that Heather and Tarek announced the arrival of their first child together in a joint Instagram statement. To that end, they shared a photo of their hands on the baby's body who appeared to be in the crook of his father's arms.

The pair opted to exclude his face, showing off the blanket partly protecting his naked body. "Our baby boy is here ? 1.31.23. "Mama & baby are happy, healthy, tired but doing well. Our hearts are so happy ❤️," they penned beneath the adorable snap.

Although the couple is yet to share the baby's name, fans showed their joy and support in the comment section. One person happily gushed, "Congratulations!! I knew you were off getting this guy here!! Love to you all!!"

The post has garnered over 650k likes since it was shared on February 3.
