Thanks to his PR folks, the first image of Eric Benet and wife Manuela Testolini’s new baby girl Lucia Bella, who was born in LA on December 21st, 2011, is out.

The couple is featured in this week's Us magazine as well.

Eric says about his newly expanded family:

"Manuela and I are overjoyed with baby Lucia! She is perfect in every way and as expected, Manuela is truly proving to be the world's best mother. She is so attentive, nurturing and loving.  Little Lucia also gets a doting big sister in India, and an older, wiser daddy this time around. We must be the happiest family on the planet right now."

By the way, Eric has a new single “Real Love,” which is the first single off his forthcoming, new album The One, available May 8th, 2012.
