Singer Gwen Stefani poses with newborn son Zuma in first official shot

Singer Gwen Stefani has released the first official photograph of her newborn son Zuma on her website, choosing to avoid a lucrative magazine deal.

The intimate portrait of Miss Stefani cradling her blue-eyed baby was taken by her father Dennis Stefani.

The child, full name Zuma Nesta Rock Rossdale, was born on August 21 and is a second son for Miss Stefani and her husband, the singer Gavin Rossdale.

Breaking with the celebrity tradition of selling the first photographs of their children for multi-million pound glossy magazine deals, the couple decided to post just one simple family shot on Miss Stefanis website.

Mr Rossdale said recently the couple's first child, two-year-old Kingston, is slowly getting used to the new family member.

He told American magazine People: "It's like, here is this guy, and he's not leaving. [Kingston] is getting used to that.

"Obviously, there are moments that he's bugged out that someone is in his spot with his mom."

The photograph of Zuma was released after paparazzi captured a series of unofficial snaps of him at a Hollywood Halloween party with his parents, and posing for the picture on his first library card.

Miss Stefani and Mr Rossdale took their two-month-old son to Beverly Hills Public Library this week where he had his picture taken for his first library card.

Zuma was held up as an assistant librarian took his photograph for the pass while his parents looked on proudly.

And last weekend the couple took Zuma to a fancy dress party hosted by actress Kate Hudson.

There he got to mingle with some of the biggest names in Hollywood, including Leonardo DiCaprio, Courteney Cox, Cindy Crawford, Sacha Baron Cohen and Isla Fisher.

It marked the first time the child had been photographed in public since his birth in August.
