2014 was a long, eventful year. Former "X-Factor" judge Kelly Rowland got married and had a baby all in one year. While she experienced marital bliss with her longtime manager turned husband Tim Witherspoon and became a new mommy to Titan Jewell, she also experienced a great deal of heartbreak when she lost her mother, Doris at the end of the long year. Through it all, Rowland has remained a positive inspiration to her fans.

Kelly Rowland Shares the First Photo of Her Post Baby Bod! See It Here

On December 31, the 33-year-old posted the first official photo of her super private wedding to Tim Witherspoon that happened in May on a Costa Rica resort.

In the black and white photo, Rowland glances over her shoulder at the camera behind her. As the waves are captured in the background, the blushing bride walks up the stone-patterned walk way in a simple white dress with a draped back and a long white veil. Witherspoon looks dapper in a matching all-white suit, but seems to be unaware that the picture was being taken. Rowland, who's used to the flashing lights, was camera-ready and showed off her bright smile.
