Rio and Kate Ferdinand expecting first child together

Such happy news!

Rio and Kate Ferdinand have announced that they’re expecting their first child together.

The couple announced the exciting news by sharing a sweet video of them telling Rio’s kids Lorenz, 13, Tate, 11, and nine-year-old Tia – who he had with his late wife Rebecca.

Kate wrote on Instagram: “The crazy house is about to get a little bit crazier ????… every time I watch this it makes me cry, the best reaction ????❤️????”

“Baby Ferdy we are all so excited to meet you ????????,” she added.

The famous footballer also shared the video on his own Instagram feed, and wrote: “We got our wish, another Ferdinand en route!!”

“@xkateferdinand I can’t wait to go through this whole pregnancy together and then bring our little human into this world ❤️ The reaction though ❤️????❤️????.”

The news comes just months after Kate and Rio tied the knot in Marmaris, Turkey last September.
