KATE Ferdinand has been mum-shamed after sharing a rare picture of husband Rio Ferdinand and the kids.

The backdrop of the snap saw a stunning Christmas tree in place as they gathered together.
But fans were left confused as to why Kate had shared the snap, giving she’d placed heart emojis over seven of the children’s faces.

Fans were left confused by Kate’s latest picture and questioned “what the point is.”
One person wrote: “What’s the intent in posting with so many covered?”
Another said: “Why post if you don’t want peoples face to be seen !!!” and a third added: “Don’t understand a photo like this when so many faces are covered. Yes, keep the kids private but this photo is pointless.”
Someone else penned: “What even is the point of posting this picture??? It’s clearly a private photo with faces covered up. I don’t get why you would still continue the posts and photos when blanked out? Why not just keep them private ?”
And a fifth said: “Keep this one private and take one with those on it who can be seen... simple!”
Kate’s festive snap comes after the blonde beauty shared a photo of Rio being mobbed by his children as he returned home from working in Qatar for the World Cup.
The ex-England defender cuddled his four children as he walked through the door of the family mansion.
Tate, Lorenz, Tia and Cree were delighted to see their dad as Kate caught the moment on camera.
Sharing it on Instagram, she wrote: "Daddy’s home. 4 weeks has felt like 8 🥺 Couldn’t be happier to have my husband home ❤️."
