Family life

Kate and Rio share son Cree and daughter Shae.

She is also step-mum to his three kids, Lorenz, 14, Tate, 12, and Tia, nine, who he shared with his late wife Rebecca.

The Essex-born star has spoken candidly about her blended family, even creating her own podcast, Blended.

Talking of her role in the Ferdinand clan, the How To Build A Family author exclusively told us: "I feel settled.

"[Experts] say it takes up to seven years to adjust to a new blended, stepfamily set-up.

"I remember hearing that and thinking: ‘Are you joking? I’m two years in and that’s a really long time.’

"But now we’re six years in and we’re all used to each other.

"It takes a while to get to know people after so much trauma and everything that has gone on.

"Becoming a parent is not built in big, sweeping moments. It’s lots of small things you do all the time.

"And it takes time to build that bond and relationship. But now I feel secure."
