Rio Ferdinand and wife Kate are expecting their first child together and have shared the news with the Manchester United legend’s three children in a heartwarming clip.
Former TOWIE star Kate filmed the moment she told Rio’s three children about the happy revelation and shared it on Instagram.
The couple are seen sitting in the dining room with children Lorenz, 13, Tate, 11, and nine-year-old Tia – Rio’s children with late wife Rebecca.
They browse a family photo album as they read out a line written: “Now for the next chapter, guess what?”
Kate, who struggles to contain her excitement, says: “I’m pregnant! Have you not noticed?”

The 29-year-old, who dresses in a long black robe, stands up and rubs her baby bump.
Lorenz, Tate and Tia jump for joy and rush to hug Kate and dad Rio.
The new mum wrote in her Instagram post: “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.”
