Reality star Kate Ferdinand and former footballer Rio Ferdinand have shared the happy news that their second child together has arrived.
Kate took to her Instagram to let her 1.4 million followers know that her daughter was born on 10th July 2023.
The 32 year old posted a black and white image of her newborn in a white babygrow with just her hand showing.
The little one’s hand is pictured with all her siblings hands around her.
Kate captioned the post: “Shae Ferdinand. 10.7.23. Our strong little girl.”
The unique name is a gender-neutral choice meaning “admirable”.
Celebrity friends rushed to the post to share their congratulations with the couple.
Reality favourite Billie Shepherd wrote: “Congratulations to you all.”
While TOWIE star Georgia Kousoulou said: “Aww congratulations.”
The couple are also parents to their two year old son Cree and Kate is step-mum to Rio’s three children from his first marriage, Lorenz, 16, Tate, 14 and Tia, 11.
Kate and Rio announced they were expecting their second child together back in January.
The mum of one took to her Instagram with a black and white video where she could be seen with her back to the camera in a long neutral coat.
As she walked away, she turned and revealed her bump as she cradled her growing tummy and smiled at the camera.
She captioned the post: “We’ve been praying for you.”
The couple announced their romance back in 2017 and got engaged the following year.
In 2019 Kate and Rio married in 2019 and the couple welcomed their first child together in December 2020.
