Kate Ferdinand gushes over daughter Shae, 11 months, as she takes her first steps – but star’s husband Rio tells her off for showing fans something he didn’t want them to see

Kate Ferdinand cried as she watched baby girl Shae take her first steps in a new video shared with her fans.

Rio Ferdinand’s doting mother and wife couldn’t stop gushing over the little one, who is only 11 months old.

The former TOWIE star, 38, shared a heartwarming Instagram clip with the caption: ‘My baby is on the way.’

The TV personality flashed a bright smile as he proudly helped little Shae learn her first steps.

But Rio wasn’t impressed with anything he saw in the video and took to the comments section to playfully tell Kate off.

Rio, 45, wrote: ‘Please please can you put your shoes in the closet before filming,’ leaving fans in stitches.

Their followers were touched by Shae’s sweet clip, writing: ‘Better footwork than Rio used to! Keep going, little babaaaaa’; ‘The happiness in your voice is everything x’;

‘Precious moments, and I love her romper’; ‘So emotional when they take their first steps’; “She’s so tall.”

Earlier last week, Kate and Rio shared an insight into their son Lorenz’s lavish 18th birthday party on Instagram.

The former England footballer and ex-TOWIE star looked happier than ever as they hit the dance floor at the boozy bash.

Lorenz was treated to personalized cocktails in the evening as he celebrated with friends and family.

Guests were seen posing with the birthday boy against a personalized backdrop for a photographer.

Kate looked fantastic for the special occasion in a strapless white top with white bows down the front.

The former reality star added a black satin skirt under the number and elevated her toned frame with a pair of heels.

She was all smiles as she danced with husband Rio and was also spotted taking selfies in a photo booth.

Rio cut a dapper figure in an all-black outfit as he danced solo around the venue in another clip.

Kate couldn’t contain her smile as she danced with son Cree, who rocked a pair of red earmuffs.

The venue, which was lined in black with glittering lights and disco balls, had a huge lighted 18, a DJ and a checkered dance floor.

Bartenders were also spotted showing off their personalized T-shirts with the text ‘Lorenz turns 18’ on the front.

The couple – who tied the knot in September 2019 – are proud parents to son Cree, three, and daughter Shae, who they welcomed last July.

Kate is stepmother to Rio’s children Lorenz, Tate, 15, and Tia, 13, whom he shared with his first wife Rebecca Ellison, who tragically passed away in 2015 after a brief battle with breast cancer.

The celebration comes after Kate showed off her strong bond with stepson Lorenz as she praised him for his achievements.

Lorenz follows in the footsteps of his footballer father Rio and ended his season at Brighton FC under 18 with an awards ceremony.

Kate went along to watch the teenager, who signed as Seagull’s U18s goalkeeper in 2022, pick up a gong before he moves back to the family home this summer.

She wrote, “And just that the season is over. What a proud moment to see you receive your award last night. It has been a joy to watch you grow and I feel so lucky to be on this journey with you.

“I love you so much and we are all so happy that you can be home this summer before the hard work continues.”

Last month, Rio’s eldest son signed with New Era Global Sports Management, joining his father and uncle Anton at the agency.

He signed for Brighton as an under-18 goalkeeper in 2022 and has made 18 appearances for the Seagulls junior team this season.

New Era’s current Premier League clients include Everton defenders Ben Godfrey and Michael Keane and Jacob Murphy.

In addition to current stars, the agency also represents the interests of Ferdinand, Mick McCarthy, Harry Redknapp and Robbie Savage.
