Former England football star Rio Ferdinand’s wife Kate has revealed that she thought her husband would divorce her seeing her post-pregnancy body. The couple welcomed son Cree last December. Kate is step mother to Ferdinand’s three kids Lorenz, Tate, and Tia. 

On Rochelle Humes’s podcast, My Little Coco, Kate said: “I like Rio to see me in a nice way. I am rough sometimes, but I wouldn’t let him see me in certain states. When I was in this bed [after giving birth] I had the big hospital knickers on, I was just wiped out, I couldn’t walk. It was just not a pretty sight, and I just saw him looking at me and I thought, ‘He’s going to divorce me!’ ”
