Kate Ferdinand announces she's pregnant six months after heartbreaking miscarriage

Kate Ferdinand announced that she and her husband Rio are expecting their second child together as she showed off her blossoming bump in an Instagram video.

The sweet news comes just six months after the couple revealed that they had miscarried as she told her followers that they'd been 'praying' for another child.

In the video posted on her Instagram grid, Kate opens her coat to reveal a baby bump under a black midi dress.

Former footballer Rio also shared the video to his own account with the number five in a red love heart. Kate, 31, and Rio, 44, already share son Cree and Rio's three children Lorenz, 16, Tate, 14, and Tia, 11, from his marriage to late wife Rebecca.

In September, Kate told her fans that she had a miscarriage in the summer.

Kate found out that she was pregnant again the day before her birthday and the whole family were 'so excited'.

She said: "We just thought it would be lovely to for him to have a little friend running around. The kids clocked on this time so we told them and some family this time."

Speaking on her podcast Blended, Kate opened up about the moment she realised her pregnancy wasn't progressing and seeing the sonographer's face when they were told there was no heartbeat.

Kate said she immediately 'burst into tears'.

"We went to lunch before the 12-week scan and there was blood there and I felt like god was giving me a sign. We were literally leaving to go to the scan.

"It was a Friday and Lorenz's birthday on the Sunday and then surgery on the Monday. It was the longest weekend of my life."

"We both tried to pretend it wasn't happening and it was fine. It was the longest walk ever to the hospital. I felt like I knew and someone was preparing me. I just had to look at the lady's face. It was awful, I just burst into tears.

She added: "I wasn't prepared for what happens afterwards. We had planned how to tell everyone. We had filmed the kids and were going to go home and put it on social media.

"I just wanted to get out of the room but also thought of leaving the room terrified me because I have to go and tell the children and go home and act normal.

"It was a Friday and Lorenz's birthday on the Sunday and then surgery on the Monday. It was the longest weekend of my life."
