Kate Ferdinand has said that her step-son Lorenz has temporarily moved out of the family home as he makes a step in his career as a footballer - just like his dad Rio Ferdinand.
Kate was speaking on her latest episode of her podcast Blended, whilst discussing her family - which includes her husband Rio, 44, and her three step-children - when she confirmed the news.
Rio, who has been married to Kate since 2019, is dad to Lorenz, 16, Tate, 14, and Tia, 11, with his late wife Rebecca Ellison, who sadly passed away in 2015.
Kate and the sports pundit also share two-year-old son Cree, and they are expecting another child later this year.
In the podcast, which featured Rio, Kate mentioned that step-son Lorenz is living elsewhere at the moment, writes The Mirror.
Lorenz is following in the footsteps of his dad Rio who played football professionally for 20 years, and is understood to have signed to Brighton & Hove Albion under-18's team.
Speaking about their family, Kate said: "I don't even know if anyone knows this. [Lorenz] doesn't live at home at the moment. He's in digs with another family."
Rio added: "Because of what he's doing. He's playing football. We ain't just thrown him out".
It was then mentioned that Kate became emotional when the teenager moved out of their home, with Rio saying that she had been "crying" over the situation.
Kate said: "I was devastated when he moved out. [...] I miss him so much. We still see him twice a week but I miss him so much and that's taken a lot of getting used to."
The pregnant mum-of-one went on to say that the family looking after Lorenz have been complimentary, with Rio later adding that his son has been praised over his manners.
