She captioned the post:

‘The crazy house is about to get a little bit crazier … every time I watch this it makes me cry, the best reaction. Baby Ferdy we are all so excited to meet you.’ 

Kate does regular posts about her pregnancy

The former TOWIE star, Kate used to update her fans about the progress of her pregnancy. The couple shared a number of fun videos of the gender reveal party with the family.

She had a lot of issues during the third trimester including back pain. She used a fitness ball to lessen the pain. Kate also revealed her struggles as she managed the kids with her mental health issues and pregnancy.

She had anxiety during the first trimester and the lockdown worsened it.

She said Women’s Health going for the Goal podcast:

‘Lockdown has been an experience. Obviously I was pregnant and the children didn’t know, and something I’ve struggled with is being pregnant with my first biological child and still being a mum.”

She also discussed her emotional and insecure feelings. Pregnancy also made her feel tired and energyless.

Kate and her workouts with Rio

The mum-to-be used to go for regular walks with the family. She and Rio used to do workouts together and they used to upload the videos on their Ferdinand Fitness YouTube Channel.

She recommended people consult professionals before doing the exercises and workouts during pregnancy.

Talking about her pregnancy workouts, she said:

‘I’m working out at a lot slower pace and taking it easy, listening to my body really.’

As regards uploading pregnancy workout videos in the future, she stated:

‘Potentially in the future… obviously I’m not a personal trainer and I’m not qualified in that. It will just have to be the right advice going forward. 

‘At the moment, I’m a bit quiet on social media, I’m just enjoying my time with the family and things like that before lockdown goes crazy again.’
