Kate Ferdinand has given birth to a baby girl as she reveals her adorable name

KATE Ferdinand has revealed that she has given birth to a baby girl as she revealed her daughter's name.

The former Towie star took to her Instagram page with an adorable black and white photo as she revealed she welcomed her daughter into the world.

Kate, 32, and Rio, 44, could be seen holding the hand of their new baby girl in the sweet picture.

The former TV personality captioned the post: "Shae Ferdinand 🤍 10.7.23 Our strong little girl 🤍."

Back In January, the star revealed that she and her husband Rio were expecting their second child together.

The pair married in 2019 – and they already share young son Cree, two, whose hand was also seemingly visible in the social media announcement.

This was after she suffered a heartbreaking miscarriage last year, leaving her "devastated".

And now her former reality TV co-stars and her famous pals rushed to the comments section to send their well wishes.

Jess Wright said: "Congratulations ❤️❤️."

Georgia Kousoulou wrote: "Awwwww congratulations 😭🥹🥹🥹🥹💖💖💖💖💖."

Whilst Debbie Bright penned: " Omg ❤️ huge congratulations to you all. Blessed with the best 💛🌻."

Meanwhile, Chloe Lewis commented: "Congratulations to you all. Well done mumma."

Mummy Diaries star Billie Shepherd gushed: "Congratulations to you all 💕💕💕."

And former Love Island star Montana Brown added: "Congrats gorgeous ❤️."

Back in May, the star revealed her due date was approaching rapidly closer.

During an Instagram Q&A, Kate was asked: "How long before bubbas due. Exciting times."

Kate replied: "Eight weeks to go and the belly is rapidly growing."

This comes after she opened up on her terrifying raid ordeal at her home in an interview with Lorraine on ITV.

Husband Rio Ferdinand caught an intruder in their back garden and held him until cops arrived.

Rio, who has three children with late first wife Rebecca, and one boy with ex-Towie star Kate, owns the stunning mansion in an exclusive estate in the Home Counties.

The security scare is said to have left the family shaken.
