Kate Ferdinand has been defended by her fans after her sweet family Christmas snap with husband Rio caused a negative response. The former The Only Way Is Essex star popped onto Instagram on Boxing Day (Monday) to share a family-filled photo from her Christmas with her family.
The snap showed Kate and Rio joined by their son, Cree, as well as Rio's children with late wife Rebecca Ellison - Lorenz, 16, Tate, 14, and Tia, 11, who he now raises with Kate. They were also joined by other members of the family and the group all adorably donned matching pyjamas.
The big group posed for a family photo in front of the Christmas tree to mark the special occasion, which Kate then shared with her 1.4m followers.
