Does Kate Ferdinand love her son more than her stepchildren? She says she 'loves all four'

Rio Ferdinand’s wife Kate

Former England football star Rio Ferdinand's wife Kate has hit back at claims that she would love her son, Cree more than her step children, reported British tabloid, The Sun.

Two-month-old Cree is Kate's biological child, while she is step mom to Ferdinand's three children (Lorenz, 14, Tate, 12 and Tia, nine) from his late wife Rebecca. A fan asked Kate during an Instagram live session: "Do you love your own child a lot more than step children? I fear this will happen to me." To this, Kate replied: "People ask me this a lot. I love all four children equally and I will never see any difference between my biological and non-biological children."

Kate praised her step children and said that they taught her to love a child even before she had her own. "We worked so hard as a family to get to where we are now, and I take huge offence if anyone even suggests that I would love Cree more than them. Lorenz, Tate and Tia taught me what it feels like to love a child way before I had Cree," added Kate.
