Rio Ferdinand with wife Kate

Former England football star Rio Ferdinand's wife Kate has revealed that she felt abnormal and struggled with her post-pregnancy body after she gave birth to the couple's son, Cree last December.

According to British tabloid, The Sun, the former reality star has never shied away from flaunting her fit body on social media. And now she is learning to love her post-baby body. "There are so many things about motherhood that no one tells you. I'd had the baby and I was in this whirlwind of emotion. My body was not the body I recognised. I felt really overwhelmed.

"I was feeling really abnormal and I started panicking. ‘Am I meant to be feeling like this?' I was so happy but very emotional. When you are going through post-pregnancy, you can't see out of the bubble. You think, ‘I am never going to go back to normal or feel the same again,' " said Kate.
