Kate Ferdinand recently shocked fans when she revealed she's expecting her second child, after managing to keep her growing baby bump hidden for weeks on social media.
The former The Only Way Is Essex star, 31, took to Instagram on 29 January to reveal she's expecting another baby with her husband Rio Ferdinand, 44, and shared a sweet video of her showing off her bump.
Kate, who already shares two year old son Cree with Rio, could be seen pulling back her long wool coat to unveil her bump and smiling at the camera as she placed her hand on her stomach.
The mum-of-one has been keeping her pregnancy under wraps over recent weeks, and has managed to stop any speculation by using clever tricks in her social media photos.
While she usually shares snaps of her stylish outfits and gruelling gym workouts, Kate has instead only shared a handful of posts in 2023, most regarding her podcast and new book.
She shared a collection of photos from the festive period on 5 January, but was careful not to let her followers notice she is expecting.
Kate only shared three photos of herself, with the rest being of her and Rio's festive celebrations with their children. In one photo, she sported a long brown cool coat and held her hands in front of her stomach.
In another snap, Kate could be seen sitting on the sofa as she cuddled her son Cree, with her baby bump entirely concealed.
And in a sweet photo of her and Rio posing in front of their Christmas tree, Kate wore a tailored white blazer and long dress, and held a glass of champagne in front of her stomach.

Kate, who is also step-mum to Rio's three children Lorenz, 16, Tate, 13, and Tia, 11, was inundated with congratulatory messages following her recent announcement.
Molly-Mae Hague said: "Congratulations Kate." Meanwhile, Billie Shepherd wrote: "Huge congratulations darling."
Michelle Keegan added: "Congratulations darling," and Mrs Hinch also shared her well-wishes to Kate, writing: "Congratulations how amazing xxxx."
Rio and Kate married back in 2019 in a beautiful beach ceremony in Marmaris, Turkey, after three years of dating. In December 2020, Kate and Rio welcomed their first child together, Cree.
The couple's baby news comes after Kate opened up about how she had suffered a devastating miscarriage and had to have surgery following her 12 week scan in 2022.
At the time she posted a black and white image of herself in a hospital gown to Instagram.
She wrote: "The last time I was in this hospital I was having Cree, but this time it was because our baby had no heartbeat in our 12 week scan and I had to have surgery," followed by a heartbroken emoji.
