Former star of The Only Way is Essex, Kate Ferdinand is one of the most recognisable faces in the British media. A fitness guru, social media sensation and reality television favourite, Kate is the ideal figure to add glamour to any occasion. Adored by fans for her down to earth and open nature, Kate can present awards as a famous face or offer an insightful talk on her career, parenting and handling bereavement, issues close to her heart.
Rising to fame on ITV’s, Kate waltzed onto the scene in a Marbella special of the programme, becoming an instant hit with viewers for her style, charm and outgoing personality. Throughout her two years as a cast member Kate, who was known as Kate Wright at the time, showcased her lavish Essex lifestyle, giving audiences a behind the scenes look at her relationships, friendships and social life, a true favourite of the show. Between 2015 and 2017 Kate appeared in a total of sixty two episodes, before disembarking from the series to focus on her family.
Gaining popularity has led Kate to have a vast platform on social media, with over 1.2 million followers on Instagram alone. Utilising her online presence, Kate has become a respected fitness guru, sharing her online workouts and fitness plan on Instagram and YouTube, along with regular fitness challenges. Relatable and knowledgeable, Kate has released a health and fitness book titled ‘Fitter, Happier, Healthier: Discover the Strength of Your Mind and Body at Home’, in addition to reading a fitness edit with clothing retailer dare2B.
One of the biggest challenges Kate has faced in recent years is taking on the role of Step Mother to her husband, Rio Ferdinand’s children. Starting their relationship in 2017, Kate not only became a wife, step parent and carer, she also took on the grief the family were suffering after Ferdinand’s first wife had passed away. Kate has been open about her mental journey and how to support others appearing on the likes of This Morning, and featuring in a documentary ‘Rio & Kate: Becoming a Step Family’ for the BBC, normalising family therapy and bereavement counselling.
A well loved figure in the media, Kate is a versatile addition to any occasion guaranteed to add glamour, personality and star factor.
