The couple have been in a relationship since 2017.
Rio Ferdinand’s wife Rebecca died in 2015, aged 34, after she was diagnosed with breast cancer for a second time.
The football star’s 2017 documentary Rio Ferdinand: Being Mum And Dad, saw him caring for his young family in the aftermath of losing his wife.
Another documentary, Rio And Kate: Becoming A Stepfamily explored the challenges Kate dealt with in being both a partner to Rio and a new stepmother to three grieving children.
