The former TOWIE star shared a picture of a Mother’s Day card on Instagram, which had Kate, Rio’s late wife Rebecca and other members of their family on it.
Kate wrote a heartfelt tribute for Rebecca, who died from breast cancer in 2015, and the family alongside the photo.
She wrote: “Lovely Mother’s Day dinner with family, we celebrated all 6 of us today 💗 how lucky we all are to have hearts that can love after so much pain. Happy Mother’s Day to everyone💗.”
Kate has previously spoken on becoming stepmum to Rio’s three children, Lorenz, 12, Tate, 10, and seven-year-old Tia, after they have been through so much.
