Kate Ferdinand celebrated her daughter Shae’s 3rd birthday with a fun-filled trip to Disneyland Paris.
The TOWIE star, 35, has been solo parenting while husband Rio is away at the World Cup.
Rio has spent six weeks working in the US for the football tournament, leaving Kate to hold down the fort at home in Dubai, with stepson Tate, 17, and stepdaughter Tia, 14, and their son Cree, four, and daughter Shae.
Taking to her Instagram on Friday, the reality star shared a carousel of snaps documenting her time at Disneyland for her youngest daughter’s birthday.
In one snap, Kate looked incredible as she flashed her abs in a polka-dot crop top while posing next to Mickey Mouse.
She also shared a clip of her children enjoying a show by the Genie from Aladdin, along with Tiana from The Princess and the Frog waving on a parade float.

The star finished the photo dump with a sweet black-and-white snap of her children holding hands.
She captioned the post: ‘My baby girl Shae Shae turned 3 today, and we spent the day at @Disneylandparis celebrating.
‘The most magical day ever! I have some very, very tired but happy children going to bed tonight.’
Kate also took to her Instagram Stories and shared a gushing post to her little tot.
Alongside an adorable image of them both at the theme park, she penned: ‘My crazy, funny, sassy, boisterous, strong-willed 3-year-old princess Shae Shae. To think this time 3 years ago you were in NICU, now look at you.’
Kate’s daughter was rushed to NICU just minutes after she was born in July 2021.
Kate and Rio were shocked after being told their second child was born with congenital pneumonia.
Congenital pneumonia can cause respiratory distress within the first 24 hours of life and can be caused by an infection in the fetal fluid.

Kate previously said that ‘Mum guilt hit me from the very minute she was born’ after the trauma of seeing her child in NICU (pictured in 2021 with newborn Shae)
‘I am sitting in the room, no Rio, no baby and I’m watching Love Island. I just felt like it was a complete out of body of experience,’ she said on her podcast.
‘I’ve given birth, no one’s here, how guilty do I feel watching Love Island and my baby is in NICU.’
Later, as her spinal wore off, Kate was allowed into intensive care to see Shae. ‘I was hysterical. I couldn’t pick her up. I didn’t really want to be there,’ an emotional Kate recalled.
‘It was harder being next to her and not being able to be with her and just stare at her not being well than being away from her. Then I had terrible guilt about not wanting to be there. Mum guilt hit me from the very minute she was born.’
Thankfully, after five days in hospital both Kate and Shae were allowed home.
Her trip to Disneyland comes after Kate revealed the challenges of juggling her busy work schedule with looking after her family.
She even shared a countdown chart they’d put together in anticipation of ‘Daddy’s return.’
Kate also shared a clip of herself working out in the gym, and snaps of her children enjoying some arts and crafts, and watching England’s Round of 32 victory over the DR Congo.
