Most of their romance has been kept under wraps yet they ensure their joint love of fitness is well-documented on social media.
Yet Rio Ferdinand gave his most candid look into his relationship with Kate Wright on Saturday as he shared a clip while working out – in which he pretended to pass wind in her face, before she was left in peels of laughter.
The 39-year-old football ace proved himself to be quite the prankster as he lifted weights in line with his former TOWIE star, 26, before blowing a raspberry in her face.

Earlier in the week the couple enjoyed yet another playful session together, before poking fun at each other in a cheeky clip.
Making the most of her toned pins and tiny midriff, Kate slipped into a figure-hugging workout ensemble as she concentrated on squats while Rio worked on his biceps in the background.
And sharing the video, their trainer Mel chuckled: ‘That is a great look,’ at Kate’s face. Teasing her further, Kate raised his eyebrows at the camera before she playfully pushed him in protest.
Kate recently quit her reality TV career to focus on her relationship with Rio and his three children, telling The Sun: ‘I’m taking a step back from the public eye, I want to keep my life private as I lived my previous relationship on TOWIE, my priority right now is Rio and the family.’

A friend also told the publication that Kate had severed ties with several brands she had endorsed, in a bid to distance herself from the limelight.
This comes after Kate was reportedly overheard telling a pal how happy the couple were together. Despite having no plans yet to wed, she told a friend: ‘We are so happy together. It’s going really well,’ a source told The Sun.
Kate has made a huge effort to get to know Rio’s children: Lorenz, 11, Tate, nine, and Tia, six.
It seems to have paid off after a source revealed: ‘She was telling her friends how great everything is for her at the moment. Rio’s children love her.

‘She sees Rio as her soulmate – they have a real connection. She was saying she is happy to take a backseat with work and let his family be the priority.’
Adding that it was great to see her so happy especially compared to the drama of her TOWIE past.
In September, Kate revealed she was quitting the limelight to focus on Rio and his kids when she spoke for the first time about their relationship.
