Rio Ferdinand may just have won himself the title of ‘best husband ever’.

Yep, the footballer secured himself all the brownie points just a mere few hours after tying the knot to former Towie star Kate Wright in Turkey.

Why you ask? He only managed to get Ashanti to perform at their wedding reception. ASHANTI.

Kate revealed the Foolish singer had serenaded the newlyweds and their wedding party by sharing a video of Ashanti in action and we can’t quite believe it. Just imagine how that surprise would have gone down.

In the clip, Kate is seen cuddling up to Rio while dancing to Ashanti singing her hit Into You with Fabulous and, of course, the entire place goes off when the next track launches into the intro of Always On Time.

All you needed was Ja Rule to come bursting out behind the scenes.

Kate and Rio hosted a stunning three-day affair in Turkey that saw them tie the knot in an idyllic ceremony held in Marmaris, Turkey, where Kate was walked down the aisle by Rio’s two sons; Lorenz, 13, and Tate, 11.

She looked stunning in a low-cut lace bridal gown and had gushed on Instagram about the special moment, writing: ‘There were so many special moments at our wedding… but this is one I will never forget #proud #myboys.’

Kate and Rio are now back home as Mr and Mrs, and Rio had headed straight back to work after the wedding as he was seen commentating on the football for BT Sport.

Reports claim that Kate is feeling a little ‘flat’, now their dream weekend has come to an end.

An insider told Heat: ‘There wasn’t a dry eye in the house when Kate walked in, and Rio said he felt like the luckiest man in the world.

‘Partying continued into the next day and no-one wanted to leave, which made it even harder when Rio returned to work so quickly – Kate can’t help but feel a little flat.’

She and Rio are yet to jet off on honeymoon together, with Rio claiming on his return to work that ‘football takes priority’.

Although, we’ve no doubt they’ve got something pretty special planned for when they do eventually go off honeymooning.

Kate and Rio announced their engagement in November 2018. He had proposed in front of his three children, Lorenz, Tate and daughter Tia, eight, during a trip to Abu Dhabi.

Rio shares his kids with late wife Rebecca, who he shares with late wife Rebecca Ellison.
