And while former footballer Rio “loves” their new life, previously got teary during a new episode of her podcast Blended as she admitted it’s tough for her.
Earlier this month, she told how she was “missing home quite a lot”.
Now she has detailed another bump in the road following the move – telling her Blended podcast co-hosts that she had been suffering boils on her neck due to the heat.
After praising Nathalie and Cilla’s skin, Kate said: “My skin has been so bad since I’ve lived in Dubai.
“I’ve had so many breakouts, I’ve normally got quite clear skin and I’ve been having boils under my neck.
“I don’t know if it’s the heat or the weather, I’m very insecure about it”.
Her co-stars reassured her she looked “gorgeous”.
Kate also then talked about the hard water quality in the UAE, and how showers have to have filters and its not advised to wash fruit in tap water.
It isn’t the first hurdle Kate has faced since her move.
Previously, she laid bare the reality of her emotions and told her pod: “I think it’s an amazing place to live, I think it’s amazing for the children.
“The children are thriving and happy and living a life of just outside freedom.
“Rio loves it so much. I am enjoying it, but I miss home quite a lot. I can’t talk about it because I get upset,” said Kate as she grappled with tears.
which consists of their two kids Cree and Shae, and Rio’s children Lorenz, 19, Tate, 17, and Tia, who he welcomed with his late wife Rebecca.
The family of seven but eldest sons Lorenz and Tate have remained in the UK amid the UAE move to focus on their budding football careers.
Admitting being apart from her stepsons is making things harder, Kate continued: “I miss the big boys a lot and I’m just struggling with that.
“I know this decision is right for my younger children and as a family we are settled there, but the boys are following their football careers.
“So they’re doing what they want to do otherwise they’d be with us.
“But it’s very hard because we’ve been through so much as a family and we’ve always been together and that’s a huge adjustment.”
Kate also said that while she feels happy in their new home, a part of her is “missing”.
She and Rio met in Dubai back in 2016 while visiting on respective holidays,
Last summer, Kate revealed they were making the move as she said: “
A new chapter, a fresh start — because if we don’t try, we’ll never know.
“Ahhh! We’ve talked about this for so long, and now it’s finally real… we’re here, we are making a new home in the place we met!”
