An icon from the golden generation at a peak in football fever, Rio Ferdinand is known for being one of the best defenders in Premier League history, and has lived a lifestyle to match. Fast, glamorous and relentless, Rio's passion meant missed holidays, weddings - even the birth of his third child. Since then though, he's left the beautiful game behind, survived unimaginable grief, found love for the second time, and is once again a new dad. So, now, at 42, does family finally take front and centre? Has middle-age softened the edge that got him to the top? And how does he really feel about getting going grey? Plus, Dr Pixie McKenna clears up a few troublesome myths about men's health. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
