With marriage split rumours swirling and her husband’s drink driving charges hanging over the couple, the dramas surrounding Kate Ritchie are taking a toll on the actress, who recently spoke revealing about her life as a mum (see video below).
Looking tired and strained, 40-year-old Kate was spotted in Sydney in Wednesday, May 1, while running errands with her mother and daughter Mae, 4.
Kate looks stressed in the heartbreaking photos, obtained exclusively by New Idea.
Worryingly, Kate doesn’t appear to be wearing wearing a wedding ring in the pics, further fuelling rumours that she and husband Stuart Webb are having difficulties.
Stuart is set to face court for drink driving charges on May 7, after his original court date was pushed back, and the stress the possible jail time for Stuart is causing Kate is becoming apparent.
The former rugby league player was arrested on March 26 after he allegedly blew 0.083 when police stopped him for running a red light in Sydney’s eastern suburbs.
Stuart, 38, had reportedly run the light on Avoca Street in Randwick, a short distance from the couple’s home.
The incident occurred at about 4pm in the afternoon.
Kate has previously denied rumours of a break up before, telling Australian Women’s Weekly in October 2018: “Of course [split rumours] are wrong…it is baseless.”
She continued: “Firstly, I think good luck to anybody who thinks that they know what is going on in my life because there are times when I am not sure – and I don’t mean that in a negative way.”
