Kate Ritchie spotted wearing a ring on THAT finger on-set of her latest TV project just months after going public with her new man Will Skelton
Kate Ritchie has been spotted wearing a diamond ring on her wedding finger.
The 46-year-old radio presenter is in a relationship with ‘top’ financial advisor Will Skelton after they met at Nova FM’s Singles Ball at Taronga Zoo in May.
The former Home and Away star wore a new ring as she headed to her ABC TV appearance in Sydney on Wednesday.
Kate wore a black puffer jacket and showed off a chunky gold ring on her left finger as she busied herself with a cup of coffee and a piece of paper.
She appeared to be in good spirits as she chatted on the phone outside a house where she was working on her latest project, a new factual series titled The Role of a Lifetime.
Kate wore gold earrings and her hair was neatly pulled back into a bun.
The actress turned radio presenter was later seen in smart casual attire: a navy jacket and blue jeans paired with a dark brown top.
She paired the look with sneakers and then braved the wet weather to slip into a nearby parked car.

Kate seems to be in love with her again, after a rough year in which she broke up with her boyfriend Chevy Black.
The actress and her new boyfriend Will, 30, looked completely loved up last month as they enjoyed a beachside picnic at Clovelly in Sydney.
Will is a highly successful financial advisor for Canaccord Genuity, a financial services firm based in Sydney.
“They’ve been spending almost every night together lately,” a source told Ny Breaking Australia last month.

“He’s told a lot of his colleagues. He just turned 30 in the last week.”
The couple couldn’t keep their hands off each other during their date on the beach, kissing and cuddling as they sat on a picnic blanket.
The actress seemed overjoyed to be in Will’s company, laughing heartily as the two chatted and joked happily.
Kate’s budding romance comes after she ended her relationship with boyfriend Chevy, just months after they went official on Instagram in May 2023.
The couple, who often showed their affection in public in Coogee, are said to have split sometime in November.

An insider told New Idea magazine at the time that there was a telling sign that their relationship was over.
“It seems like he has no reason to hide his life anymore,” the source told the magazine.
‘Until recently, Chevy preferred to keep his life a secret, with his social media set to private. He has now switched to a public Instagram profile.’
Kate fueled rumors of a split at the time by posting a reflective post on Instagram documenting how she was living her best life with a friend, but Chevy was not mentioned.
The couple seemed to be going from strength to strength after they announced their relationship in February 2023 with photos from a romantic picnic.
Kate later took her romance to the next level by introducing Chevy to her mother Heather and daughter Mae.
But by the end of that year, Kate was single again.
The former soap star split from her ex-husband, retired NRL player Stuart Webb, in 2020.

Kate married Stuart in 2010 in a lavish ceremony at the Quamby Estate in Tasmania, after a year-long engagement.
The former couple started dating in 2008 and announced their engagement a year later.
They split in 2020 after 10 years of marriage and the former child actress is said to have moved out of their marital home in Sydney.
In 2014 they had a daughter, Mae, but after nine years they separated.
The following year, in 2021, Kate debuted with her much younger boyfriend John Bell, who was 25 at the time.
The couple were spotted packing on the PDA as they holidayed in Byron Bay in January of that year.
Kate also dated former NRL star Chris Walker for five years during his heyday, before the pair split in 2006. Pictured together in 2006
The radio host and the cybersecurity worker went their separate ways after their romance ended a few months later.
“Kate is single. Lockdown is to blame,” a source told Ny Breaking Australia in December that year.
‘Kate and John haven’t seen each other since January, even though Victoria’s borders opened a few weeks ago. She hasn’t said once that she wanted to visit him.’
Before dating Stuart, Kate was in a relationship with professional skateboarder Corbin Harris, who is friends with Tony Hawk.
The couple ended their relationship in mid-2008, just months before she started dating Stuart.
