The star’s new relationship comes after Kate’s split from ex-boyfriend John Bell and her stint in rehab for alcohol addiction.
In October, Kate announced that she was stepping away from the Kate, Tim and Joel show in October, before it was revealed that she was seeking treatment at an exclusive rehab clinic in Sydney.
In December, she said in a statement that the past year had been challenging and stressful, leading to an “unhealthy dependency on alcohol.”
Since then, Kate has remained mum on her return date, despite teasing in January that she would be back on the air with her co-hosts Joel Creasey and Tim Blackwell in a matter of weeks.

However, it was reported in February that she may never return as she prepares to embark on Nova’s show Fitzy and Wippa, replacing her co-host Sarah McGilvray in the coveted role.

A staff member said her departure was “brutal” for someone who had “gave a decade of her life” to a radio show and was popular with listeners, adding that she was “put aside without even a proper goodbye.” .

The Nova boys are baffled. Most people didn’t even know about it until the stories broke. Everyone had been asking, “Where’s Sarah?” and they were confused,’ said another.
McGilvray worked on Fitzy and Wippa for 12 years, eight of which he co-hosted with Ryan ‘Fitzy’ Fitzgerald and Michael ‘Wippa’ Wipfli. Prior to that, she was a Senior Producer for the Sydney Breakfast Show.
His exit has not been acknowledged on the air since he disappeared from the show nearly a month ago after an outburst with management over his role at the network.
A source with knowledge of the discussion said McGilvray was “upset and angry” at her bosses for effectively taking her job by bringing in Kate as a third host.
