Meet Kate Ritchie's New Toyboy!

Inside her romantic escape to Byron Bay

It’s the moment we’ve all been waiting for: there’s a smile back on Kate Ritchie’s dial – and a handsome new man by her side! For the past year, following her highly publicised split from husband, Stuart Webb, the radio host has kept a considerably low profile, concentrating on being a mum to their 6-year-old daughter, Mae.

But now, New Idea can exclusively reveal that Kate has finally found happiness again. Her mystery man is believed to be a businessman called John.

The pair recently enjoyed a relaxing and romantic getaway to Byron Bay, where they stayed in a lavish Airbnb in the NSW hinterland.

According to our spies, the new couple spent most of the holiday lounging by the pool and enjoying the hillside solitude, only venturing into the coastal town on a handful of occasions to dine out.

“When we saw them, they were hugging non-stop and acting like giddy teenagers,” spills one onlooker, who spotted Kate and John on one of their rare excursions. “They then got some takeaway breakfast and headed to the beach to eat.”
