Kate Ritchie has today announced that she is expecting her first child. The former Home and Away actress, who married husband Stuart Webb in Tasmania in September 2010, issued the following statement personally via her management and official Facebook page:

It is with great excitement that Stuart and I announce we are expecting our first child.

We can assure you any secrecy up to this moment has been nothing more than us protecting what is most sacred – a new life that was far from reaching its 12 week milestone.

Thank you to all who have respected our privacy over these past weeks allowing us the privilege every couple deserves – to share the wonderful news ourselves.

It really is such a special time for us and we couldn’st be happier!

Kate played Summer Bay stalwart Sally Fletcher for over 20 years before filming her final episodes in December 2007. She made a short return to the show last year, alongside daughter Pippa, to coincide with Home and Away’ss 25th anniversary year.
