KATE Ritchie has refused to hose down fervent speculation that she and husband Stuart Webb have parted ways.

News broke yesterday that the Nova co-host and the former Sharks player have been living apart, after both being spotted sans wedding rings recently.

Nova did not respond to Confidential’s request for comment on the claims that were published in New Idea, and Ritchie herself added fuel to the fire on her show yesterday afternoon.

The couple were married in September 2010.

Commenting on how she spent her 38th birthday on Sunday, Ritchie didn’t mention her husband despite the allegations.

“I read my book to some kids at the One Fine Baby Fair, then I hung out with the family,” she said on air yesterday.

The rumours come ahead of their daughter Mae’s second birthday.

Some fear the couple, who were married in 2010, may not make it to celebrating their upcoming sixth wedding anniversary next month.
