Nova host Kate Ritchie has confirmed her pregnancy.

NOVA host and ex-Home and Away star Kate Ritchie has confirmed this morning that her and husband Stuart are expecting their first child.

The radio host released statement earlier today on Facebook announcing the pregnancy.

“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’t be happier! KR x”

Ritchie’s pregnancy was first rumoured in January when a womans magazine broke the news but the couple refused to confirm as they weren’t yet through the first trimester.
