Countdown to Kate’s wedding!

Countdown to Kate's wedding!

Fresh from a six-week break overseas, Kate Ritchie is back in Sydney – and she’s straight into wedding mode.

The ex-Home And Away star, who is engaged to rugby league player Stuart Webb, 29, has been tight-lipped about their plans, but it’s understood the wedding will take place this spring.

And by the looks of these photos, Kate, 31, is keen to step up her preparations – but they will have to wait until her fiancé returns home at the end of the French rugby league season.

“Kate has just returned from a holiday overseas with Stuart, who was playing football over there,” says a close friend of the couple.

“She’s just enjoying being home and having some time off before her new show, Cops LAC, begins filming next week.

“Stuart won’t return until next week, and when he does, she looks forward to planning things with him then.”

In Stuart’s absence, an overjoyed Kate has been excitedly discussing ideas for her big day with her younger sister Rebekah.
