Kate Ritchie has announced that she’ll be taking a break from Nova’s Tim, Joel and Kate drive show.

The daily drive show has been slowly finding a strong audience. However, Ritchie has announced she needs to take a short break to focus on her personal life.

It has been a big year for Ritchie. According to reports, she was fined for a DUI and suspended from driving for three months.

Then she had to deal with all the rumours Rickie Lee was set to replace her.  Rumours that Nova has now squashed.

Ritchie broke the news via Instagram and wrote: “As some of you may have heard from me on the show today, this past year has been hectic for my family and me. I have had much change, like many of you, in a short space of time, and it has taken its toll.

“So I’ve made the decision to take a short break to have more time for myself and my family to re-energise. I am so proud that our Nova show, with Tim and Joel and the team, is just powering along, going from strength to strength.

“We love you, our listeners, and you seem to put up with us! I will return to Nova’s Kate, Tim & Joel Drive Show in the New Year. Thank you to the team, to Nova and all of our fabulous listeners for your support and understanding!”
