In an upcoming TV special celebrating 30 years of Home and Away, Kate seems to hint that they had 'a few hours of teenage passion'.

In 2014, she began hosting Nova 96.9's drive time program with Tim Blackwell and Marty Sheargold.
Kate married former NRL player Stuart Webb in 2010, with the couple welcoming their daughter Mae four years later.
Last December, Kate addressed rumours of marriage trouble in an interview with Stellar magazine.
'It doesn't hurt my feelings, not anymore,' she said. 'I think in the old days it did. There's no point in getting bogged down about what other people think is happening in my life.'

Kate also claimed that she and Bec Hewitt, her former co-star on Home and Away, often joke about which one of them makes it into the gossip magazines.
'The only positive in having the magazines write about my love life is that I know the Hewitts are getting a week off!' she joked.
Kate and Stuart married in an intimate country-style wedding in 2010, a year after getting engaged while on holiday in Europe.
