Kate Ritchie shares an adorable snap of her daughter Mae, five, hugging her surfboard while at the beach... amid AVO drama with husband Stuart Webb
She has had a difficult few months after police took out an AVO against her husband, NRL star Stuart Webb.
But on Friday, Kate Ritchie put her worries aside and enjoyed a day at the beach with her daughter Mae, five, who she shares with her husband of nine years.
Taking to Instagram, the 41-year-old actress and radio star shared an adorable snap of Mae hugging her surfboard while looking out into the distance.

Family drama: Kate's (pictured) post comes after her husband Stuart made headlines for his five-time drink driving history
His history was revealed in a police fact sheet earlier this month as he faced court for blowing 0.083 when he was pulled over by highway patrolmen in March.
Stuart came in front of a magistrate on the same day that NSW Police told Daily Mail Australia he will not be charged over a separate 'incident' at home with Kate in October.
That ended in an AVO being brought against him, which bans him being in Kate's company within 12 hours of drinking alcohol.

Court documents about the March incident said Stuart had 'glazed and bloodshot' eyes when he was pulled over by highway patrolmen in Randwick.
He had just run a red light and was also driving home on a suspended licence. In court documents, police described Webb as a drink driving 'repeat offender'.
In October, Daily Mail Australia confirmed Kate had moved out of the couple's marital home in Sydney's Randwick.
