Kate Ritchie goes without her wedding ring as she picks up coffee on her 42nd birthday - after reports she and husband Stuart Webb were getting counselling for their issues
Kate Ritchie's marriage to retired rugby league player Stuart Webb is said to be on the rocks.
And the former Home and Away star did little to dispel those rumours as she stepped out without her wedding ring on her 42nd birthday in Sydney on Friday.
Dressed in head-to-toe activewear and a baseball cap, the Nova FM radio host kept a low profile as she picked up a coffee to kick-start her celebrations.

In April, New Idea reported that the troubled couple had been attending 'counselling' for their issues.
'Stuart has been trying to show Kate that he's a changed man and is serious about getting his life in order,' a friend told the publication at the time.
Kate and Stuart were last spotted together in February, when they celebrated their five-year-old daughter Mae's first day of school.

The reunion came three months after Kate reportedly moved out of their marital home in Randwick after police took out an interim AVO on her behalf against the former NRL star, following an incident at the property.
In December, Stuart's five-time drink driving history was revealed in a police fact sheet, as he faced court for blowing 0.083 when he was pulled over by highway patrolmen in the city's east in March last year.
Kate and Stuart tied the knot in a lavish ceremony in Launceston, Tasmania, in 2010.
