The star has had a tumultuous time of late after being caught low-range drink driving in August.Ā Ā Ā 

Kate was stopped by police for a random breath test in her blue Subaru station wagon at 2.45pm on Heffron Rd in Pagewood in August.

Ritchie tested positive by the roadside and was immediately arrested and taken to Maroubra Police Station where she underwent a secondary breath analysis.

She returned a positive reading of 0.06, just a shade over the legal limit of 0.05.

She later made a public apology and is understood to have been fined $600 on the spot and suspended from driving for three months.Ā 

The former soap star was previously married to retired NRL player Stuart Webb, with who she shares a daughter, Mae, eight.

Ritchie shared a post to Instagram after the incident, apologising for her actions and said she made a 'poor decision'
