An owner of a tiny garden centre in Campbelltown, Sydney, expressed his amazement after Home And Away actress Kate Ritchie and her mother Heather visited last week.
On Thursday, Tim from Tim’s Garden Centre said through Instagram that Kate, 44, once visited his nursery when she was a young actor and that he was delighted to see her again.
Wow, I just experienced a pleasant surprise when I turned to look at Kate Ritchie. When she was on Home and Away, she used to frequent this location with her mother,’ he wrote next to a picture of himself and Kate holding hands.
Tim revealed that Heather was still a frequent shopper and that he recently gave her two scarves: one for her daughter and one for her as part of a charity gift.
When Kate visited, she choose to wear the scarf, demonstrating once again why she is Australia’s friendliest radio personality.

I really started grinning when I saw Kate as I looked out from the lunchroom, Tim continued. I’ve been listening to Kate on Nova’s Breakfast with Fitzy and Wippa. She always offers those boys very wise advise. I have a slight fandom.
Additionally, the company owner disclosed that Kate had just started following his garden center’s Facebook page and had even bought a rosemary plant.
Perhaps she’ll prepare Rosemary Lemon Chicken tonight? She did admit to being a talented cook. She was a pleasure to speak with. He concluded, “She did look fantastic in Tim’s Red Scarf.

Kate wore a blue knit sweater, traditional blue denim, and an eye-catching scarf.
Following Kate and Tim’s Instagram snap, the garden center’s fans commented how much they were looking forwards to the trip.
One commenter remarked, “How good is this!” Another remarked, “You’re nearly as red as that scarf, you’re blushing that much mate.”

After appearing on the Shock Jocks podcast, radio personality Tim Blackwell seemed to confirm suspicions of a falling out with his former Nova FM co-host Kate.
The 41-year-old said, “That’s a question for her, I know nothing,” when asked what caused Kate to leave.
I believe it ran its time and I believe she wanted a fresh opportunity, and [new presenter] Ricki-Lee Coulter was also present, he continued.
After an extended absence and a stay in treatment for alcoholism, Kate had left the show.
