Kate Ritchie looks totally in love as she shares a sweet hug with her new boyfriend Chevy Black

Kate Ritchie and her boyfriend Chevy Black are going from strength to strength after revealing their relationship last month.

The new couple looked absolutely in love as they shared a sweet hug at Brisbane Airport shortly after arriving outside the terminal.

The former Home and Away star jumped on her toes to get a kiss on the lips from her eager man.

The 44-year-old was dressed casually in an oversized faded animal print shirt and white shorts.

She completed the look with designer sunglasses and added a pair of sneakers.

The radio star appeared to have minimal make-up and wore her dark brown locks in a ponytail.

Kate was holding a stack of magazines for her flight and had a light carrying case slung over her shoulder.

Chevy, meanwhile, was dressed comfortably in a white polo shirt and navy blue shorts, along with a dark cap.

The star recently took her romance to the next level by introducing Chevy to her mom Heather and eight-year-old daughter Mae.

The couple was first photographed together during a romantic picnic in early February.

According to women’s DayKate and Chevy have become incredibly close in the short time they’ve been dating, and she’s even met his family.

“She has been introduced to the family, including Chevy’s mother and siblings,” a source told the publication.

According to the publication, Chevy is a “nice and sweet type of guy.”

The star’s new relationship comes after Kate’s split from ex-boyfriend John Bell and her shock rehab for alcohol dependence.

In October, Kate announced she was quitting the Kate, Tim and Joel show in October, before it was revealed she was seeking treatment at an exclusive Sydney rehab facility.

In December, she said in a statement that the past year had been challenging and stressful and had led to an “unhealthy dependence on alcohol.”

Kate has since kept quiet about her return date, despite teasing in January that she’d be back on the air in a matter of weeks with her co-hosts Joel Creasey and Tim Blackwell.

However, it was reported in February that she may never return to Nova’s drive show Fitzy and Wippa, replacing their co-anchor Sarah McGilvray in the coveted role.

Current and former staff at the radio station told Daily Mail Australia they were blindsided by the news that McGilvray was being pushed aside to make way for incoming co-host Kate Ritchie, with some only hearing about it through the press.
