‘There are notes on the joys of walking and talking with a friend; reflections on the pleasure of the sea and the unexpected joys of being still and noticing what’s around you. Beautifully illustrated with exclusive photographs of Kate and her own family, Everyday Play is an intimate portrait of the simple delight that is time spent with loved ones.

Earlier this month, Kate opened up about motherhood following her stint in rehab for alcohol issues.
The veteran actress told The Sunday Telegraph her daughter Mae, eight, gives her ‘purpose’ and ‘strength’.
‘Mae gives me incredible purpose and strength and she is one of the few people who allow me to be truly me. Nothing more or less,’ she said.
‘I am merely her mummy and she loves me for that. In fact, if I am to be really honest, as she gets older she is also teaching me I am deserving of love.’

In December, Daily Mail Australia broke the news Ritchie had entered an exclusive private mental health facility in Sydney to help treat her alcohol dependency.
The former Home and Away star told The Sunday Telegraph that after struggling with several personal challenges last year she decided it was time to seek help.
