Dave Hughes and Kate Langbroek briefly reunite for the first time in MONTHS – as she prepares to return to Italy with her family
Dave Hughes and Kate Langbroek haven’t seen each other in a long time, after she moved to Italy in early 2019 on what was supposed to be a ‘family gap year’.
And as she prepares to extend her stay in Europe for another 12 months, Kate made time to catch up with her old radio co-host while in Melbourne on Friday.
The pair – who had been friends for more than 20 years when she chose to end their partnership – looked cheerful as they visited a café together.

‘Catching up with my soon to be absent again work wife legend @katelangbroek before she heads back to Italy tomorrow,’ Dave wrote on Instagram.
The 49-year-old comedian added the hashtag ‘#SoMuchGossip’.
Kate shared the same photo to her own Instagram account, telling her followers that she missed working with Dave since moving overseas.

‘It’s hard to think of bad things about living in Italy, but not getting to enjoy my beloved @davehughes on a regular basis is one of them,’ she wrote.
‘Making up for it before I leave tomorrow.’
Kate and her family had arrived in Australia for a holiday just before Christmas and are due to fly back to Italy on Saturday.
