‘Lots of people have the same sorts of things to look after and sort out. 

‘I think life is fun, and short, and wonderful, and you just take each chapter as they come along. 

‘There’s no point overthinking stuff – you just get on with it’. 

The Leeds Rhinos star, 32, welcomed a new baby according to his coach Rohan Smith who said on Monday: ‘Richie has spent a bunch of time in hospital with the birth of his new little baby, so we’ve given him a little time off to settle in at home’.

‘There were two buses for the cast – the party bus and the quiet bus.

‘They spent a lot of time chatting on the quiet bus and getting to know each other. They have a lot in common – a love of the outdoors, for example.

‘Between shows they also spent time together one-on-one, like going for coffee, just the two of them.

‘Then, if the whole group went for dinner, they would sit together, deep in conversation.’

The star posted on her Instagram in April 2022 to share the news that her marriage to Richie was over.

It came four months after she had given birth to their youngest child – a daughter called Elsie.
