"I think that at least for Australia anyway, it's a big step," she said about joining the show despite not being a typical houswife. "It's a really big step and I still get asked the question, 'How are you a housewife' and I think being able to reimagine what a housewife is... I feel honoured."
"I really do feel like this is fabulous. I'm glad for young people out there...and for people like me."
Kate's newest TV gig marks a distinctive change in her career direction, as she closes the chapter on five years of Bondi Vet.
"I had always only ever really shown one part of my life on that show," she explains, "But this [Real Housewives of Sydney] was an opportunity for me to show a different part of my life and it was a real challenge."
"I'm always one to roll the dice and I thought, You know what, this is just a great natural progression."
"Beverly Hills will always be my OG," Kate, a self-described "super fan" of the renowned franchise laughs, "It's really nice to be able to see now what is actually happening on the other side."
"There are parts of everybody and every character [on the show] that you don't always 100% agree with," Kate explains, "and then there are parts that you do and I think being able to identify with someone on the show makes it really enjoyable to watch, so I hope we did that in our season."
