Kate Ritchie, precisely 5ft 4 (162.6 cm) tall, is an Australian entertainment icon whose petite stature enhanced her commanding presence as Sally Fletcher on Home and Away. From 1988 to 2008, her 162.6 cm height contributed to the character's relatable, enduring appeal as the soap's longest-serving female role.
Her compact 5ft 4 frame has been a signature in her versatile career, transitioning seamlessly to radio where she co-hosts Nova FM's national drive show Kate, Tim & Joel with Tim Blackwell and Joel Creasey, showcasing a personality far larger than her exact height suggests.
