In December, Daily Mail Australia exclusively revealed that Kate had split from cyber security expert John Bell, 25, after a whirlwind romance of less than a year.
'Kate is single. Lockdown is to blame,' a source said.
'Kate and John haven't seen each other since January, even though borders to Victoria opened a few weeks ago. She hasn't mentioned wanting to visit him once.'

The star seems to be in a much better place than she was late last year when she spent time in a rehab clinic to address her dependence on alcohol.
The media personality recently reassured listeners she was 'doing well' and would be back on her Nova FM drive show in a few weeks' time.
'Hi all, I'll be away for a few more weeks,' she wrote on Instagram, addressing her extended absence from the late-afternoon slot.

'But in the meantime make sure you tune in to the guys who will be back live in the studio from 4pm Monday! By the way, I'm doing well and excited for 2023.'
Kate announced in October she was stepping away from the Kate, Tim and Joel show.
It was later revealed she was seeking treatment for alcohol dependency, after Daily Mail Australia obtained photos of her outside a rehab facility.
Ricki-Lee Coulter has been filling in during her absence.
