‘It’s the only way we’ll get out of here’: Kate Langbroek says she hopes her family are DEPORTED from Italy after nasty run-in with the police during coronavirus lockdown
After enduring a month in COVID-19 lockdown with her family in Bolgna, Italy, Kate Langbroek has reached her wits end.
Speaking to FOX FM’s Hughsey and Ed on Wednesday, Kate, 54, said she’s so frustrated with Italy’s extreme coronavirus rules that she hopes her family are deported from Italy so they can return home Down Under.
Kate, who regularly appears on the show to give updates on life in Bologna, revealed that her husband Peter, 44, recently had a run-in with local police for supposedly breaking lockdown rules by riding his bike.

‘[The police] held him up for 40 minutes,’ Kate said of the incident.
‘They basically interrogated him and gave him a piece of paper -which he signed, even though it was in Italian – and he couldn’t understand it. It said he’s being sued by the police,’ she continued.
‘I laughed and said: ‘Good, I hope they deport us. It’s the only way we can get out of here!” Kate added.

The mother-of-four went on to reveal that she and Peter also had a run-in with police on Good Friday.
The couple were walking to the shops to buy Easter eggs when they were stopped by police who said they couldn’t be outside together.
‘I was so annoyed. I hate the one size fits all rule,’ raged Kate.

‘I said: ‘I’ve got four children at home, that’s a lot of food, that’s a lot of carrying on my own. They were a bit surprised by how aggressive I was,” she mused.
Kate and Peter relocated from Melbourne to Italy with their children in early 2019 for what was supposed to be a ‘family gap year’.
They have since extended their stay for another 12 months.
