Honours and awards
In the 2007 Queen's Birthday Honours, Milne was appointed an Officer of the New Zealand Order of Merit, for services to broadcasting and the community.

"'It's no coincidence that this has happened at the time of the 30th anniversary of Fair Go. The honour is not only for the time I spent on Fair Go, but it's also for all the people who've been part of the show over the years. It's a remarkable show that's lasted a fantastically long time, and it's astonishing how many have worked on it.' - Kevin Milne"

He also won two Qantas Media Awards for Best Presenter.

Milne lives in the Kapiti Coast near Wellington. He had a valve replacement as part of heart surgery in October 2004, and was diagnosed with a brain tumour in mid-2009, which required surgery the following year. In September 2020, Milne announced that he had been diagnosed with prostate cancer.
