Her personality Felicity Newman was tragically injured in a catastrophic vehicle accident on the route to her wedding, leaving her fiancé by alone at the altar.
At the epicentre of a famous Home and Away accident is Jacqui Purvis.
She was seriously injured in a car accident on the route to her wedding to her fiancé Tane Parata.
Her life is far less dramatic when she isn’t watching the soap opera, though.
Where is Jacqui originally from?
Jacqui had resided in Melbourne before travelling across the Australian coastline.
She started out as a dancer and took classes at a young age, but dancing wasn’t her sole interest.
She thought on the acting business and discussed how difficult it is because there is frequently rejection.
Where does Jacqui live now?
In order to play Felicity Newman, Jacqui relocated from Melbourne to Sydney in 2021, where she eventually found work couch surfing. She stored everything she owned in her car.
Soon after, Matt Evans joined the cast to play Theo Poulos, Leah Patterson’s nephew.
At the Christmas party for the programme, the couple struck up a conversation and decided to live together.
They originally resided together in Sydney’s south-east, but they have now moved to the Coogee beach district.
During the course of their two years as housemates, the friends have become more honest about the situation and who they are as people.
They didn’t sit down to discuss any dos and don’ts, according to Matt.
He admitted to Australia’s TV Week magazine, “We’ve never actually discussed our living condition or home rules.
“We take care of our own cleaning without even having to mention it. Whenever there is ever an issue, we either deal with it head-on or we choose to ignore it.”
Jacqui did, however, playfully acknowledge that Matt has a propensity to damage her plants.
They have a wonderful work-life balance, according to the actress, because they are aware of one another’s demands for downtime. She continued by saying that having a co-actor makes it easier for them to run lines.
What other acting projects has Jacqui acted in?
Before joining Home and Away, Jacqui had an extremely busy schedule. She received multiple honours for her performance as Callie in the 2018 movie Sydney, including Best Actress at the Los Angeles Film Awards.
She performed in the independent film A Lion Returns, which was nominated for an AACTA.
