This year, Home And Away has been introducing hot newbies left, right, and centre, and Jacqui Purvis is the latest to join the group.
Is there anyone in Summer Bay who is just like the rest of us? We haven’t seen confirmation of that yet.
Felicity Newman is a no-holds-barred firecracker who is about to get entangled in a love relationship with Tane, another equally gorgeous local. Felicity Newman is a no-filter firecracker of a woman who is set to find herself in a romantic entanglement with equally attractive resident Tane. Jacqui is joining the beautiful people of the famous coastal town as Felicity Newman, a no-filter firecracker of a woman who is set to find herself in a romantic entanglement with equally attractive resident Tane (Ethan Browne).
Tane rushes with Felicity to the nightclub to get over his break-up funk with Ziggy (Sophie Dillman).
After a little Coyote Ugly-style dancing on the bar, the pair returns to Felicity’s apartment.
However, when Tane attempts to sneak out of Felicity’s room the next morning, he runs into the one person he didn’t want to see: Cash, Felicity’s brother and flatmate (Nicholas Cartwright).
Who is Jacqui Purvis, exactly?
You may recognise the actress from Neighbours, a rival soap opera.
Jacqui played Melissa Lohan, Chloe Brennan’s ex-girlfriend, in a few episodes of Ramsay Street in 2019. (April Rose Pengilly).
When Chloe’s ex came up at her door, she wasn’t happy to see her because their relationship had ended tragically, but with little support from her family, she decided to try again.
Mel went away from Erinsborough permanently after things didn’t work out.
Jacqui has also been in the TV series Mammon and Black Comedy, as well as the forthcoming film A Lion Returns.
