She’s one of the Aussie soap’s sexiest stars and actress Jacqui Purvis is showing no signs of slowing down. Let’s take a look the star’s life away from Summer Bay…
Since joining the cast of the Australian soap opera last year, Jacqui Purvis has delighted viewers as the blonde bombshell Felicity Newman.
Since moving to Summer Bay, her character has experienced a number of dramatic stories, including being suspected of stalking Tane before being kidnapped by the true stalker.
She has also experienced grief over her father’s passing.
However, the stunning actress lives a much more glitzy life away from the cameras.
The Daily Star gives you an inside look at the star behind Felicity Newman, including her passion project for mental health, sexy swimsuit photos, and fun nights out with her co-star roommate.
Mental Health Battle
Actress Jacqui made a startling career decision when she decided to write and perform in her own short film after witnessing a friend fight mental illness and struggle with suicidal thoughts.
The fan favourite from Summer Bay made her writing debut on the challenging short film Voicemails Last Forever. “The main subject of my short film is depression. Mental health, bereavement, and suicide in particular.
“And it’s very significant to me because all I truly want to do is reduce the stigma associated with mental illness and suicide. In the trailer for the movie, Jacqui remarked that it was shameful, taboo, and we shouldn’t talk about it. “
She continued by saying that her friend’s life and the people who endured the Covid-19 lockdowns served as inspirations for her.
It was written “for my friend. Therefore, it’s somewhat about him and his life. And when I heard his story, I was deeply moved because, fortunately, I don’t experience those issues, such as suicidal thoughts.
“I think a lot of individuals truly suffered from going through Covid. Due to our confinement and possible lack of friends or family, anxiety and mental health problems surfaced.
Co-star Roommate
Although relationships might be tumultuous among Summer Bay’s residents, it sounds like things are much more peaceful for the show’s main characters.
Even though Felicity Newman joined the soap opera’s cast only last year, the star has already developed such strong friendships with her co-stars that she has moved in with one of them.
Jacqui disclosed that she currently lives with fellow Bay newbie Matt Evans, who plays Theo Poulos, in an interview with TV Week with the help of her on-screen brother Nicholas Cartwright, who plays police officer Cash Newman.
“Matt Evans and I are having a blast being roommates,” she said. “He is one of my favourite people in the whole world.”
The roomies have already shared some sweet posts on Instagram commemorating their friendship, with Jacqui throwing Matt a birthday celebration over the summer complete with cards, presents and balloons.
