Home and Away’s Jacqui Purvis’ surprising admission about the show
The star reveals how long she is planning on staying in Summer Bay.
Jacqui Purvis, who played Felicity Newman on Home and Away, shot to stardom in 2021 when she moved to Summer Bay. A variety of dramatic scenarios involving the firecracker character swiftly developed, including her being kidnapped, discovering her boyfriend Tane Parata (Ethan Browne) stabbed, and her life now hanging in the balance following a vehicle accident.
Fans have been speculating about whether Jacqui’s character would return the next year or if she intends to follow a succession of exits from the program this year. She discusses how long she wants to remain on the program, says she would enjoy a “dramatic exit,” and explains why playing a bride was “strange” in an interview with Yahoo Lifestyle.
Felicity is depicted in a potentially fatal predicament while stuck inside a burning automobile in the trailers for the next season return. Jacqui says that if she had the option to select how she would leave the program, she would want a “dramatic death,” but she can’t predict whether Felicity would survive.
“I’d want to be eliminated. She tells us, “I want a really dramatic death, like a terrible, intense, horrible, like [death] everyone is sobbing.
Jacqui dodges the question when asked how long she intends to stay in Summer Bay, ostensibly to avoid giving away any upcoming plotlines.
Who is to say? You receive this role and this opportunity, and as an actor, it’s fantastic. A performer’s dream, you get to act every day. And maintaining a steady work is quite uncommon in this field, she adds.
The celebrity continues by saying that having the opportunity to do what “she loves” every day is such a blessing.
But she confesses, “I have no idea if I’m going to remain on; we’ll have to see how everyone feels in the future.
Given that Jacqui has never been married before, she finds it unusual to prepare for a wedding. Felicity and Tane’s wedding was the focus of the Home and Away season finale.
Jacqui shares her ‘really weird’ moment
She believes it was interesting to get a “practice run” to see what she could enjoy in the future because she helped choose the wedding dress.
Because it’s such an important point in someone’s life and she has never been married before, she says, “It felt cool, but also incredibly bizarre.” I felt as though I had nothing to connect with. I don’t have any references at my disposal. Therefore, I was attempting to determine how you might behave in a wedding.
She explains, “But on the other hand, I guess Felicity has never been married, so you kinda just use it in your own experience.”
The star admits it was “really weird”, and says that it was similar to a regular wedding in that there were many dress fittings before the big day finally arrived.
“It’s such a huge moment,” she sums up.
