Home and Away’s Angelina Thomson’s romance with actor boyfriend Lachlan away from Kirby Aramoana

The soap star joined Home and Away back in 2022 to play the keyboardist and lyricist of the band Lyrik – Kirby Aramoana, after the actress got her start in Australian theatre

Angelina Thomson has been incredibly busy since taking on the role of Kirby Aramoana in Home and Away.

The character has found herself at the centre of Summer Bay’s latest scandal – the Stunning Organics explosion.

But when she’s not working on the soap opera, she travels a lot with her actor boyfriend.

How old is Angelina and where is she from?

Angelina, who is about 27 years old, was born and raised on Australia’s Gold Coast. Her mother is from the Cook Islands, and her father is from Australia.

She has talked about being of Mori descent and the value of witnessing her culture on television.

The actress cited her love of dance as the inspiration for her interest in acting.

“I think my cultural dancing is what initially sparked it,” she said to thefamereporter.com.

I was introduced to performing very young since my mother, who is from the Cook Islands, started teaching me how do Hula as soon as I could stand up.

When she was a child, she recalls watching Home and Away and not spotting anyone who resembled her.

According to her statement to Stuff, “Every night at 7 o’clock, my family would watch Home And Away, and the little Gold Coast girl I was back then was like, ‘How can I do that? How can I access Home And Away?

And now, at the age of 26, I’m there, however many years later. It gives me a little pinch-me feeling. I’m not lying.

Later, in 2022, she made an appearance on Home and Away as Kirby Aramoana, the keyboardist and lyricist for the band Lyrik.

She recalled them as having traditional names, saying the grace before meals, singing, and speaking Mori.

“Prior to that, I had considered that I might need to temporarily relocate to New Zealand in order to attend auditions for shows like Shortland Street.

But now that I might have that opportunity in Australia, where I grew up, I feel quite grateful.

“I shed a tear on my first day on site. I just broke down in tears. ‘I can’t believe this is happening,’ I exclaimed. The wish has come true. I feel so fortunate to be here.

What shows has Angelina acted in?

Angelina graduated with a Bachelor of Musical Theatre from the Queensland Conservatorium, Griffith University in 2016.

She made her professional debut as a swing in the Australian premiere production of Beautiful: The Carole King Musical.

The actress also joined the rock musical, Rent, at the Sydney Opera House and part of Opera Australia’s 2019 production of West Side Story on Sydney Harbour.

She continued her stage career and played Megan Jones in the play PUFFS.

Angelina appeared in an episode of the TV mini series Wakefield, playing a dancer in 2021.

Angelina spotted the chance to work in her native country when the Paratas joined the soap opera in 2019 as the series’ first Mori family.

The persona traveled to Summer Bay with her lover, Bob Forsyth, and made friends with Eden Fowler and Remi Carter before the three of them formed a band.

Shortly later, she parted up with her lover, and Theo Poulos took his position in the band.

Who is Angelina’s boyfriend?

Angelina is in a relationship with her boyfriend Lachlan Dearing. The couple have been together since February 2022.

She first shared a picture of them together on her Instagram on 9 March 2022, writing: “Very happy. Very lucky.”

Lachlan celebrated their one year anniversary earlier this year, saying: “1 year anniversary with my love! You’re such an incredible human and I’m so lucky to call you mine! I love you so so much! I can’t wait for many more!! @angelinathomson”.

He is an actor and is currently on the international tour of Hamilton.

The couple enjoy travelling together and recently flew to New York to soak up the summer weather.
