New faces on Home and Away

21st April 2026

Fresh faces, the same home you know and love

Take a look at the new arrivals calling the Bay home
Fans have been treated to a sneak peek of what’s coming up in Summer Bay, with the release of a special 90-second teaser highlighting some of Home and Away’s must-watch moments in the months ahead.

 

Alongside joyous and heartwarming moments with some of the Bay’s most familiar faces are some new arrivals ready to make their mark on the coastal town, including Australian acting royalty, Nicole da Silva. 

 

Nicole’s character, Amelia Carlisle – a new doctor arriving in the Bay – is seen for the first time in the new teaser. Will Amelia find her place in the Bay? Tune in to see what lies ahead for the town’s newest resident doctor, with her on-screen debut coming soon.

 

Yabbie Creek police station is also welcoming a new recruit when Richie Brezniak (Rocco Forrester-Sach) joins the team. Rookie Richie’s enthusiasm is set to test Senior Constable Cash Newman’s (Nicholas Cartwright) patience, and off-duty, he is poised to make waves with Abby Fowler (Hailey Pinto). Is Abby about to fall for the Bay’s newest heartthrob?

 

Meanwhile, single mum Harper Matheson (Jessica Redmayne) may be ready for a change in her love life, sharing a romantic kiss with a fresh new face on the beach. Who is Harper’s new beau, and could she finally have found the man of her dreams?

 

And amid the new arrivals, is the Bay gearing up for one of its toughest goodbyes yet? After being exonerated of the drug possession charge that sent him on the run to Western Australia, Tane Parata (Ethan Browne) has been viciously attacked in prison. A look ahead shows a devastated Mackenzie (Emily Weir) keeping vigil by his hospital bedside, willing him to pull through.

 

There’s love, loss and surprises aplenty coming to the shores of Home and Away. Welcome home to Australia’s #1 drama.
