MAJOR SOAP SHOCK: Two Home and Away Stars Confirmed as Real-Life Siblings

In a delightful revelation for fans of Summer Bay, it has been confirmed that two stars who appeared on the long-running soap opera Home and Away are siblings in real life. The latest addition to the list of real-life relatives in the Home and Away family is the connection between fan-favorite police officer Nicholas Cartwright (who plays Senior Constable Cash Newman) and his real-life sister, actress Zara Zoe.

Cartwright, who joined the cast in 2021 as the town’s beloved and highly professional police officer, was later joined on set by his sister, Zara Zoe, who played the recurring guest role of Millie Hudson in 2022.

Millie’s storyline saw her involved in a major car crash with Dr. Logan Bennett (Harley Bonner), and she subsequently spent time in Summer Bay recovering. The connection between the two actors marks a rare occurrence where real-life siblings have shared screen time on the Australian drama, even if only briefly in a professional capacity.

This news confirms a long-running pattern of family ties on the Home and Away set, which also famously includes cousins Chris Hemsworth (Kim Hyde) and Luke Van Os (Xander Delaney).

The discovery of Cartwright and Zoe’s shared family link has thrilled fans, adding an extra layer of behind-the-scenes family history to the show’s legacy.
