April Rose Pengilly (Neighbours’ Chloe Brennan) takes the bins out with Takaya Honda (David Tanaka) and Matty Wilson (Aaron Brennan). Her fairytale wedding in a castle, backstage Kylie moments, growing up on tour with INXS royalty, plus what a Neighbours revival could really look like.
In this episode, April opens up about:
• her fairytale wedding in a European castle with her husband, Adam
• arriving on Neighbours as a young actor from Sydney, feeling lonely at first, and the moment she found her confidence
• growing up on the road with her dad, Kirk Pengilly, touring the world with INXS
• the backstage encounters, including Kylie Minogue
• her upcoming horror film and stepping into a darker, more intense role
• her daily routines, rituals and mindset, and why structure keeps her grounded
• the hilarious story of her first audition, which accidentally turned into an awkward flirtation with the actor who later became her on-screen brother
• returning for the reboot and why it felt completely different to her original era
• the reality of Sydney real estate and why it’s getting harder for creatives to build a life there
• her love for Neighbours fans, and the responsibility she’s always felt to stay connected and give back
