In 2010, Georgie Parker stepped into the role of Roo Stewart, and she has truly embraced the role of Alf’s daughter.
The Australian actress has become a weekly fixture on Irish television screens, but little is known about her personal life.
Georgie has been married to the man of her dreams for almost two decades and has one kid outside of the soap.
She has previously spoken openly about her experience with scoliosis, a disease she was diagnosed with as a youngster.
How old is Georgie and where is she from?
Georgie is 56 years old, having been born on December 16, 1964. She was born and raised in Sydney, New South Wales.
At the age of 13, she was diagnosed with scoliosis and was fitted with a brace by her orthopaedic specialist.
Georgie compares the disease to a fingerprint, explaining that it is unique to each individual.
Her body is harmed, and she has lost three inches in height as a result.
Her rib cage shifts out of position, but she claims that it happens gradually, despite the fact that it sounds uncomfortable.
She enjoys swimming to keep her body strong and began ocean swimming during the epidemic, which has been beneficial to her mental health as well.
Georgie dislikes it when others speak to scoliosis as “handicapped” or “deformed,” preferring to refer to the disease as a challenge.
Who is Georgie’s husband?
The star of Home and Away is married to playwright Steve Worland, whom she married in December 1999.
Georgie claims that before she married, she couldn’t seem to find the proper partner with whom she could imagine herself raising a family.
However, when she met Steve at the age of 33, she changed her mind because she believed he would be someone she could trust.
She prefers to keep their relationship quiet, claiming that it is her job and shouldn’t interfere with their lives.
Georgie explained that while she is more introverted and he is more lively, the pair balances each other out.
Their long-lasting marriage is due to the distance they give one other, with her claiming that doing things apart is good.
How many children does Georgie have?
Georgie and her husband Steve have one child, a 21-year-old daughter named Holly. The actress has expressed her desire to be a mother.
Her and her husband’s favourite pastime is spending time at home with Holly and their pet cat, she confessed.
Georgie added that, while her family brings her the most joy, she prefers to keep them out of the spotlight and off of her social media.
Holly should be known for who she is, not for having a famous mother, she says.
