Home and Away has become known as a breeding ground for talent in the Aussie TV and film industry, and this case in point is no surprise.

River Jarvis stole the screen and our hearts when he made his first appearance on the hit soap, and from that moment on, fans were hook, line and sinkered, to say the least.

Arriving in The Bay as the illegitimate son of Dean Thompson (Patrick O’Connor), who discovered he was a dad after his former flame Amber Simmons (Maddy Jevic) found out where he was living.

He certainly made a startling impression on Dean – and the rest of Summer Bay’s locale.
