The River Boys have returned to Home And Away, with newcomer Joshua Orpin leading the charge as the latest bad boy Rory.
Summer Bay residents have met their fair share of River Boys over the years, but viewers will meet the newbie when Mali tracks his brother down to free him from the Allen siblings.

In the latest teaser, Rory is seen with Mali and Dingo (JK Kazzi), however it is believed he won’t be in the show for very long. While we’ve only seen a glimpse of the newcomer, what do we know about his actor Joshua Orpin?
Despite being born and raised in Melbourne Australia, his role in Home and Away is an opportunity for Joshua to return home after working overseas in countless roles.
Joshua is best recognised for his role as Conner Kent otherwise known as Superboy in the second season of Titans, a DC Comics’ action-adventure television series. The show was filmed in Canada, where Joshua has previously revealed to 7News he felt “homesick quite a lot.”

“I feel like the US stuff is big and exciting, but I think that I just really had this strong desire to be a part of the Australian film and TV landscape,” he told the publication.
Aside from Titans, the 30-year-old has starred in The Neon Spectrum, and The Blake Mysteries.
And while Joshua is bound to steal hearts as the latest River Boy member, Summer Bay fans will be disappointed to discover someone has already stolen his heart.
Based on an Instagram post, Joshua met his partner Sally in 2014 and celebrated ten years together in April 2024.

“This professional commitment quickly blossomed into a reluctant friendship, and eventually something much more than that… Permanent housemates,” he wrote on Instagram. “10 long years (and 19 contract renewals) later we have never been happier!”
