27, Olympia Valance is the \u2018Neighbours\u2019 girl next door since 2014. When she reprised the role of Paige Smith for the show’s 35th anniversary in 2020, viewers couldn\u2019t resist tunning into the soap opera again. Well, she owns that charm.<\/p>\n

The Aussie actress grew up watching the show and her older half-sister, Holly Valance, who portrayed pretty and self-assured Felicity “Flick” Scully in \u2018Neighbours.\u2019 She wasn\u2019t only satisfied with commercials and modeling assignments. Olympia yearned to fit on the screen of an Australian soap opera, \u2018Neighbours.\u2019<\/p>\n

The Soap Opera Changed Everything<\/strong><\/h2>\n

At 21, she underwent over the four auditions for the role. It was a tiring job, but she accumulated all her zeal to follow the footsteps of Holly. She knew if she was on \u2018Neighbours,\u2019 she wouldn\u2019t have to pass by her struggling phase once more. When Olympia was summoned for the role, she first rang good news with Holly.<\/p>\n

Olympia was accurate. The soap opera treasured her nominations for Most Popular New Talent at the Logie Awards. What\u2019s more, the UK lingerie brand \u2018Gossard\u2019 honored Olympia as its new face. She was over the moon, working in both of her dream project: the soap opera and \u2018Gossard.\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cThe last year has been a whirlwind and to work with such an established name as Gossard is a dream comes true. I absolutely love working on Neighbors<\/em> and the fact that I am able to come over to England and do an incredible campaign like this is a credit to the show’s following, both here and down under.”<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Following the Australian chocolate bar Cherry Ripe, as well as the Jeep Marquee\u2019s offer for ambassador, California-based agency Roar, wasted no time to seal the contract with her. It\u2019s the same agency that looked after elite professional actors, Liam, and Chris Hemsworth.<\/p>\n

In 2018, she bided a heartfelt goodbye to her favorite show, \u2018Neighbors.\u2019 The entertainment chain industry didn\u2019t let her plan holidays. Instead, she occupied her in sports drama Playing For Keeps, the sixteenth season of Dancing with the Stars, and a judge on Australia’s Got Talent: Challengers & Champions. Thus, she enjoys a ballpark net worth of $1 million, and the credit goes to a daytime television show, \u2018Neighbours\u2019, which ran over 30 years.<\/p>\n

Dating An AFL Footballer<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Its unbelievable how her sports drama, \u2018Playing for Keeps\u2019 has an uncanny resemblance. She plays Tahlia, a fianc\u00e9 of the captain of an Australian Rules football team. And off the screen, she is in a relationship with AFL Footballer Tom Bellchambers. But she says it isn\u2019t as dramatic as the TV screen. She finds it funny as she shares a similar love-life connection in both.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s kind of like life imitating art. Quite comical.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWho would have thought? It\u2019s funny because I don\u2019t know, it can\u2019t really help (for my role) but a lot of things we did in the show last season are quite factual,\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

During the rage of the global pandemic, the couple is dwelling in the Daylesford\/Hepburn region, far away from Melbourne\u2019s hectic schedules. They are enjoying one another company by working together in household chores, gardening, and chicken farm. Normally, she hadn\u2019t been able to \u2018get this much time at home.\u2019 Somehow, the duo has learned to stay positive and motivational most of the time amidst the groundhog days.<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2026I used to get a lot of my energy and motivation from having a super structured routine and running at 100 miles an hour, so it\u2019s required a totally different way of looking at things to keep me positive and upbeat, especially when things start to feel a bit like groundhog day!\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
