has been rocked by some recently, but one that has is with Tane Parata’s (Ethan Browne) baby. Considering his ex-wife Felicity Newman (Jacqui Purvis) just passed away, Tane isn’t in any state to start up a or think about becoming a father. There’s also the Summer Bay curse which sees new parents leave the show once their baby enters the world.
Of course, there are quite a few theories about whether or not Harper carries the baby to term, with some leaked snaps from the set showing the character filming with a baby bump just last week. “Tane, Dana and Harper – yes, she is still filming [while visibly] pregnant. We see this in five to six months,” a fan wrote alongside the photos.
“It’s crazy as they are dragging Harper’s pregnancy out longer than the other characters’ pregnancies,” she added. “We know once [characters] have a baby they normally leave the show. Harper still has two years [on her] contract left I believe, and Tane - he signs new contracts often as he’s already done his three-year contract, so not sure when he is going to leave! “I think something at birth will go wrong maybe before birth or just after birth, or maybe the producers change their minds and want to keep a baby on the show, but I very much doubt that as it’s hard using babies on the show, plus the budget as they have to use so many babies for it.
” She went on to explain that producers often use sets of twin babies to play one character due to strict filming requirement.
