In a move that’s taken Home and Away fans completely by surprise, Jacqui Purvis — best known as Felicity Newman — has officially confirmed that she’s married. The 29-year-old actress quietly tied the knot with a mysterious Australian businessman earlier this month, ending weeks of speculation and sending social media into a frenzy.

A Secret Coastal Ceremony

According to insiders, the ceremony was as private as it was romantic. Jacqui reportedly exchanged vows in an intimate seaside setting, surrounded only by her closest family members and a small circle of lifelong friends. “It was simple, elegant — very Jacqui,” a source shared. “She didn’t want media attention or paparazzi. She wanted the day to be about love.”

The actress, known for her down-to-earth personality, kept the wedding under wraps until after filming wrapped for the current Home and Away season. The reveal caught even her most dedicated fans off guard, especially after she dismissed earlier engagement rumors.

The Mystery Man

Little is known about Jacqui’s new husband, other than that he’s a “successful Sydney businessman.” Sources differ on his line of work — some say property development, while others hint at a career in tech — but all agree he’s far removed from the entertainment world. “He’s very private, which suits Jacqui perfectly,” one insider said.

The pair reportedly met through mutual friends several years ago, keeping their relationship out of the public eye while Jacqui’s on-screen life as Felicity remained full of drama and heartbreak.

Fan Reactions and Future Plans

Fans first noticed something was up when Jacqui appeared in promotional photos wearing a delicate gold band on her left hand. At the time, she brushed off the jewelry as “just an accessory.” Now, the confirmation has sent Home and Away enthusiasts flooding her Instagram page with messages of congratulations — and plenty of curiosity.

“You kept this quiet, Jacqui! Congratulations!” one fan commented, while another begged, “We need wedding photos!”

Though the actress hasn’t shared any images from the big day, insiders hint that an exclusive feature could appear in a major Australian magazine soon.

A New Chapter On and Off Screen

Jacqui’s on-screen alter ego, Felicity Newman, has survived car crashes, heartbreak, and emotional turmoil in Home and Away. Now, fans can’t help but wonder whether the actress’s real-life love story will influence her character’s next chapter.

For now, Jacqui Purvis is keeping the details close to her heart — and fans wouldn’t have it any other way. After all, few could write a more romantic twist than this one.
