Say hello to the Bay’s new VJ
There's a new VJ to hit the bay after current VJ, child actor Felix Dean, finished filming after nearly seven years.
VJ - the son of Leah Patterson-Baker’s son, by ex Vinnie Patterson - will now be played by Matthew Little.
"We've got a new bloke, Matt, who's started in the role. He is really lovely and eager. I think he's going to be really, really popular as well. VJ does leave the screens for a while and then he comes back definitely grown up! He's quite a big boy now, as physically they wanted him to grow up a bit and look a little bit older," Ada Nicodemou has said speaking to Digital Spy.
Dan Ewing, who plays Heath in the Australian hit series, first stirred the rumours that the actor would take a role in Home and Away in the beginning of July - as the actor is Matthew’s real life brother in law.
