Katarina Chapman

Also ahead in Summer Bay, Kat Chapman has second thoughts after starting to let Dylan Carter back into her affections.

The pair will share a kiss later this month and it quickly leads to more as they start meeting up for secret liaisons outside of work hours.

Turning on the charm, Dylan tells Kat (Pia Miller) that he lied about selling the block of land that they used to own together years ago - he actually still has it and wants her to consider reuniting properly so they can build a life together.

Although Kat is tempted when Dylan (Jeremy Lindsay Taylor) speaks about the dream home they always talked about, she also reminds him that she can't forgive and forget his past mistreatment of her so easily.

Dylan promises that he can be patient and see how things go, but is he being truthful?

This is a general article on Pia Miller (Kat) in the Sunday Telegraph, but it briefly mentions an upcoming storyline for her, so I thought it best to put it in this spoiler thread, for anyone interested (not sure if people can open this link, so I have copied the text of the article below as well):

http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/ent...95fc29?login=1


Home And Away star Pia Miller will shed her glamour image for dark new storyline as a cop in crisis


PIA Miller is on the verge of a breakdown and she couldn’t be happier about it.

Fans of the Logie-nominated actor will know how resilient her TV alter ego, Summer Bay siren and resident cop, Kat Chapman, has had to be in Miller’s first year on air — shot and wounded one minute, clinging for dear life off a cliff the next.

It’s bread-and-butter stuff for soapie screenwriters but meaty material for the former model, turned ambitious small screen star who is positively thrilled about the “dark places” she goes in a looming storyline, to play out later this month, on Seven’s Home And Away.

Smouldering for our lens, as she poses up in the royal suite of Double Bay’s luxurious InterContinental hotel, it’s hard to imagine why anyone would welcome the chance to go from this hot to not; but the Chilean-born, 32-year-old was excited to “go there.”

“To be in the make-up chair and to have a conversation with the team where they say ‘we are not putting any make-up on, no nothing, in fact we’re going to put dark shadows under your eyes and leave all your little blemishes out’ was the most vulnerable I’d ever been and it was so liberating,” Miller tells News Corp Australia.

“To be in a creative space, go there and not give a...[insert your own expletive here] about the aesthetic, to completely focus on the internal turmoil, the pain, the love, or the lack of it,” she says, “was so, so great. It’s one of the best storylines I’ve ever done. I felt so exposed but it really served the story, so it was cool.”

Lucy Addario, the show’s executive producer, was keen to explore what a career woman like Kat would be without the armour of her police uniform; plotting for the good cop to face a personal and professional crossroad, unravels and then dramatically hands in her badge.

Testing Miller’s mettle was also part of the plan.

“I knew she could do it, but I was so proud. She did so well,” Addario says.

“Pia has worked really hard at her craft, especially this storyline. She took it to the next level here, she really did.”

For anyone looking for a sign of the diva antics made up for a cheap headline in a gossip magazine last month, this endorsement of the self-effacing Miller will surely disappoint.

The unsourced story alleged the Logie nominee for this year’s best new talent had earned the ire of her co-stars for playing the snooty ice queen on set and committing the greatest crime of all, not socialising with her workmates after hours.

If she had time as a busy working single mother with two young sons to care about such silliness, she could have been forgiven for being wounded by the claims; vehemently denied at the time by her Channel 7 bosses, in a rare public statement of support.

Instead, she says, the close cast and crew on the show simply laughed it off.

“We are and will continue to be a community on that show,” Miller says, matter-of-factly.

“During my time, long after my time there, that’s just the kind of place it is. It’s a home, it’s a family, so as a collective, we all just had a really good giggle about it.”

Addario was “gutted for Pia because she just works so hard and it sounds so cliched but we are a family. I just couldn’t see where that [rumour] had come from.”

Miller’s real family — including sons Isaiah, 13 and Lennox, 10; his father and her former AFL-player husband Brad; as well as new boyfriend and model, Tyson Mullane — have been her focus and foundation away from work.

Determined not to unsettle her children when she first took the job back in late 2014, she explains the exhaustive efforts she went to in the early days; commuting between the Sydney production and their former home in Melbourne.

“If we were shooting on location in Palm Beach, they were early starts. I’d have a couple of those during the week, then there’d be studio days but if we wrapped early, I’d jump on a plane and get down there [to Melbourne]. Often I was flying back the same night to do it all again the following morning, but it was literally for think like being there for dinner, or to pick them up for school if I was able to be there on time. To got to a concert they had, or a play...those little things made all the difference.”

By the end of 2015, however, Miller’s 10-year marriage was over, and she made plans to move her sons to Sydney for the start of a new school year (sharing custody with Brad, who also moved north to continue co-parenting both boys).

Nine months after the shock split, Miller says “there have been sad times and hard times” for her sons, “with their friends, or having to say goodbye to me or say goodbye to Brad after a great week or weekend, but all in all they’ve made some really good friends and integrated into their own little school teams. Other parents have really included my boys, knowing that they are the new kids...birthday parties, picking them up and taking them to sport...so I feel really supported by that school community, my family and my people, it’s been really great.”

Despite sharing sexy snapshots from her Bali holiday with boyfriend Mullane last week, Miller keeps the intimate details of their romance private.

“Obviously it’s no secret I am in a relationship but we just really enjoy our time together and have lots of fun and support each other. That’s for us, but it’s been a joy; we’ve had an incredible time.”

Ask about her sons and this proud mumma can’t say enough.

“The most random things make us so happy. We’ve got this really cool garage that has this nice ramp so we all just go down there and see what kind of tricks we can do. I find myself doing it as well, thinking ‘this is probably a really bad idea,’” she laughs, “but we put the music on in the car and just skate around.”

But it’s not all fun and games, admitting her “kids would probably say that I’m a bit strict.”

“I love seeing my boys do their chores and initially it was a chore for them and it was something they had to do. They would roll their eyes and say ‘ugh, do I have to stack the dishwasher?’ but now, particularly now that we live, just me and them, they do it without thinking about it, questioning it. Isaiah will get up early and go to school, I’ll walk into his room and his bed will be done and everything is put away and I’m like,” punching the air, “yes!”

Taking inspiration from her own single mother, fashion designer Angelica Blanco (who moved her three children to Australia by herself from Vina del Mar, Chile in 1986), she is raising her sons, as she was, to dream big, then hustle hard to make it happen.
Falling pregnant at 19, Miller says, proved all the motivation she needed to succeed.

“The will to be the best that I could be for him and also for myself, with my own dreams, my own aspirations. There was just a lot of determination there and that’s still a massive part of my character today.”

Miller sees all that life is throwing at her right now as rich experience she can channel back into her work.

“I see is like an artist having a palette of paint. The more colours you have on that palette, the more you can create, the different shades you can bring into your work. It turns out I’ve ended up with quite a colourful palette,” she laughs, “and yeah, I’m grateful for every single experience. Some of them have been really tough, some of them have been really beautiful and sweet, but they’ve all helped in some way.”

* Home And Away airs 7pm weekdays on Channel 7.

Home and Away's Kat Chapman is hit by a panic attack later this month after deciding to call time on her career in the police force.

We all know that Kat (Pia Miller) hasn't exactly done things by the book since joining Summer Bay, but the final straw comes when she realises that she's embroiled in yet more criminal activity.

Kat receives a shock when Ash (George Mason) tells her that the recent $50,000 which was invested in the garage came from Andy Barrett, making it dirty money.

This is terrible news for Kat in light of her own connections to the garage and she's stunned to realise that she's unwittingly become a crooked cop.

Although Kat doesn't want to turn against those she cares about, she also knows that she can't carry on in the police while hiding her knowledge of criminal activity.

Seeing no other way out, Kat hands in her badge and resigns with immediate effect – much to the shock of her friends.

Ash and Billie both step in and urge Kat to change her mind, pointing out that not everything is black and white.

This advice doesn't go down well with Kat, who soon becomes overwhelmed by all the pressure and gets caught in the grip of a panic attack. Has it all become too much for her?

Pia Miller and George Mason’s Kat and Ash patch it up at Palm Beach


EXPECT the Home and Away storylines to continue between Pia Miller and George Mason.

This week on air the pair — who play Kat and Ash — became friends again after recently breaking up over trust issues.

It’s been an on again and off again relationship for the fictional characters and photographs taken by Confidential on the Palm Beach set of the couple this week suggest the drama will continue.

Miller and Mason were snapped walking on the beach after he’d emerged from the surf with his board.

A heated discussion ensued, although Seven keeps details of the storyline a closely guarded secret.
Episodes are filmed generally several months in advance of screening.

Kat and Ash first got together on screen in April when he supported her through a breakup with ex boyfriend Dylan, played by Jeremy Lindsay Taylor. Starting out as friends, the pair gave into temptation and got together.

But the glow was short-lived when Ash’s bad boy past got in the way of their relationship when he embezzled money. That obviously wasn’t a good look given Kat is a police officer.


(I think they got a bit mixed up with that last bit about Ash actually embezzling the money etc!!)

Home and Away's Kat Chapman will be hit with a fresh batch of problems later this month when she is accused of assaulting a stranger.

A new nightmare for Kat (Pia Miller) will kick off after she embarks on a rather daunting chapter, having been forced to resign from her role as a police officer.

Knowing she needs to move forward with her life - and earn an income - Kat takes on a job at Salt, thanks to some help from her friend Phoebe. But as she awkwardly settles into her new lifestyle, she is struck by an unexpected problem - which means her life could get a whole lot worse.

Kat is already feeling uncomfortable after having to serve both ex-boyfriend Ash and ex-boss Sergeant McCarthy at the restaurant, both clearly flummoxed to see her working there. However, despite her determination to prove herself as a waitress, Kat's copper instincts kick in when a rowdy customer starts to behave out of line.

As the man's drunk and inappropriate behaviour intensifies, Kat is forced to ask him to leave. However, the situation escalates when he inappropriately touches Phoebe, before trying to grab Kat, prompting her to instinctively react with her police training.

Kat twists the guy's arm behind him and brutally slams him down on the bench, before he eventually scurries out with a bloody nose. But it's not long before Kat is paying the price for her fairly extreme reaction as Sergeant McCarthy is soon tracking her down.

Kat's ex-colleague informs her that the gentleman she man-handled earlier has made an assault claim and she is soon taken in for questioning. But with Kat facing serious charges, could her life be about to get even worse?

Home and Away's Kat Chapman plays with fire yet again later this month as she embarks on a very forbidden romance with Ash.

Kat (Pia Miller) has been reinstated into the police force by Sergeant McCarthy on the strict condition that she doesn't reunite with Ash... but with this being a soap, she decides it's a good idea to go ahead and do it anyway.

The pair grow closer after Kat discovers that Ash (George Mason) has been supplying drugs to Duncan Stewart's ex-wife Caroline.

Kat is furious over the revelation, until Ash explains that Caroline has Huntington's Disease and he won't let the law stand in the way of helping someone who's suffering.

Ash's heartfelt words make Kat realise just how much she still cares for him and passion flares up between the pair as they finally get back together.

Kat's one condition is that nobody can know about their romance, at least until McCarthy takes her off probation at work.

But in a small town like Summer Bay where word gets around and everyone sees things they shouldn't, how long can Kat and Ash really keep this a secret?

She does soon.

Home and Away's Kat Chapman turns her nosy attentions to the Morgan family next month, as she vows to get to the bottom of their secretive behaviour once and for all.

Kat (Pia Miller) becomes suspicious after a conversation with the Morgans' long-lost sister Raffy Morrison, who finally discovers the family's big secret next month.

Upcoming Home and Away episodes see the Morgans finally come clean with Raffy (Olivia Deeble) by explaining that they're in witness protection as their parents were killed by drug dealers.

They're also quick to fill Raffy in on how much her dad Decker did for them over the years, but it's still all too much for her as she struggles to cope with the revelations.

When Raffy does yet another disappearing act, she goes to see Kat and makes it clear that she's about to reveal a big secret about the Morgans - but their private conversation is interrupted when Phoebe walks in and finds a way to quickly break them apart.

Pia Miller locks lips with Great Gatsby hunk in raunchy new Home and Away scenes


SPOILER ALERT! There is a new heart-throb causing serious heatwaves in Summer Bay.

Confidential spied Pia Miller shooting popular TV soap Home and Away at Sydney’s Barangaroo yesterday..

And it seems her character, Katarina Chapman, has new love in her life.

It seems like only a few weeks ago we spotted the character copying up to Martin ‘Ash’ Ashford on the beach.

With the show shot a few months in advance of episodes going to air, we can reveal her new love interest is played by handsome actor Jake Ryan, 33, known previously for his work on

Underbelly Razor and Baz Luhrman’s The Great Gatsby.

In true soap form, Miller’s character has previously been paired with Dr Nate Cooper — played by Kyle Prior.

In real-life though, the mum-of-two is happily settled with former model boyfriend Tyson Mullane.

It is as yet unclear what kind of drama Ryan’s character will cause on the hit Channel Seven show. Ryan is a former taekwondo champion, who originally dreamt of Olympic glory in Beijing before a serious knee injury forced him to consider another career path.

Confidential understands producers are hoping he will fill the handsome bad boy void left after Stephen Peacocke’s character of Darryl ‘Brax’ Braxton departed the drama in 2015 to pursue acting opportunities in Hollywood.

Home and Away's Kat Chapman faces a tough struggle next week as she deals with the reality of taking on baby Luc's care.

Upcoming scenes see Ash granted custody of little Luc in a surprising decision that leaves VJ, Leah and Irene all stunned.

Although Ash is adamant that he and Kat (Pia Miller) are the best people to take care of Luc, the early signs aren't looking too promising as they find it difficult adjusting to full-time parenthood.

When Luc starts crying shortly after being handed over to Ash, it quickly becomes clear that he, Kat and Patrick are all clueless over what to do.

Kat also starts to fear that she doesn't have much of a maternal touch and it's not long before word of these teething problems gets back to Leah and VJ (Matt Little).

Taking the mature approach by putting Luc first, VJ shows up at the apartment with Billie's rings on a necklace to hang over Luc's bassinet, explaining how it always settles her.

Although VJ's good advice pays off, it's obvious that Kat is still uncomfortable when Ash tells her that this new family set-up is how things are meant to be. Is Kat having major doubts about that?

Home and Away airs these scenes on Tuesday, June 6 at 1.15pm and 6pm on Channel 5.

I can't recall whether they have used the name Robbo before or whether Ash has ever mentioned knowing a Robbo - does anyone else remember? There doesn't appear to be any details as yet of the character Robbo's background etc, only all the photos we have seen of Jake Ryan filming which have mostly been of him with Kat & none of him with Ash - if he was Ash's mate you would think that there would be at least one photo around of them together by now?? (maybe at the beach/surfing?). I think in one of the photos of him & Kat, outside the flat, that Scarlett is also with them, so maybe he is someone from Scarlett's past?? (especially with her being a bit secretive about her past at the moment). Just a guess. As for Kat, after all the trouble she had with the Sarge, & getting suspended from her job for her "association" with Ash before, I would think that she would want to keep clear of any more ex-crims (& Ash won't be too happy if one of his mates hooks up with Kat!).

im only guessing on robbo

SPOILER ALERT: Pia Miller gets roughed up by crazed criminal as she is KIDNAPPED in chilling scenes filmed for Home and Away

She plays Senior Constable Katrina Chapman on Home and Away.

And Pia Miller was spotted filming dramatic scenes for the long-running soap on Tuesday, which involved her popular character being kidnapped.

The 33-year-old was on set at Palm Beach with on-screen love interest Jake Ryan, who is new to the series, guest actor Mirko Grillini and veteran star Ray Meagher.

The stunning actress was seen out of her police uniform and dressed down in a white track jacket, orange singlet and ripped jeans.

She wore her hair back in a messy ponytail and her face was made up with a natural makeup palette.

Her character appeared to wrestle with her kidnapper, played by Mirko Grillini, who was last seen on the series back in 2010 named 'Killer' in a similarly sinister role.

His unshaven character sternly grabbed Pia and lead her towards a police car parked next to a bright yellow dinghy.

The twosome were then seen in a tense argument, with the kidnapper holding Pia against the small boat and pointing his finger in her face.

He then physically pulled her into the passenger seat of the police car, with what appeared to be an injured police officer laid out on the ground next to them

At one dramatic point the kidnapper looked to drag the unconscious or dead cop out of his seat as he motioned for Pia's character to get inside the car.

Dressed in a grey hoodie, black suede jacket and dark blue jeans, the actor emphatically picked up the lifeless body as Pia's character watched on in horror.

She was then seen in the arms of Jake Ryan's character, who recently joined the series...............

I seen on Instagram that she gets pregnant but nothing about whose baby it is or if she goes ahead with it or terminates...

The speculation that Kat is pregnant appears to have started from a person posting on Facebook that they had been on set & took a picture of Kat's (small) 'baby bump' & they also heard Kat & Ash arguing. Like someone has already speculated, this has only just been filmed & with production 5-6 months in advance, and as Kat & Ash have already broken-up on air in Aust, if she is pregnant now, maybe it might not be Ash's baby? - we know that Kat has been filmed with Jake Ryan's character 'Robbo" on numerous occasions, so maybe he is the father..?

Jake/Robbo was filmed last week having a bit of a tantrum in his car.....could Kat's pregnancy be the reason for his anger?? We will have to wait & see!

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz...ntrum-car.html


This is the Facebook post that started the rumour:

Latest H&A spoiler & speculation round-up from BTTB re Kat:


Kat Pregnant?

A picture has emerged this week of Pia Miller filming scenes which appear to show that Kat Chapman is pregnant.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BWKRGKngQHq/

The image was initially shared by a (currently unknown) fan yesterday, before being copied and spread across social media by H&A fan accounts.

Whilst the father is obviously unknown at this stage, it’s highly likely that it will turn out to be Ash (George Mason), who only split up with Kat on-screen last week. If so, then the situation will certainly make things awkward between the former lovers and their respective new partners.

https://i0.wp.com/www.backtothebay.n...-kat.jpg?w=825

We already know that Ash is set to hook up with Tori Morgan (Penny McNamee), with Kat also heading into a relationship with new character “Robbo” (Jake Ryan), who arrives in the bay under strange circumstances in the last week of July.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BV4aWt8D3-N/

https://www.instagram.com/p/BV6tqEzDX87/

…after being kidnapped?

The reveal of Kat’s pregnancy has come only a month after dramatic scenes were filmed appearing to show Kat being kidnapped. Paparazzi pictures showed Kat being forced into a police car against her will, by a menacing character played by Mirko Grillini, with a fellow police officer out cold on the floor beside her.

Long-term viewers may remember Mirko played a similar character, aptly named “Killer” on the show back in 2010, who abducted Gina, Xavier and Martha in an effort to track down Hugo Austin.

Whether Kat’s kidnapping is the result of her involvement with supposed bad-boy “Robbo”, who was later seen desperately trying to find Kat, remains to be seen—though we have to wonder whether she knows what she’s getting into!

SPOILER ALERT: Home and Away's George Mason spotted in an argument with PREGNANT Pia Miller... after kissing Penny McNamee

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz...-newcomer.html

It's the end of the road for Home and Away's Kat Chapman and her boyfriend Ash in tense scenes next month.

Kat (Pia Miller) has tested Ash's patience over the past few weeks with her hesitance over baby Luc being part of their family – and it's all about to come to a head.

As we've already revealed, there's a frightening time ahead for Ash (George Mason) over the next few weeks when he learns that evil Mick Jennings wants to go for custody of his young daughter. Mick even tries to arrange a paternity test to prove that he's the father.

This leaves Ash feeling determined that he needs to thwart Mick by adopting Luc himself, much to the concern of Kat as she worries that it's all too much, too soon.

In the end, Mick's application for a paternity test is rejected, which relieves the pressure on Ash and Kat. However, even though the adoption plan is no longer a major concern, Ash tells Kat that he'd still like her to commit to being a family with Luc.

A nervous Kat asks Ash for a few more days to make her decision, but he points out that it won't make any difference if she's not truly happy.

When Kat finally builds up the courage to admit that she's not sure if being a full-time mum is right for her, Ash snaps and tells Kat that they're never going to work.

As a heartbroken Kat then goes to pack her things, is her relationship with Ash really over for good?

H&A are filming a major car crash scene on Thursday this week (I have posted a couple of articles on the 'H&A Aust spoilers 2017' thread). Speculation is that it could be this year's end of season Aust 'cliffhanger' finale. I wonder if the above pictures of Jake/Robbo being arrested etc, which were filmed on Monday, are leading up to/part of the car crash story?

Some interesting photos from filming at Palm Beach on Tuesday this week. Kat running, Ash running + Robbo possibly kidnapping Tori.......(No idea whether the supposed rumour that these were some of Pia's final scenes is true.

I've heard Kat's leaving. If it's true I won't be sad to see her go. She started off as a poor actress and hasn't improved one iota in my opinion.

I don't like killing her and her unborn child, poor Ash at least he has Luc and Tori

Does Patrick return or any of Kat's family?
