When his fiancé Felicity is involved in a serious vehicle accident, the actor Tane Parata finds himself at the center of the Summer Bay mayhem, throwing his wedding into disarray.
On Home and Away, Ethan Browne has emerged as the focal point of the story.
Before their lives were in danger due to Felicity Newman’s automobile being involved in a major accident, Tane Parata, the character he played, was supposed to be getting married.
However, he is a devoted father to his 14-year-old daughter Aaylah while he isn’t working on the soap opera.
How old is Ethan and where is he from?
Ethan, who is from the small New Zealand town of Wairoa, is about thirty-one years old.
He has talked about incorporating his Maori culture into Home and Away and honoring his ancestry by having his character do the Haka since joining the show.
When did Ethan start acting?
Ethan began his career in civil engineering but made the decision to pursue acting after years of wanting to.
He relocated to Australia for his studies, staying briefly in Brisbane. He moved to Sydney in order to attend the National Institute of Dramatic Arts.

Ethan signed a three-year contract with Home and Away shortly after graduating, which was his first significant acting role.
In retrospect, he said to the Wairoa Star, “I applied for a security licence and started working four nights a week as a bouncer.” I used to get two or three hours of sleep before heading to school. Those were difficult years. It was a huge juggling act because I also had fatherly responsibilities to maintain.
Is Ethan in a relationship?
Although Ethan has not publicly acknowledged being in a relationship, The Gisbourne Herald in New Zealand stated that in order to pursue acting, Ethan and his girlfriend Shayne Edwards went to Sydney in 2017.
Alongside Shayne, he was also present at the Hoyts Entertainment Quarter premiere of Top Gun: Maverick in Sydney on May 16, 2022.

Does Ethan have any children?
Yes, Ethan welcomed his daughter Aaylah into the world when he was sixteen years old.
The actor frequently posts cute pictures of his daughter and father together on social media, demonstrating how close they are.
“I’ve always been quietly ambitious, and becoming a father at a young age made me more determined to achieve anything I set my mind to,” he said in reference to his early fatherhood, as reported by the Wairoa Star. My goal has always been to set a good example for my kid.
