What playing Irene taught Lynne about foster care

What playing Irene taught Lynne about foster care

For 32 years, Lynne McGranger played Irene Roberts on Home and Away... the woman who threw open her door to young people in need and quietly parented a whole lot of Australians along the way.


This week Myf sits down with Lynne to talk about life after the show, that Gold Logie moment, and the Irene-shaped hole she's left behind. It's also a conversation close to Myf's own heart, as the two get honest about foster care, family and what it really means to show up for a kid who needs someone in their corner.
