It's been several months since Ashleigh Brewer left her four-year role as The Bold and the Beautiful's Ivy Forrester, and lucky for fans who've missed seeing the actress on their screens, she has just shared a sneak peek video of her new soap opera character.
As Soap Central reported in April, the Australia native joined the Aussie series Home & Away as Chelsea, a police officer who comes to Summer Bay to give one of the major characters on of the popular soap a huge shock. It seems like Chelsea is a far cry from B&B's Ivy, and that goes for how she looks, as well. As we mentioned back when news about Brewer's new role first broke, her new character has a blonde bob rather than the brunette locks she rocked on B&B.
"Introducing Ashleigh Brewer as Chelsea on Home & Away," wrote the actress on Instagram along with a video teaser of her debut storyline on the show.
Whatever trouble Chelsea will be stirring up in Summer Bay, one thing is clear: it will be short-lived. Brewer only signed on for a six-month arc on the Australian series and plans to keep pursuing other acting gigs in Los Angeles.
"My house is there, my boyfriend is there, my dog is there, my whole life is there," she says of LA. "I have a secure, solid and trustworthy web over there, so I'm really excited to get back over there to see what happens."
Brewer joined B&B in 2014 with several other credits under her belt including The Sleepover Club, H2o, and the Australian soap opera Neighbours.
