Asher Keddie: “I don’t really have regrets, but…”
For the past two decades, Asher Keddie has been a reliable presence in living rooms across the country – and one of the most popular actors of her generation. But despite her success – or, perhaps, because of it – she did not always feel at ease with her fame.
In this episode of Something To Talk About, Asher sits down for a reflective chat as she looks back on the dizzying yet disconcerting experience of becoming a household name thanks to her starring roles in the hit TV series Love My Way and Offspring and explains how, in her mid-forties, she finally began to enjoy the fruits of her labours. She also discusses her role on the new comedy drama Strife, her marriage to artist Vincent Fantauzzo and – as she looks ahead to turning 50 next year – the bittersweet perspective she has on being an “older mother” to an eight-year-old son.
Every episode of Strife will be available exclusively on Binge from December 6.
