Home and Away fans lose it over new character: 'Hot AF'

Home and Away fans are frothing over hot new character, River Boy Rory (Joshua Orpin) who is making waves (no pun intended) in Summer Bay, catching the eye of many Summer Bay ladies and fans alike.

Rocking up to the the Bay with his friend Dingo to help Mali (Kyle Schilling) sort out the Allen family after Mali's brother Illuka found himself in hot water with them, Rory turned the heads of three Summer Bay locals after he gave them a suggestive wolf whistle from the balcony of Salt, enraging owner Felicity Newman (Jacqui Purvis).

After Felicity confronts Rory for being sexist, she finds herself unexpectedly won over by his charm as he gives her his phone number. So will sparks fly between the two? Home and Away fans are hoping so, with many also being charmed by the hot new bad boy addition.
