Lincoln Lewis breaks silence on parents’ shock split

“It's been hard on everyone obviously" - by New Idea
  • 21 May 2021

As a family in the public eye, Home and Away’s Lincoln Lewis and his NRL star dad Wally know better than anyone that your life’s private details can sometimes make their way into the public sphere.

WATCH: Lincoln Lewis comments on his parents' split

Such was the case in February when it was revealed that Wally had split with Lincoln’s mother Jacqui, marking an end to their 36-year marriage.

At the same time, it was reported that Wally had since struck up a relationship with Townsville mum Lynda Adams.

While Lincoln and his siblings Mitchell and Jamie-Lee had kept relatively tight-lipped about how the marriage breakdown had affected the family, this week the actor shared some details on The Anj, Rob & Robbo Show.

“It's been hard on everyone obviously, and anyone who goes through stuff... it's obviously going to be hard,” Lincoln told host Rob Knight of how the family has been coping.

“You're going through things in the public eye and that comes with the territory.”

Lincoln's family are rallying around his mother Jacqui in the wake of the split.

Asked specifically about how his mother Jacqui was doing, Lincoln shared that she has had a lot of support.

“We've all banded together, we're a tight family unit. She's got some amazing friends around her. That's the thing that gets anyone through,” the Tomorrow When The War Began star replied.

“At the end of the day, to have good people around you that love, care and support you, is the main thing.”

He added: “So obviously she's got that around her. We have our up days and our down days, but she's surrounded by good people.”
