Orrett Family
An updated look at families previously featured on Wanted Down Under. Four years after their trial week in Australia, where do the Orrett family call home?
In 2012, Stuart and Gill Orrett longed to move their family to Australia to be closer to their eldest daughter Christine and their baby granddaughter. A trial week in Perth showed them a snapshot of how their life would look on the southern hemisphere, and while youngest daughter Lauren wasn't convinced, the rest of the family agreed it was the place for them.
When we caught up with the family in 2013, they were living in limbo in the UK. Convinced their future lay in Australia, paramedic Gill had managed to secure a job down under, but with a start date proving elusive, the family had no idea how long it would be before they were on the move.
Three years later, have the Orretts finally made it to the other side of the world, or did they decide their future lies a lot closer to home?
