Description

It’s been a month since actor Miranda Tapsell gave birth to her son Vincent, adding to an already busy household that also includes her husband James and their three-year-old daughter Grace. But Miranda hasn’t really had the chance to take parental leave, since she’s also busy welcoming another baby of sorts into the world: Top End Bub, an eight-part TV series four years in the making that explores parenthood and kinship in ways rarely seen on Australian screens.

In this episode, Miranda opens up about the joy and chaos of her growing family, how her upbringing as an only child being raised by a “village” in the Northern Territory influenced her approach towards motherhood, the power of a good rom-com, and why she refuses to wait for permission to tell the stories she knows the world needs to see.
