What happens in Austin season 3?
Produced by Northern Pictures (Love on the Spectrum), the new season sees the Hartswood family navigate a chapter of chaotic love, blurred boundaries and wedding plans. Austin (Michael Theo) and Hayley (Natalie Abbott) are preparing to tie the knot.
It begins when Julian (Ben Miller) and Ingrid’s (Sally Phillips) upbeat divorce party triggers Austin’s impulsive marriage proposal to Hayley. As a result, both families find themselves at Hayley’s family’s traditional Australian homestead.
