In response to rumours that emerged last week claiming Offspring co-stars Asher Keddie and Kat Stewart were rivals behind the scenes, the charismatic duo decided to set the record straight last night on The Project ahead of Offspring’s season six premiere.

Joking around with each other in a way that only best pals can, Asher explained how having her first child, Valentino, significantly affected her emotional capacity and patience.

“If I wasn’t emotional enough as it was before I had a child, I’m sort of bubbling over now at the drop of hat. And she has no filters at all!” she said, pointing at Kat.

“That’s why she’s so difficult to work with,” the blonde beauty remarked as laughter erupted from the audience.

Earlier on the show, Asher first addressed the so-called tension by wrapping an arm around her on-screen sister, Billie.

“We’re actually being quite shocked it’s taken so long to come out,” to which Kat pipped up: “I think it’s really obvious, don’t you?”

WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD

Last night’s returning episode of the highly-anticipated drama saw our favourite dysfunctional family two years on from where we left off.

Little Zoe is no longer a new-born, and has grown up into the spitting image of her late daddy Patrick.

Sadly, Nina’s relationship with Leo didn’t go the distance after he so awkwardly revealed to her that he is seeing someone new – the exact moment Nina rejects a call from her father Darcy, who was seemingly having a fatal heart attack at that very moment.

Is this it for Nina and Leo?

After the musician’s shock death, the Proudmans must rally together to provide him with the funeral he had always wished for – a celebration of his eccentric life.

Speaking to News.com.au of the writer’s decision to kill off the beloved character, Jonathan Gavin said: “It’s been two years since the audience last saw Nina and the Proudman family there was a feeling that we needed a major event to bring everybody back together.”

“We realised the death of a parent is, of course, a major event in anybody’s life — but in that family the place that Darcy holds can’t be filled by anybody else. So it’s an incredible change to the geography of the family and it sends everybody off into new directions.”

“The characters are in their 30s now (and) that becomes a fear when you’re in your 30s and you start to realise that your parents might not be there forever.”

Oh brother… We can’t wait to get to know Will, the hidden sibling.

And because the Proudmans really are a ‘more the merrier’ type of family, last nights action-packed return also saw the introduction to a shiny new character, a hidden sibling named Will.

The reveal of Darcy’s long-lost son to the family’s neighbour saw a spectacular meltdown from none other than Geraldine herself.

There was hair pulling and flying tacos and well, it was the perfect way to start off the season with a bang.

We already cannot wait for next week!

Geraldine’s spectacular meltdown was one for the ages.
