Today’s the final-final day of filming for Neighbours. End of an era. Again.
All the best to the current cast and crew. Fond memories, always.
Love, Marco Alessi. 💜 #neighbours #90sCast #alessifamily #marcoalessi #rickalessi #neighbourstv @neighbours

COVER REVEAL!
My new picture book ‘CHEESE!’, the follow up to the joyous ‘PASTA!’, hits bookstores September 23rd, exactly one month away!😊 I’m thrilled that I got to team up again with illustrator extraordinaire Beatrice Cerocchi. Beatrice’s illustrations are again stunning.

Not long ago I reunited with my Neighbours on-screen brother Dan Falzon (Rick Alessi). Tonight in London I got to catch up with another ‘neighbour’- Julie Mullins (Julie Martin). Next on ‘We Were Once Neighbours…’
That’s a show right there, right? 🤪😉 @neighbours #90scast

Here’s a very special post, especially for the die-hard Neighbours fans out there. Today I had the absolute pleasure of reuniting with my on-screen brother Dan Falzon (‘Rick Alessi’). Marco and Rick Alessi - together again. Big love from us. #Neighbours #neighbourstv #90sCast

I always felt on Xmas Eve that the voices of those who are no longer with us, or those we achingly miss, speak the loudest to us. If you are hurting, yearning, or feeling fragile these holidays, go gentle, my friend. Count the blessings you have, and know you are enough. ❤️💚
