Early life

According to her MySpace page, Gregg was Miss Teen New South Wales in 1993 and graduated in 1996 as an alumna of St John Paul College, Coffs Harbour in New South Wales from 1991 to 1996.

Gregg studied at the University of Southern Queensland, graduating with a Bachelor of Theatre Arts.[1]

Career

Gregg began her career in theatre, performing in stage productions for La Boite, Queensland Theatre Company and Belvoir Street Theatre, before moving into screen work,[1] beginning with a role in 2002 television film Seconds to Spare, opposite Antonio Sabàto Jr. and Kimberley Davies.[2]

In 2005, Gregg had a guest role in medical drama All Saints,[3] before landing a role in long-running soap opera Home and Away, playing the recurring role of Charity Fernbrook, a member of 'The Believers' cult, who was previously a midwife. The character was brought back by force by Mama Rose to induce the labour of Tasha (Isabel Lucas).[4] She then played the lead character of Anthea in the 2007 romantic comedy film All My Friends Are Leaving Brisbane, alongside Ryan Johnson.[5]

In 2008, Gregg had a role as crime witness Taylor in the first season of Underbelly.[6] That same year, she joined the ensemble cast of BBC-commissioned Australian drama Out of the Blue, in the main part of 30-year old Tracy O'Donnell, book-keeper, stay-at-home mum and wife of Jarrod O'Donnell (Clayton Watson).[7] The role reunited her with All My Friends Are Leaving Brisbane co-star Johnson, as well as seeing her appear alongside Zoe Carides, Diane Craig, Daniel Henshall and Samara Weaving. She starred in 85 episodes of the series.[8]

The following year, Gregg had guest roles in Packed to the Rafters[9] and police procedural series Rush.[10] In 2010, Gregg played the role of the shallow and jealous Dimity in comedy feature film Jucy,[11] alongside Johnson once more[12] That same year, she had guest roles in drama series Spirited[13] and comedy series Lowdown.[14] In 2012, she made a second guest appearance in Lowdown,[15] as well as playing a guest role in comedy-drama series Offspring, opposite Asher Keddie.[16] The following year she guested in drama series Wonderland.[17]

More recently, Gregg was the lead actor in six-part comedy series The Carers, of which she was also the creator.[1] The pilot of the series was the winner of the Sunny Coast Showdown – Showdown Max in 2025.[18]

Gregg has also voiced TV advertisements for KFC, Coca-Cola, Uncle Tobys and Cadbury Cherry Ripe.[19] Additionally, as a food and health blogger, Gregg the cookbook Bubba Yum Yum: The Paleo Way for New Mums, Babies and Toddlers, with celebrity chef Pete Evans and nutritionist Helen Padarin. The book raised controversy after being called “potentially deadly for babies” by health experts.[20][19]

Personal life

Gregg met musician and Australian Idol 2008 season 6 winner Wes Carr at a barbecue in 2008. They were married in April 2012, after which they honeymooned in Europe. Gregg gave birth to her first child, Willow Harrison Carr in Sydney on 5 November 2012.[11][21][22] He was born with a compromised gut and immune system.[19]

Wanting to get out of the city, Gregg and family moved from Sydney to the Sunshine Coast in 2016, where they bought a house.[23] The couple then had a second child called Jackson.[24]

In 2021, Gregg and family relocated to Nashville, Tennessee, to pursue Carr's dream of becoming a country music star in the States. They had to get special permission to do so, because the Australian borders were closed, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[24] They returned to Australia in late 2024, settling on the Sunshine Coast.[24]
