Jonathan LaPaglia has reportedly returned to Australia, but it seems the former Australian Survivor host has more on his mind than Christmas crackers and New Year's Eve celebrations. Despite his high profile, LaPaglia has avoided public appearances since returning, opting for family barbecues and beach time over industry events. 'There's genuine interest,' an industry insider told Daily Mail. As LaPaglia spends Christmas in Queensland with family, those close to him say the message is clear: this isn't just a holiday. Following his departure from Survivor, LaPaglia was reportedly hopeful new work would materialise in the US, where he has long split his time.
