The video, which has gone viral on TikTok, stars Margot, 33, and Liam, also 33, starring together in a scene on the long-running soap Neighbors in 2008.

Liam, who played Josh Taylor from 2007-2008, and Margot, who played Donna Freedman from 2008-2011, have a heated argument over their boyfriends.

Margot’s character says phrases like “Close the pity party” and “Talk to the hand” while defending her friend Bridget, played by Eloise Mignon.

American fans were stunned by the couple’s very Australian accent.

“I don’t think I’ve ever heard him speak with his Australian accent,” one fan commented on the TikTok video.

“I don’t think I’ve ever heard him speak with his Australian accent,” said another, while one wrote, “I forgot Margot is Australian.”

Liam and Margot both started acting in the classic Australian soap opera before they both became Hollywood stars.

Fans also pointed out how several Australian actors got their start in soap operas like Neighbors or Home and Away.

“I love how basically all Australian actors start with neighbors,” one said.

Margot took on the role of Donna Freedman on the series when she was just 17 and moved to Melbourne where she had no friends or family.

She made a brief cameo appearance in the soap’s final TV episode, which she found “very emotional.”

While the show has since been saved and is being revived digitally, Margot was one of the many stars to return for the star-studded finale.

Speaking at BAFTA: A Life In Pictures, supported by electronics brand TCL, in London last year, she explained, “When it came to an end, it was a very emotional thing.” Wrote memoirs and sent 37 bottles of champagne for the years it aired – and of course I made a video for them to play.”

After moving to Hollywood, Margot landed a role on the television series Pan Am and two years later, in 2013, she landed her first feature film role in Richard Curtis’ romantic comedy About Time.

She most recently played the role of Barbie in the film 2023 alongside Ryan Gosling.

Meanwhile, Liam started his career as wheelchair-bound street actor Josh Taylor in 2007-2008.

He has since taken Hollywood by storm with his role as Gale Hawthorne in The Hunger Games and was recently cast to replace Henry Cavill as Geralt of Rivia in The Witcher season four.
