Danni(ella) Mayo is the newest Constable to join the undercover unit and felt a little distance between herself and the others for quite a while. When she joined the unit in early 2001, she wasn't aware that she was dating a guy who was been watched by the gaming squad.
Recently she has a once off 'fling' with Peter Church, resulting in her getting pregnant. She is unsure on what she is going to do, as Church was amazed in finding out he was the father.
Once Luke Harris arrived, Danni found it hard to work with him, believing he was corrupt. Harris attempted to sack her on the grounds of the way she failed to work with him, though in the end she decided to quit.
Roxane Wilson was destined for a life in the entertainment industry. Her Father is Pee Wee Wilson, leader of the legendary rock’n’roll group The Delltones.
“From the earliest age, whenever anyone asked me what I wanted to be, I said ‘an actor’,” she says. “It always seemed like the natural thing to do.”
Roxane (34) was born on 7 November 1968 in Durban, South Africa and came via London to Australia at the age of five. After a couple of years in the Sydney suburbs, her family ‘dropped out’ and moved to Eungai Creek, on the New South Wales mid-north coast, where they ran a 50 acre vegie farm.
“It was an idyllic lifestyle for a young child,” she says. “When I wasn’t at school, I was exploring the bush, camping, swimming in creeks, and horseriding with friends.”
In 1982, Roxane and her family moved back to Sydney and got serious about pursuing her passion for acting. She joined The Rocks Players drama school, paying for her tuition with money she was earning from a highly lucrative modelling career.
At 15 she started modelling then at 18, Roxane used her success at modelling to go to New York for further drama training with Robert Modaka. She lived in New York for three years.
In 1991, after returning to Australia, Roxane moved to Perth to study full time at the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts. After graduating, she had feature roles in plays including Noel Coward’s PRIVATE LIVES, PRACTICAL MAMET, Edward Albee’s FINDING THE SUN and FREAK WINDS, a new Australian play by Marshall Napier.
Roxane made an immediate impact on television as well, with starring role in BIG SKY and guest parts in POLICE RESCUE, COMMON LAW, MURDER CALL and WILDSIDE. Last year, she won acclaim playing Suzy, the girlfriend of Reilly (Aaron Pederson), in WATER RATS.
Now she is set to win further accolades as Constable Danni Mayo in STINGERS. She describes Danni as impulsive, honast and also a bit of a tomboy.
For her to work on Stingers Undercover, she had to move from Sydney to Melbourne, with her husband actor, Grant Bowler (Blue Heelers, Medivac & The Mole).
Roxane recently moved to the US to focus on acting with Grant. Since they had been arrived, Roxane gave birth to a Baby girl and Grant recently filmed the latest series of The Mole, and they since have settled in the US.
Roxane's agent is: Barabara Leane & Associates Pty Ltd
