Whatever happened to Heath from Blue Water High? Early 2000s heartthrob is Adam Saunders is now a beefed up male model – so would YOU recognise him?
It’s been 15 years since actor Adam Saunders shot to fame playing teen heartthrob Heath Carroll in ABC drama Blue Water High.
Now aged 33, the former child star looks very different to how fans may remember him.
Adam is now a beefed up male model and fashion photographer based in Sydney.

His once-boyish looks have been replaced by a chiselled six-pack, peroxide blond hair, a nose ring and an array of tattoos.
While he may no longer be an actor, his confidence in front of the camera is clear in the myriad of shirtless photos filling his Instagram.
Speaking to Vice in 2016 about how he looks back on Blue Water High, Adam explained: ‘Every now and then there will be an article on Facebook about shows from the early 2000s, which always feels strange because it’s not like it affects me day-to-day.’

‘I started with Blue Water High when I’d just turned 18. I’d finished school and that was my first big acting role. I was still getting to know myself.’
After leaving Blue Water High in 2006, Adam went on to pursue a career in music with his now-defunct band, Prince of Thieves.
‘I remember saving up money from doing Blue Water High and buying a home recording studio,’ he told Vice.
I was still getting to know myself’: Adam previously admitted that it still feels ‘strange’ to see throwback photos of his time on the popular teen drama.
