Daily Mail Australia has reached out to Lilley’s reps for comment. 

The Lunatics star went casual for the day at the beach, wearing boardshorts and a T-shirt. 

He was barefoot during the outing and covered his long hair with a blue bucket hat.

His ladylove went similarly casual in a white T-shirt, denim cutoff shorts and no footwear.

After finishing their beverages, the couple strolled along the boardwalk, holding hands and occasionally stopping to canoodle. 

Chris is a writer, director and performer of many successful TV projects. 

However, last year most of Chris’ shows were removed from Netflix in response to the Black Lives Matter movement.

Summer Heights High, Jonah from Tonga, Angry Boys and We Can be Heroes were pulled on June 11, as streaming services worldwide removed offensive content in response to George Floyd protests. 

In the dumped mockumentary-style shows, Chris appeared in brownface as Tongan schoolboy Jonah Takalua, in blackface as US rapper S.mouse, and mocked up as stereotypical Chinese-Australian physics student Ricky Wong.

Chris then came under fire after real-life Sydney student Filipe Mahe revealed his appearance in ABC documentary Our Boys was the inspiration for controversial Tongan character Jonah, leaving him feeling ‘angry and exploited’.

The comedian chose not to acknowledge any of the backlash, but instead chose to share a deleted scene from Jonah From Tonga on his Facebook page.

Despite the removal of four of his shows, Chris still has two series available on Netflix.

They are Ja’mie: Private School Girl and Lunatics, in which he dons brownface to play dog whisperer Jana Melhoopen-Jonks.
