Older sister of Ally and biological mother of Max, Nat is impulsive, bright and used to relying on her looks and charm for an easy life. But having left the bright lights of London to crash at home in Melbourne with her sister's family, Nat's wising up to the fact that looks have a shelf-life and some skeletons never stop rattling in the family closet. Nat has had very limited contact with her son, whom she abandoned for life as a D-grade celebrity. However, this Queen B is quick to calculate the odds of any situation and bet accordingly with the hand life deals her.

In season two, Nat meets Conrad Doyle (Tim Draxl), a younger man who has a very successful career in the entertainment industry. However, after getting the paparazzi to photograph them at a restaurant, Conrad is annoyed at Nat and she soon realises he is not someone that she wants to be with.
