Key Sentence:
- Popular Australian children's band The Wiggles has announced that crucial member Emma Watkins, better known as the Yellow Wiggles, will be leaving.
Watkins became Wiggle's first wife nine years ago. He was replaced by Ethiopian-Australian teenager Tsehay Hawkins as the group reformed to become more equitable and gender diverse. Founded in 1991, wobble has become an international phenomenon among children.
Known for her entertaining song and dance segments and hits such as Hot Fruit and Potato Salad, the four-piece actress has broadcast television programs and sold tens of millions of CDs and DVDs worldwide.
Watkins is known for his love of sign language, which he featured on the show, and speaking openly about his health issues. Watkins first joined the band in 2009 and played minor roles before becoming the Yellow Wiggle in 2013.
In addition, his brief marriage to Wiggle partner Lachlan Gillespie, which ended amicably in 2018, attracted media attention. Founder Anthony Field, also known as Blue Wiggle, described them as "Elvis of the Wiggles." While former Yellow Wiggle Sam Moran congratulated him on a "very successful yellow era."
The news was also received with some disappointment by parents and caregivers, who considered how to break the information to the show's younger fans. In August, to celebrate its 30th anniversary, Wiggles announced new additions, including local and Asian actors.
