Why doesn't Paul Hogan return to Australia?

After over two decades of living in America, Hogan has revealed that he is really missing Australia.

“I’ve been homesick for years,” he told The Daily Telegraph in an interview.

“I miss the people, the ambiance – and there’s something you just can’t put your finger on, but there’s something about Australia that is friendlier and more laid-back."

Hogan has not returned home for a sole reason - his son, Chance.

“I’d rather be there, but I have my last child [Chance] who is an American – he only has me, whereas my tribe at home, they’ve all got each other," he explained. “Then the years have slipped by, and I’m sort of stuck here."

“I’ve got 10 grandchildren and they are all adults – but for Chance, the only family he’s got is me. All his friends, his band, musician mates, girlfriends, everything – they’re all American.

“So I’m hanging in there a bit longer, but eventually I’ll get back.”
