What has Madelyn Cline said about Outer Banks?
Speaking about her character's complicated relationship with her brother Rafe (Drew Starkey), Cline told Collider ahead of season 4: "I think right now, forgiveness is tough. But I do think that there is a part of her deep down that does see, I mean, he is ultimately her brother the same way that she looked at Ward.
"That's her family. She does see someone in there who is not all bad or hopes that there is someone in there who isn't all bad. So, I think, of course, with Sarah's family situation being so strained, she yearns for her family, but I think she also thrives and loves so deeply, her newfound family."
Asked about her character's relationship with John B and what fans can expect from season 4, she added: "We've been through so much. We've been through these adventures, we have been through breakups, we've fought, we've made up, we've broken up.
"We've been through all of these things that do happen in relationships, and we see that, ultimately, what brings them back together is their love for one another.
"And this season, we were just really excited to see them have a little bit of that normal — they get to almost date again. We get to see that love that they had for one another in season 1 back but in a very stable environment, which is so nice to do."
