Kyle Braxton (also Bennett) was a fictional character from the Australian Channel Seven soap opera Home and Away, played by Nic Westaway.

The actor has been long-listed for a Logie Award and TV Week said that the role had made Westaway one of the "rising stars of 2013".

[1] Digital Spy's Daniel Kilkelly reported that Lincoln Younes had been tweeting about Westaway joining the cast and revealed that he had been listed as a Home and Away series regular on his agency profile.

[1] He added "the page names his character as Kyle Braxton, so it seems that recent arrival Danny won't be the last addition to the family!

[4] "Kyle looks like he’s got it all sorted –physically fit, confident, comfortable in his skin… he’s not particularly verbose and if you saw him in a pub, you’d either dismiss him as someone just there to have a quiet drink or avoid him for fear of ending up in a loud fight.

"Westaway told a reporter from Home and Away Official Collector's Edition that Kyle is a damaged individual who grew up with no love in his life because he was young when his mother died.

His oldest brother Darryl Braxton (Steve Peacocke) identifies good within Kyle and can see that he has been damaged and misplaced his trust with Danny.

[5] The actor enjoys his character's dark persona and spent hours practicing Kyle's "death stare" in front of a mirror.

[8] The storyline explores Kyle wanting revenge on Casey and exacts it by chaining him to a car in the remote Australian outback.

[6] While on The Morning Show, Westaway told host Kylie Gillies that the episodes are action packed and full of surprises for both Casey and Kyle.

[6] Peacocke added that there were helicopters filming aerial shots, stunt men doing driving sequences and an explosion.

[6] Executive producer Lucy Addario told Miller that Kyle's revenge on Casey required a remote location and it was "imperative" that they filmed outside of the show's setting.

[9] Younes told Sarah Ellis from Inside Soap that Casey wakes up in the desert, badly beaten and greeted with a "mysterious stranger".

They play out as Kyle's plan begins to fail with Tamara Kingsley (Kelly Paterniti) arriving to rescue Casey.

"[13] Younes later told Daniel Kilkelly from Digital Spy that it will be tough for Kyle to earn Casey's respect and forgive him.

Paterniti told TV Week's Miller that Kyle helps Casey out and "I wouldn't say they become best friends, but it certainly does soften the tension between them.

Series producer Lucy Addario told a reporter from TV Week that "in a misguided attempt at brotherly bonding, Kyle takes his three siblings away to his hometown of Melbourne, to throw a bucks party.

[21] Kyle is surprised when his ex-girlfriend Phoebe Nicholson (Isabella Giovinazzo) arrives in Summer Bay to perform at a music festival he has organised, alongside Tamara.

[23] On 1 April 2016, Jonathan Chancellor from The Daily Telegraph pointed out that Westaway had posted fewer pictures of the Home and Away filming locations on his social media, prompting fans to speculate that he was set to leave the show.

[24] Sophie Dainty of Digital Spy confirmed Westaway had decided to leave the show after almost four years and Kyle departed on 21 April.

[25] Kyle's final storyline saw him take the blame for an armed robbery carried out by his girlfriend Isla Schultz (Samantha Jade).

Brax and Natalie search for Casey and locate Kyle when Tamara throws a flaming petrol can at him, causing an explosion.

Ricky Sharpe (Bonnie Sveen) transfers $100,000 from Angelo's into Connie Callahan's (Celia Ireland) bank account.

Ricky convinces Kyle to take part in illegal deals to help raise money, unbeknown that she is setting him up.

He is unable to resist when she acts on her feelings and kisses him, but he pulls away and puts distance between them by moving back in with his brothers leaving Tamara devastated.

Kyle is devastated when Brax turns himself into the police, after confessing to accidentally killing Johnny Barrett year prior.

Kyle and Tamara team up to organise a music festival to unite the Summer Bay and Mangrove River students.

Before going to court, he plants his fingerprints on Isla's gun and the money she stole to keep her out of trouble and he was found guilty and sentenced to eight years imprisonment with five more added due to breaking his good behaviour bond.

Kyle, Phoebe and Ash (George Mason) won the 2015 TV Week and Soap Extra #OMGAward for Best Love Triangle.

[5] A reporter from TV Magazine said "asif Kyle hasn't caused enough grief for Casey by kidnapping him, he now has his eye on his half-brother's girlfriend Tamara.
