Andrew Morgan wrote a series of gushing letters to the 15-year-old star, who cannot be identified for legal reasons, in which he repeatedly professed his love and asked her to marry him.
"[I] thank you for coming into my world and may I offer you a proposition," Morgan wrote in an email dated August 4, 2018.
"Would you mind being my wife as I'm finding myself falling in love with you and I'm somewhat unable to resist you."
Court documents said Morgan wrote 12 emails over the next eight days, each time expressing his love and desire for them to be wed.
In one email, he even anticipated being caught.
"If I'm arrested for talking to you and placed in jail, I'll be thinking of you and I will write to you, I have your mailing address, I'll write to you if anything happens."
The teen did not respond to the emails and they were passed on to her security team, who reached out to NSW Police.
Under the conditions of the CPR, Morgan is allowed contact with only certain, pre-determined children and only if he is supervised.
His correspondence with the actress - who is not on his list of approved contacts - violates that condition.
Morgan was arrested later that month. He was found in possession of seven child abuse images at the time, each depicting unclothed males and females aged between 5 and 10.
When questioned about the images, Morgan allegedly told police he'd been sent them about 10 months earlier and didn't think they constituted child pornography.
He remains behind bars and will be sentenced on May 10.
