Home and Away fans have just watched Irene Roberts say her goodbyes after more than three decades in Summer Bay. Her emotional exit left viewers heartbroken, but the show wasted no time in teasing what’s next. A brand-new trailer has already dropped, giving a first look at the future of the Bay, where romance and surprises are set to take centre stage.
Irene’s Farewell Leaves a Gap
Earlier this week, viewers said goodbye to Lynne McGranger’s Irene Roberts, who stepped away after an incredible 32 years in the role. Irene’s final appearance marked the end of an era, leaving both the community on screen and fans at home with heavy hearts. It was never going to be easy to see such a familiar face leave, but Home and Away has always been about balancing loss with new beginnings.
Almost immediately after Irene’s exit, the show released a promotional trailer to hint at what lies ahead. The new trailer gave a first glimpse at Summer Bay’s future. Alongside the smiles, the trailer promised the “unexpected,” hinting at challenges to come. At the centre of all the excitement was a storyline that fans have been hoping to see for a long time.
Home and Away: Wedding Bells for Cash and Eden
The trailer confirmed that Cash Newman and Eden Fowler are preparing for their wedding. Their romance has already weathered plenty of highs and lows, but now the pair are set to take the next big step together. The upcoming episodes will follow their journey as they plan for their big day. Stephanie Panozzo, who has played Eden since 2022, opened up about filming the emotional proposal that set this storyline in motion.
Panozzo explained that, as someone who loves music just as much as acting, being able to explore both sides of her creativity in the role has been hugely rewarding. The actress also spoke about her nomination for Best Daytime Star at the Inside Soap Awards. She said she felt honoured and grateful for the support from fans, especially in the UK. She added that she has never visited the country but would love to make the trip one day.
Following the sadness of Irene’s departure, the storyline brings joy, hope, and the promise of celebration. Weddings in Summer Bay are rarely without hurdles, and viewers can be sure this one will deliver plenty of surprises. Now, as preparations begin for Cash and Eden’s big day, the only question left is whether everything will run smoothly or whether Summer Bay has more shocks in store.
