Summer Bay's Shock Couple

Ada Nicodemou & James Stewart Reveal All.

- Jackie Brygel

This is the sizzling TV romance you won’t have seen coming – between Summer Bay’s perennially unlucky-in-love Leah and Justin. And let’s just say you won’t want to miss a moment of their red-hot affair!

For their hugely popular portrayers, Ada Nicodemou and James Stewart, it’s a small-screen pairing that seems to have come fabulously out of left field. And that’s one of the things they love most about it!

Here the stars spill on everything from their take on the new romance to filming love scenes and what their real-life partners have to say about it…

Were you surprised when you found out the writers were bringing Leah and Justin together?

Ada: It was surprising at first, because the characters haven’t had that much to do with each other. They’ve both been involved in quite different storylines – but then, it sort of makes sense. Leah and Justin are a similar age and they’re the ones who always seem to look after everyone else. But I think they’ve also both got to a stage in their lives where they need a friend to chat to and are ready to have a bit of fun.
