It appears that Home and Away fan favourite Juliet Godwin is leaving Summer Bay after a farewell post for her surfaced on social media.

Juliet has played Dr. Bree Cameron since 2022, and while her departure from the soap hasn’t been officially announced yet, a goodbye post was shared in a Facebook fan group showing her at lunch with the show’s makeup artist Amy Weems, and Home and Away actor Matt Evans.

“Happy birthday @amyweems15 & farewell @julietgodwin_ you beauties,” the post read.

It looks as though Home and Away fan favourite Emily Weir, who plays Mackenzie Booth, also joined the farewell lunch, as she reshared a sweet photo of herself and Amy posing in front of a birthday cake.

Home and Away actors often sign a three year contract when joining the show, and Juliet’s first appearance on the soap was in August 2022 — meaning that her likely departure lines up with the end of her contract.

A Facebook fan commented that Juliet was leaving the show, citing “inside sources”, adding that “her last scenes were filmed last week.”

Irene Roberts is also officially leaving Summer Bay

Summer Bay will also farewell one of its most iconic characters of all time, with Channel 7 confirming that Irene Roberts, played by Lynne McGranger, will officially farewell Home and Away for good after 33 years on the soap.

A press release has teased that her departure will play out over the next few months and will be one of the show’s most emotional and unmissable storylines yet.

“After almost 33 years in my dream role and working every day with people who I love, respect and whom I now consider family, it’s bittersweet to be closing the chapter on what has been the best and longest gig of my life,” Lynne said of her decision to leave Home and Away.

“I am forever grateful to the best production crew in the world and to our genius writers — whose doors are always open — for everything they have done for Irene over the past 33-odd years, and I am so proud of the storyline which will see Irene out of the Bay. Above all, a massive, heartfelt thank you to the fans for your continued love and support.”

Home and Away airs Mondays – Thursdays at 7pm on Channel 7 and 7Plus.
