There’s nothing like a Home and Away reunion between former co-stars to get us feeling all warm and fuzzy.
On Friday, Sarah Roberts and Zoe Ventoura gave us old-school Summer Bay nostalgia when they caught up for some girl time.
Sarah, who starred as Willow Harris on the soap until April 2021, shared a sweet snap of her sharing a few drinks with Zoe, who previously played her on-screen lover Alex Neilson.

“Our Willex loving heart! ❤” one viewer commented, while another wrote: “A beautiful friendship built of the back of a beautiful love story.. which probably wouldn’t have happened if it wasn’t for you @sarahroberts pushing for the story ❤️”
Last year prior to leaving her three-year role on the soap, Sarah revealed she pitched the idea of Alex’s return to the show’s producers.
Willow and Alex had a whirlwind romance.
(Image: Seven)“I wanted people who aren’t usually represented on television to be represented, and then when we heard from fans what a great job we were doing, [Zoe and I] were just so thrilled,” Sarah told Stuff.
“We never thought we’d have that kind of response. [Willow]’s had a rough ride when it comes to love, but everyone in the Bay has. I mean, you get married in the morning and divorced in the evening.
Zoe’s character Alex said goodbye to Summer Bay in March 2020 following a whirlwind on-screen romance with Willow.
The actress praised producers and fans for bringing one of the show’s most prominent same-sex relationships to life.
“I knew how important this storyline would be to the LGBTQ community. I felt so lucky to be part of it. I hope it means more opportunities and more acceptance,” she said at the time of her departure.
“I can’t help but tear up reading all the messages from our new found fans. We see you, and we are grateful for your support.”
