Home and Away stars James Stewart and his partner Ada Nicodemou share sweet tribute to his daughter on her milestone birthday
Home and Away star James Stewart celebrated a special milestone over the weekend, taking to social media to wish his daughter Scout a happy 13th birthday.
The Melbourne-born actor, 49, shared a sweet father-daughter snap on Saturday of him happily posing alongside Scout and captioned it with some heartfelt words.
'Happy 13th birthday bubba... and just like that she's a teenager!' James wrote, adding a red heart and birthday cake emoji.
James' Channel Seven co-star and girlfriend Ada Nicodemou, 47, joined the chorus, writing: 'Happy birthday gorgeous girl.'
Meanwhile, veteran actress Georgie Parker added: 'Happy birthday Scout.'
James shares his daughter with his actress ex-fiancée Jessica Marais, who he separated from in 2015.
Ada gushed over the couple's recent romantic connection, which blossomed after 25 years of friendship, in a recent issue of Stellar magazine.
Revealing she is usually very private about their intimate life together, the actress said she couldn't help but post about their recent relationship milestone because she and James have had such a great time together recently.
'It's been a really lovely year together,' she told the publication when asked about her rare social media post about the pair.
'I don't like to post a lot of stuff about us online but, at the same time, I'm really proud of the last year we've had and wanted to share that.'
The actress paid another tribute to James recently, taking to Instagram to post a sweet collection of pictures celebrating their one year anniversary at Mimi's in Sydney.
'Just perfect,' she captioned the post, which showed the happy couple enjoying a delicious meal of oysters, caviar and bubbles at the iconic eatery.
The soap opera stars were first linked at the beginning of 2024, when they were seen sharing a kiss on Anzac Day before Ada confirmed their romance in an interview.
Ada recently revealed how her Home and Away co-stars discovered her off-screen relationship with James.

Speaking on Mamamia's No Filter podcast, she explained she had only told a small group of people she was 'close with' on set before 'word got around' about the couple's off-screen romance.
'I figured I didn't need to tell anyone else. We didn't need a group email, people just worked it out,' she said.
Elsewhere in the interview, Ada admitted growing feelings for her television co-star James was 'weird' at first.
'Jimmy and I have known each other for years and there were no feelings for a really long time. So I was shocked when I started having feelings,' she said.
'There was this chemistry for the first time—this spark that happened that wasn't there before. It was weird.'
In July last year, Ada finally broke her silence on her romance with James after months of speculation.
But she insisted their Home And Away characters getting married on-screen was not an early sign of their real-life romance.
The couple began dating after Ada split from her ex-partner Adam Rigby just before Christmas in 2023 and James finalised his divorce from Sarah Roberts in March 2024.

Bindi Irwin reveals what she really thinks about brother Robert's shirtless thirst traps: 'It is rough'
Bindi Irwin has opened up about how she really feels when she sees her brother Robert participate in shirtless thirst traps online. The Wildlife Warrior, 26, said she 'can't unsee' her brother, 21, flaunting his toned torso in his recent Bondi commercial and Dancing With The Stars US announcement. However, during an appearance on the podcast Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce on Friday, she went on to say she is 'proud' of Robert for all he has accomplished. 'There are some things as his sister that I can't just unsee. Because when he did the Dancing [With The Stars] announcement, he was also just shirtless,' she said. 'He recently did his Bonds commercial where he was just in his underwear. It is rough,' she added with a laugh. 'I really want to be supportive. I really am so proud of him. He is taking the message of conservation to new heights.' Bindi went on to say it is 'wonderful and extraordinary' to watch Robert 'shine' as he grabs people's attention and 'then pivots' them toward wildlife conservation. However, she added: 'Do I get a little bit scared of the girls and women and some guys that are very intense? It can be a lot.' It comes after Robert reacted to Aussie mums checking out his sultry Bonds underwear campaign which went viral earlier this year. 'It was different and pretty nerve-racking but having wild animals part of it, made it a lot more chill for me,' he said during an interview on the Today Show on Thursday. Robert explained he aims to promote conservation and he enjoys raising awareness in a variety of ways. '[The shoot] exemplified that spirit of "even in your undies, Aussies are as cool as a cucumber",' he added. He then joked the shoot was 'scarier than handling any crocodile'. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce (@nglwithkylie) The internet went wild over images of Robert posing shirtless in Bonds underwear —flaunting his ripped torso while he cuddled up to native animals including a snake. Robert recently insisted the shoot was never about vanity, and everything he does comes back to one thing: his passion for conservation. 'I really thought in modelling Bonds underwear or doing Dancing With The Stars, that sort of thing, I could bring in a whole new audience to listen to my conservation message,' he told US Weekly. And he's sticking to that plan as just weeks ago, he announced he'd joined the cast of the US version of Dancing With The Stars, once again showing off his buff bod while cradling a snake for the promo. 'That's how I feel comfortable. That's who I am,' he said. 'It's all about this mission and I've got a real sense of purpose and passion. I got to achieve that. 'I definitely feel like I'm really lucky that now I've got a whole new audience that I can reach and hopefully just put out a bit of positivity and hopefully say, "Life's for living at 100."'
