Ada Nicodemou doesn't look like this anymore! Home and Away star reveals her very puffy visage as fans ask 'What have you done to your face?'

Ada Nicodemou stepped out with a rather 'swollen' face as she enjoyed a romantic getaway this week. The Home and Away star, 48, took to Instagram on Thursday to share a series of loved-up photos with her beau and co-star, James Stewart, 49, on a romantic weekend away. The couple looked very chuffed to be in each other's company on their whistle-stop holiday on the New South Wales South Coast. 'A well earned weekend away after working extremely hard for the last few weeks (on top of being really sick with influenza),' Ada captioned the romantic photos. However, it wasn't the tranquil rural scenes, or the couple's palpable affection, that captured some fans' attention. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. One eagle-eyed fan noticed that Ada was sporting a much puffier visage than Home and Away fans have come to know over her 25-year stint on the long-running soap. 'What have you done to your face?' the follower questioned, while another jumped in suggesting that Ada may have recently had cosmetic surgery. 'Yes, what work have you had to your face?' they asked. Others, however, were quick to point out how fresh-faced and rested Ada appeared in the photos, after her recent illness. 'Look at those happy faces. Beautiful. I love seeing happy people,' one fan offered. 'Wow, looking very refreshed,' another swooned, while a third offered a similar: 'That's lovely. You look both happy and relaxed.' The post comes after claims emerged, back in 2018, that Ada had undergone a 'full body upgrade.' Speaking to Woman's Day at the time, surgeon Dr Meaghan Heckenberg claimed she believed Ada had 'rhinoplasty, muscle-relaxing injections and dermal fillers'. 'Ada looks like she's had rhinoplasty and probably some muscle-relaxing injections and dermal fillers to give her that fresh look,' Dr Heckenberg said. 'An eyebrow lift can also be achieved by careful placement of muscle-relaxing injections, such as Botox or Dysport. Of course, she benefits from her Mediterranean heritage, so she's got great skin anyway.' Dr Heckenberg has not treated the actress herself, and Daily Mail Australia contacted Ada for comment at the time of the report. In 2019, Ada confirmed she had undergone breast augmentation after years of speculation.

Home and Away fans heartbroken by Channel 7's 'emotional' Lynne McGranger tribute

Home and Away fans have been left heartbroken after Channel 7 shared an 'emotional' tribute as they prepare to farewell Lynne McGranger's character Irene Roberts after 33 years on the show. Seven has described the farewell as "the event 33 years in the making". In the clip, we see hints at what's to come on the show, with Irene telling John (Shane Withington), "I'm so scared," as clips of her time on the show play, showing some of the much-loved stars that have graced the show, including, the late Johnny Ruffo. She also tells Leah (Ada Nicodemou) through tears, "If I say it, that will make it real." "Time is just slipping through my fingers," she tells Leah in another scene. "I won't lose you from my life, one second before I have to," John also tells a tearful Irene. The voiceover says, "Say goodbye to a legend... Don't miss a moment of Home and Away." RELATED: The sweet way Home and Away legends support newcomers on the show: 'Really kind' Home and Away fans outraged after Channel 7's 'ridiculous' announcement Home and Away scene sparks major theory about star's 'emotional exit' The show has been hinting that Irene's exit will be related to memory loss, with Channel 7 confirming in a statement, "In recent weeks, Irene has experienced a series of alarming memory lapses, including a concerning incident where she forgot she was babysitting Archie and nearly left him home alone. "Next week, Irene takes her first step toward confronting the truth. With the support of her dear friend John Palmer (Shane Withington), she bravely meets with Dr Bree Cameron (Juliet Godwin) for a medical consultation. It's there that Irene is faced with a gut-wrenching reality. There's no coming back from this one. "As word spreads, the Bay will rally to support one of its most beloved residents through her biggest challenge yet, building towards an episode that will go down in Australian television history." Lynne has been on the show since her on-screen debut in 1993, when Irene, a recovering alcoholic, returned to Summer Bay after turning her life around and hoping to reconnect with her daughter, Fin (Tina Thomsen). Since then, she has become one of the most popular characters on the soap and has been at the centre of some of the show's biggest storylines. Heartbroken Home and Away fans have taken to Instagram to share their love of Lynne, with one fan writing, "Gosh... this has me in tears already... beautiful tribute! You are going to be so missed on the show!" "These scenes look heartbreaking I'm not sure we're ready to farewell Irene!" another said. "There's not a part of me ready to say goodbye, this promo made me so emotional and then seeing Noah [Beau Brady] in it broke me more and then seeing Johnny had me in tears," a third wrote. "Lynne!! This is such a beautiful tribute," someone else added. "Thank you for being a fabulous Irene that you are! I am so sad to see you go, but excited for your new journey!" "Not ready for this farewell at all," another wrote. "It's going to be so strange watching Home and Away without Irene," one person said. "It'll be so different." "Nooooo!!!! I'm not ready to say goodbye to Irene," an upset viewer wrote. "Thank you for everything, and good luck for the future. H&A won't be the same without you." "Tissue boxes ready," someone else said. "I wish it was a cheery goodbye," another added. Lynne, who is the longest-serving female actor on an Australian drama series, said in a statement earlier this year: "After almost 33 years in my dream role and working everyday 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. "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."

Lynne McGranger's heartbreaking final Home and Away storyline revealed as her beloved character Irene is set to face devastating illness

Home and Away is set to wave goodbye to one of its beloved, longstanding cast members, and her final hurrah is creeping up on fans quicker than they expected. Irene Roberts, played by the legendary Lynne McGranger, will be leaving screens in the coming months after three decades on the hit Aussie series. It has been revealed that the tough-talking, lovable character's final storyline, which is currently in motion, will grip the nation. In recent weeks, Irene has battled with distressing memory loss, including a moment where she forgot she was babysitting Archie and nearly left him at home by himself. Next week, Irene will take her first step in coming face-to-face with the truth, with the help of dear friend, John Palmer, played by Shane Withington. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. After John pushes Irene to meet with Dr Bree Cameron, played by Juliet Godwin, for a medical consultation, the reality of the situation becomes hard to shake off: There's no coming back from this one. As word spreads about her condition, the Summer Bay community will rally around the much-loved character and get her through her toughest challenge. In March, it was revealed that Lynne had filmed her final scenes as Irene on Home and Away, with the series sharing moving scenes from her last day on set. The 72-year-old was gifted flowers by her co-stars, including Ada Nicodemou, and looked very emotional - albeit elated - as she finished up at Seven's long-running series after over 30 years in the cast. 'I've had the ride of my life. And I love each and every one of you so much: The cast – Ray, Georgie, Emily, Shane, Ada, James, all the youngins' she said in a statement. 'The art department, the writers, everybody – there are so many unsung heroes. This show is made up of so many parts' Lynne continued. 'You're all amazing, and it's been my great privilege to work with each and every one of you. I'm touched, I'm humbled and I'm so honoured. Thank you so much.' An additional post to the show's Instagram read: 'Today, Lynne wrapped her final scene with her best friend Ada by her side. 'Stay tuned for Irene's emotional exit storyline coming later this year'. Lynne has been a Home and Away fan favourite for three decades playing the character of 'Aussie battler' Irene Roberts. The actress, who is nominated for both a Silver and Gold Logie at this year's 65th Awards, announced her departure from the show earlier this year. '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' the veteran star said at the time. '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' she continued. '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.'

Ada Nicodemou like you have never seen her before! Home and Away star busts out of daring dress as she accompanies partner James Stewart at charity ball

Ada Nicodemou left jaws on the floor over the weekend as she made a rare red carpet appearance in one of her most daring looks yet. The Home and Away favourite, 47, turned heads as she arrived at the annual Tour de Cure Gala in Sydney on Friday night, stepping out alongside her longtime partner and co-star James Stewart. Known for her more conservative style choices, Ada broke away from tradition in a jaw-dropping black halterneck gown emblazoned with oversized red floral details and featuring a series of bold cut-outs across the chest and torso. The dramatic design clung to her enviable figure, with the sheer panels and plunging neckline putting her toned physique firmly in the spotlight. She styled her brunette tresses in soft waves and kept her glam glowing, pairing bronzed skin with a nude lip and smoky eye. Ada completed her risqué look with black stiletto heels and a confident smile.

Beside her, James Stewart, 48, looked every inch the leading man in a classic black tuxedo and bow tie, flashing a grin as he posed proudly with Ada. The glamorous couple were just two of the high-profile guests attending the Tour de Cure gala, which raised an impressive $1.6 million for cancer research, support and prevention. The star-studded night saw appearances from some of Australia's most beloved personalities, including Paul Hogan, David Koch, Mark Beretta, Larry Emdur, Jamie Durie, Edwina Bartholomew, and Delvene Delaney. A major highlight of the evening was a powerful and emotional speech from 2024 Australian of the Year, Professor Richard Scolyer AO, who has inspired millions with his groundbreaking work and personal cancer journey. Last month, Ada gave a heartwarming update on her relationship with co-star James, just a few weeks after celebrating their one-year anniversary together. The Home and Away star gushed over the couple's recent romantic connection, which blossomed after 25 years of friendship, in an issue of Stellar. 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 a great year together. 'It's been a really lovely year together,' she told the publication when asked about her rare social media post about the pair. Edwina Bartholomew (pictured) stunned in a chic strapless white gown featuring a structured blazer-style bodice with lapels, pocket detailing and a sleek mermaid silhouette, which she paired with minimalist heels and an elegant up do Jamie Durie (right) looked suave in a sharp black tuxedo featuring a satin peak lapel, crisp white shirt and black bow tie, completing the polished ensemble with black leather shoes '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.' Earlier this year, Ada shared a tribute to James, as she took to Instagram to post a sweet collection of pictures celebrating their one year anniversary at Mimi's in Sydney. The Sydney-born star recently revealed how her Home and Away co-stars discovered her off-screen relationship with James. The soap opera stars, whose characters are married on the Channel Seven show, 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. Speaking on Mamamia's No Filter podcast, the actress revealed 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 relationship. In July, Ada finally broke her silence on her romance with James after months of speculation. She confirmed she was dating her longtime co-star James in a magazine interview, describing their romance as 'unexpected'. 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.

Fans shocked at one huge difference between Home and Away star James Stewart and his identical twin - so can you spot it?

Home and Away star James Stewart has stunned fans after they noticed a huge difference in appearance between him and his identical twin brother Nick. The veteran actor, 49, recently shared a precious gallery of photos to social media which captured him helping Nick prepare for his wedding last month. The pair were the spitting image of each other, with both cutting stylish looks in crisp white shirts, black dress pants and tan dress shoes. However, fans noticed one huge difference between the two which immediately distinguished them. James' hair was jet-black while his brother Nick's was greying, which allowed fans to easily tell who was who. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Many of James' followers took to the comment section to gush over the precious photos. 'He's you but with grey hair!' one person wrote. 'Twins that are easy to tell apart,' a second added. 'Well one of them clearly uses Just for Men!' a third quipped and another wrote: 'You could pass as twins!' Last month, James and his Home and Away co-star girlfriend Ada Nicodemou turned heads as they attended a lavish wedding on the Gold Coast. The pair stunned as guests at the wedding of his identical twin brother Nick to his fiancée Mae - who was previously married to Aussie surfing legend Mark 'Occy' Occhilupo. The ceremony took place at the idyllic Tall Trees Tallebudgera estate, with the star-studded guest list gathering under the sunshine for what turned out to be a picture-perfect day. Best man James and his girlfriend Ada were all smiles as his brother tied the knot under clear blue skies while guests enjoyed the stunning ceremony. James and Ada put on a loved-up display as they arrived hand-in-hand and dressed to the nines. It comes after Ada gave a heartwarming update on her relationship with co-star James, just a few weeks after celebrating their one-year anniversary together.
