In a shocking turn of events that has left both fans and cast members stunned, Home and Away star Stephanie Panozzo has opened up about her emotional reaction to the unexpected exit of her on-screen co-star and close friend, Angelina Thomson.

“I was heartbroken,” Panozzo admitted in a recent interview. “Angelina brought such light and energy to every scene. Her departure feels like losing a piece of the family.”

Insiders say the departure was part of a dramatic twist planned months in advance, with Angelina’s character written out in a way that paves the path for high-stakes emotional drama in the coming episodes. However, fans and fellow actors alike are struggling to accept the loss.

Panozzo took to social media shortly after the episode aired, posting a heartfelt message:
“Working with Angelina was an absolute joy. Thank you for the laughs, the tears, and every beautiful moment in between. Summer Bay won’t be the same without you.”

Speculation is already swirling about whether this is truly the last we’ve seen of Thomson’s character — after all, Home and Away is no stranger to surprise comebacks.

For now, fans are bracing for the emotional fallout of the character’s departure — and sharing in Stephanie Panozzo’s sadness over saying goodbye to a beloved colleague and friend.
