Home and Away star reveals she's found love after 'unhealthy' relationship with co-star ex

star Sarah Roberts has revealed that she has finally found love again, following her tumultuous . The TV star, 40, who played Willow Harris in the Australian soap, split from James last year and described their relationship as something that "wasn't healthy."

But now, Sarah admitted that she has fallen in love with a new man who allows her "to grow in beautiful and unexpected ways." Speaking on the Stellar's Something to Talk About podcast, she said: "I've fallen in love with a man, I'm so in love. I finally found myself, as clichéd as that may sound."

Soon after the couple called time on their marriage, reports surfaced that he too had found love again with fellow Home and Away star Ada Nicodemou.

And while Sarah appeared to beam with delight when talking about her new love, it seems dealing with her split in the public eye took its toll.

She explained: "Dealing with it in the spotlight, and then everything that came out in the media after, absolutely ripped my heart into a million little pieces. But I can't change anyone else's actions or the way people behave. What I can take responsibility for is the way that I feel."

She said: "And I know that hurt people hurt people, but healed people can heal people – and I'm so happy with where I'm at today. I've finally found a love for myself which I didn't have. I have beaten myself up for a long time over the fact I stayed in something that wasn't healthy."

Sarah found fame after landing the role of Willow in the Aussie soap between 2017 and 2021. But despite leaving the soap, it seems Sarah still has ties to the cast.

Back in February Sarah told Daily Mail : "One of my best friends was one of my cast mates on Neighbours. That goes way back. Another one of my best friends, Emily Weir, she's from Home and Away."

She added: "I've also made friends with a lot of the new cast from Home and Away because Emily is friends with them and we all hang out together. I just had my 40th birthday party at the end of last year and I had a party on a boat on the Sydney Harbour. It was full of a lot of the Home and Away cast. I get really close to people and really value my friendships.'

Sarah continued: "You share so many deep dark secrets about yourself and you have to develop a lot of trust between each other. That lends itself to strong friendships."

While Sarah craved out a career for herself in Australian soaps, it looks as though she has now set her ambitions on landing a role on a HBO series in Hollywood.

She told the publication: "My next dream it would be to book a television show where I'm in a contract for five years. I would like that to be a character I can sink my teeth into. "

Sarah added: "I'm not sure I'd want to do another soap. I would have loved to have done something like Breaking Bad or Game of Thrones. That would be a dream job for me."
