Following their heartbreaking breakup last season, the couple mended after a few awkward encounters and mini-dramas. After a fight, Nikau left with Bella to travel to New York.
After some flying sparks, Nikau eventually left to accompany Bella to New York.
Courtney’s followers praised the couple’s happy ending on her social media.
Bella and Nikau will be sorely missed. Tonight’s programme had many tearful moments. Extremely happy they received the appropriate conclusion, exclaimed one delighted viewer.
“I loved this send-off; it made me tear up!”
“It was also great to have someone who had left the bay return for a visit — that never occurs,” the admirer remarked.
Characters go to visit their family members but never come back; one-off storylines like this should be common for cameo appearances. We adored it.
Another fan was concerned about the potential effects of Bella and Nikau leaving the long-running success.
Someone said on Courtney’s message board, ‘No way so many people are quitting the show it not going to be same.
Kawakawa’s departure was announced in November. Courtney joined the serial opera in 2018, and she announced her departure from Summer Bay after four years back in June.
