Home and Away continues to bring the drama next week as Justin and Leah’s wedding day arrives, a familiar face returns to Tane is arrested as he plans to flee with baby Maia
Home and Away fans can expect plenty of drama next week.
Fans of the Aussie soap will see Justin and Leah’s long-awaited wedding in upcoming scenes as the couple solidify their love in an elegant ceremony with their nearest and dearest.
Dressed in a classic white gown, Leah (Ada Nicodemou) walks down the aisle towards the man she loves, after a drama-filled five-year romance with Justin (James Stewart).
Their relationship has been put to the ultimate test over the past year. The pair’s ordeal at the hands of Vita Nova late last year left Justin’s life on the line, leading to a breakdown for Leah which left a big question mark hanging over their future. Thankfully, the pair have found their way back to each other, and recently set about planning their big day in record time.
As such, there’ll be a few surprises in store, including John (Shane Withington) being enlisted as the celebrant to officiate the joyous union. Leah and Justin’s nuptials will also see the return of some familiar faces. As Justin has kept the wedding plans a secret, Leah has no idea what’s in store. She’s disappointed when she learns that some of her close family members won’t be able to make it, so enlists Alf (Ray Meagher) to walk her down the aisle.
However, on the big day itself, she’s surprised when Alf tells her that he can’t walk her down the aisle after all because her son VJ arrives and he’s going to do it. All eyes are on the breathtaking bride as VJ walks her down the aisle, with Justin bowled over by the sight of his bride-to-be walking towards him. The newlyweds mark married life with a kiss but will it be a happily ever after for the couple?
Also, Tane (Ethan Browne) makes the national headlines, with the police appealing for any information on the “suspect” involved in this kidnapping of baby Maia, who abandoned in the sand dunes of Summer Bay a number of weeks ago. Everyone watches with horror as the nightmare plays out publicly. Tane, at his cousin’s house with the baby, sees his own face on the news. Panicking, he calls Mali and asks him to bring his passport.
He arrives with Harper in tow, which Tane isn’t happy about, and then reveals that he didn’t bring his passport because fleeing the country is ridiculous, and that Tane should just come home. He doesn’t have a plan, and he can’t hide with Poppy (Maia) forever.
Harper tells Tane they’ve found the mother, who loves her baby, and is desperate to have her back. Hearing this, Tane is at a loss for words. It’s time to face reality. Together with Mali and Harper, they return to the police station with the baby safe and sound.
It’s a tearful reunion between Poppy and her mother, who promises to never leave her again. The sweet moment is short-lived, however, as the police finally place Tane under arrest. Harper visits him alone in his cell later, trying to reassure him that she can get him the best legal help. But Tane is grim – he’s broken the law and kidnapped a baby; he doesn’t need help. He needs to face what he’s done. What’s going to happen to him now?
