Was she hiding her left hand?
Ziggy is at the centre of more drama in Home and Away scenes set to air down under when she finds out that she is pregnant.
But while she is facing some life-changing choices, actress Sophie Dillman is keen to point out that what people are saying about her own lovelife is not true.
Rumours have been swirling that she is engaged to her on-screen boyfriend, Patrick O’Connor, with many claiming that she has been hiding her left hand in photos, so the ring isn’t spotted.

However, Sophie is well aware of all the rumours that are being spread about her. In an interview with TV Week, she stated: “Oh, I see. Many comments on our images have implied that I was concealing my left hand everywhere.
“Even coworkers perceived us as enthusiastic. However, I assure you that there is no engagement and the hand is bare. Let’s dispel this rumour. Please.”
In addition, Sophie discussed how it felt to become 30 and how she is adjusting to leaving her 20s behind.
“It all added up, and I felt completely overwhelmed. I questioned, “At 29 am I already dead?” Which, of course, is untrue, but before it, I was anxious!

“I’m undoubtedly going through a crisis, but many people have experienced something similar, and suddenly your priorities change. Right now, I’m attempting to figure out what’s happening.”
Regarding Ziggy, she and Dean are likely to reach a decision point as a result of the pregnancy news, with Ziggy having to decide whether to pursue her dream of being a professional surfer or be a mother.
With Dean happy about the news and sensing that Ziggy does not share his enthusiasm, are the pair set to face a rocky path as they decide how best to proceed?
