After five years of marriage, the formerĀ Home and AwayĀ co-stars Sarah Roberts and
James Stewart filed for divorce in March 2024. The pair met on the set of Australian soap,
Home and AwayĀ in 2017 and quickly became the golden couple as they fell in love. In 2019,
they had a fairytale wedding in Luttrellstown Castle, just outside of Dublin, Ireland surrounded by their friends and family.
But sadly, Sarah confirmed the pair had grown apart during an interview in April.
āI just want to say that I am divorced,ā she toldĀ Stellar Magazine.
āSometimes people grow apart and thatās okayā¦ I got to a point where I realised I couldnāt grow in the way I wanted to within this particular relationship.ā
On the Instagram announcement shared by the official account forĀ Stellar, friends of Sarah shared their love.
āSending you lots of love, dear Sar. Xxx,ā Penny McNamee wrote
Sam Frost commented: āYes Ā Girl Ā Iām very proud of you!!! Itās so beautiful to see you sparkle againĀ Ā you deserve nothing but the best xxxxxxā
āSuch a shame as I loved you guys as a couple, but as long as you are both happy thatās the important thing,ā a fan wrote.
āNo surprise there, havenāt seen them together in a while. Neither of them wearing their rings either,ā another commented.
Unfortunately, fans werenāt completely surprised by the divorce announcement after rumours began to circulate in October 2022 after James was absent from the premiere of Sarahās film,Ā Wog Boys Forever.
The final time James appeared on Sarahās Instagram was in February 2023, meanwhile Jamesā last post about Sarah was in July 2022.
A few months after the announcement, Sarah shared a snippet into her life post-divorce and thanked her friends who ābrought [her] back to life.ā
āThese two. Brought me back to life. Literally,ā she began on Instagram.
āPut a roof over my head, filled me with wine, cookies, memories, (the best) carbonara (Iāve ever had!), giggles, deep conversations, self-confidence, a new found zest for life. A safe haven on this twisty-turny journey.ā
