Neighbours star Jodi Anasta recently revealed that she was leaving the Australian soap, after playing Elly Conway for four years.
The actress has previously spoken to Digital Spy about her "unpredictable" exit story, and her hopes that a reunion with Chloe Brennan could still be on the cards.
Now, she's exclusively opened up to us about what she has planned next, and whether she'd ever return to Australia's other big soap export Home and Away as her character Martha MacKenzie.
"I think the next part of my life will be settling back into Sydney, having time with my daughter Aleeia, reconnecting with everyone and taking a minute to really slow down," she said.
"It's been really intense, the last four years. I've absolutely loved working on Neighbours, but the fact is that I have to travel back and forth every week, I have two homes and two sets of friends. It'll be nice to have time to myself and to spend with Aleeia as well.
"And then to work on some personal projects that I've probably been putting off because I haven't had the time. I'm always doing bits and bobs in the fashion industry here and there, but there are a couple of personal projects that I'm sure you'll hear about once they're released."
What to Read Next
And what about respiring her Home and Away role, which she last played in 2010? Well, the star added: "I love Martha – I've always loved her. She's like your brother that you kick the footy around with in the back yard. Never say never.
"Who knows what the future will hold, right? I love Georgie Parker and the fact that she's my mum – that just makes me so happy. I just wish I got to act with her."
As she mentioned, Anasta wasn't actually on the soap at the same time as Parker, so it would be interesting to see their dynamic on screen were she to return.
Both Neighbours and Home and Away air on Channel 5 in the UK.
