Neighbours star Colette Mann has opened up about whether Morgana O'Reilly would ever reprise her role as Naomi Canning.
The actor, who plays Naomi's onscreen mother Sheila Canning on the Australian soap, told Digital Spy recently that if her former co-star was to make a comeback at some point in the future, it'd likely only be for another three week stint as Mann doesn't think she'd "ever come back for a long period of time."
She also revealed that O'Reilly has just bought a house with husband in New Zealand, where she films Mean Mums, so she's pretty busy.

"She loves coming back to Neighbours and she loves working with Chris [Milligan] and I – we are really, really close and have been ever since she was in the show," she continued. "She always calls me her Australian mum. I think she'd come back again but she would never come back long-term.
"If she came back again, it would be for another three weeks or something. She's done it, and she has got other jobs to do and she does a lot of theatre in New Zealand. She has also got an American agent and she goes over there and auditions for things."
