Neighbours couple Wendy and Andrew Rodwell hit the rocks next week.

The pair's marriage comes under serious strain when Wendy is caught out for hiding the fact that she's married.

Ever since starting university as a mature student, Wendy has tried to fit in with the younger crowd. She has let her new friends believe that she's single and doesn't have any children.

Later this week, Wendy's lies start to backfire when her husband Andrew and daughter Sadie catch her hosting a wild house party.

What to Read Next

Wendy reluctantly comes clean about her efforts to impress the other students by pretending to be younger. However, she still notably keeps quiet about how her friends don't know Andrew and Sadie exist.

In follow-on scenes next week, Cara Varga-Murphy accidentally says too much when she openly questions Andrew's forgiving stance.

Unaware that Wendy is still hiding the extent of her lies, Cara comments that she expected Andrew to be more upset over his wife pretending to be single at uni.

This revelation deeply upsets Andrew, even when Wendy brushes it off as a silly game that she was playing to fit in. Andrew disagrees, convinced that Wendy would have kept up the pretence for much longer if she hadn't been busted.

As Andrew pushes Wendy to explain her actions, she admits that it was fun to play out a different life scenario for a while. This makes Andrew feel worse, as he fears that he and Sadie don't exist in Wendy's dream life.

Later, Wendy worries that Andrew has left her when it's past midnight and he still hasn't returned home from work. She's unable to reach him for an explanation – is she right to fear the worst?

Neighbours airs these scenes on Monday, July 22.
