Neighbours Spoilers: Nicky Whelan and Benji Hart to Make Surprise Return?

It looks like two Neighbours fan favorites might be making their way back to the small screen. New reports indicate that former stars Nicky Whelan and Benjamin Hart might be making a surprise return to the show.

Nicky played Pepper Steiger on the long-running Australian show. The 36-year-old actress recently admitted that still hopes that she and her on-screen partner Benjamin Hart, who played Adam Rhodes, would be reunited on the show. In fact, it might still happen in the future.

According to Britain’s Express, Nicky explained, “I stay in contact with Benji Hart, he is one of my dearest friends to this day and we always talk about going back.”

She also added that anything can still happen. Pepper was last seen leaving for Cairns after she landed a new job. She was forced to say goodbye to Adams, even though he had planned to propose to her.

Nick further said, “It would be so weird to go back and play an Australian character. I don’t know if they want Pepper back. I mean, you never know… It could happen, for sure!”
