Omg I'm crying! World's biggest congratulations. You beautiful couple,' gushed Kyly Clarke. 

'THE BEST,' added Liz Cantor. 

In October 2024, Ada revealed how her Home and Away co-stars discovered her off-screen relationship with James Stewart.

The soap opera stars, whose characters are married on the Channel Seven show, were first linked earlier this year when they were seen sharing a kiss on Anzac Day 2024 before Ada confirmed their romance in a magazine interview.

Speaking on Mamamia's No Filter podcast, the actress revealed she had only told a small group of people that she was 'close with' on set before 'word got around' about the couple's off-screen relationship.

'I figured I didn't need to tell anyone else,' she explained.

'We didn't need a group email, people just worked it out.'

Elsewhere in the interview, Ada admitted growing feelings for her television co-star James was 'weird' at first.

Jimmy and I have known each other for 25 to 30 years and there were no feelings for a really, really long time. So I was shocked when I started having feelings,' she said.

'There was this chemistry for the first time — this spark that happened that wasn't there before and it was weird.'

In July 2024, Ada finally broke her silence on her romance with James after months of speculation.

The lovebirds were first linked earlier this year when they were seen sharing a kiss on Anzac Day that year.

It has since been claimed that things are getting serious between the pair and they are considering moving in together - but they remained tight-lipped about their romance.

Ada confirmed she was dating her longtime co-star James in a magazine interview, describing their romance as 'unexpected'.

'Jimmy and I are together, yes. It's only early days. It's very recent and unexpected. I'm super happy. It's really lovely,' she told Stellar Magazine. 

But she insisted their Home And Away characters Leah Patterson and Justin Morgan getting married on-screen was not an early sign of their real-life romance.

The couple began dating after Ada split from her ex-partner Adam Rigby just before Christmas last year and James finalised his divorce from Sarah Roberts in March 2024.
