 Sarah Roberts cosied up to her new boyfriend Jake Lesu as the pair shared a heartfelt goodbye in Canada, ahead of him working abroad for several months.

The former Home and Away star, 41, shared a heartfelt gallery of photos to social media on Tuesday, which captured her spending some quality time with the Australian cinematographer in the Canadian wilderness, ahead of his move.

One sweet photo captured Jake tenderly cradling Sarah and kissing her cheek, as the lovers posed in front of a scenic mountainside creek.

Another stunning shot showed Sarah reciprocating by kissing Jake's face as the pair happily posed alongside a ski lift in the Vancouver mountains.

She captioned the photos with some bittersweet words: 'Can we just float here for a while longer please? So lucky to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard. So proud of my human. 

'The Canadian film industry are so lucky to have your hands on their tools. I'm gonna miss them on me but will take one for the team to see you soar! #untilAugust.'

Sarah and Jake, a veteran cameraman who has worked on many big budget movies including Mad Max: Fury Road and Thor: Love and Thunder, went public with their romance in June last year. 

The actress was spotted hand-in-hand with her new boyfriend while out and about in Sydney, marking the first time she's been seen publicly with a partner since her 2023 divorce from her Home and Away co-star James Stewart.

The pair appeared smitten as they strolled the streets, grabbed food, and packed on the PDA while window shopping.

It was a new chapter for the actor and DJ, who admitted in a raw interview with Stellar magazine that her marriage breakdown had left her emotionally shattered.

'I've been really afraid of talking about this because of what I've felt to be the stigma and shame around it. But I just want to say that I am divorced,' she said in April 2024.

Sarah and James met on the Home and Away set in 2017, quickly falling in love before tying the knot in a fairy-tale wedding in Ireland in 2019

But behind closed doors, cracks soon started to appear.

'I'll never speak on anyone else's behalf, but my belief in marriage is that two people grow and learn from each other together,' she said.

It is Sarah's first public romance since her divorce from her actor husband James Stewart

Sometimes people just grow apart, and that's OK.'

While Stewart has since moved on with his Home and Away co-star Ada Nicodemou – a pairing that stunned fans when it was revealed - Sarah is now carving out a path of her own. 

According to New Idea, Jake works as a Steadicam operator and 'occasional pilot', and recently showcased his artwork at an exhibition titled A Piece of Art in Crows Nest.

Speaking about her new romance, Sarah recently said: 'I feel grateful that I found him, because he's allowed me to grow in beautiful and unexpected ways. 

'But if I didn't have that, I would still be OK. Because I finally found myself, as clichéd as that may sound.'

Sarah rose to fame playing the character of Willow on Home and Away from 2017 to 2021 and recently revealed she still keeps close with her former soap co-stars - and why Hollywood is her next stop.

'One of my best friends was one of my cast mates on Neighbours. That goes way back. Another one of my best friends, Emily Weir, she's from Home and Away,' Sarah previously told Daily Mail.

'I've also made friends with a lot of the new cast from Home and Away because Emily is friends with them and we all hang out together.
