Ada Nicodemou has been spotted for the first time since photos of the actress kissing co-star James Stewart surfaced, confirming their secret romance.
The Home And Away star, 46, whose split from partner-of-eight-years Adam Rigby became public last week, was spotted enjoying a day to herself as she went shopping at Westfield in Sydney on Wednesday.
Looking chic in a denim midi-dress and black leather sneakers, the mother-of-one splashed her cash on makeup and skincare products.
She completed her look with gold necklaces, a matching watch and a cross-body handbag by Louis Vuitton worth around $4,100.
For makeup, the soap star enhanced her age-defying features with dewy foundation, blush, mascara and a slick of taupe lipstick.

Earlier in the day, Ada was spotted parking her car outside the shopping centre and climbing out of the driver’s seat while chatting on the phone.
She pulled a number of animated expressions as she chatted away, before closing the door and making her way inside the centre.
It’s the first time Ada has been sighted since New Idea magazine published photos of the brunette kissing her on-screen lover James Stewart – who outside a Sydney pub on April 25.

The pair were reportedly seen enjoying Anzac Day drinks with friends at the Royal hotel Randwick, before enjoying a romantic dinner at a nearby Italian restaurant.
As the night came to an end, the couple took a stroll before James pulled Ada in for a steamy kiss.
Days earlier, on April 20, James’ ex-wife Sarah Roberts confirmed to Stellar magazine she and the actor had split after five years of marriage, and that their divorce had been finalised in March.

‘I just want to say that I am divorced,’ she told the publication, adding: ‘Sometimes people grow apart and that’s okay… I got to a point where I realised I couldn’t grow in the way I wanted to within this particular relationship.’
On April 7, Ada and James were also spotted enjoying a day out at Luna Park with their respective children.
In a cosy photo of the outing that surfaced earlier this week, James sat opposite Ada at a table at the theme park, next to his daughter Scout, 11, who he shares with ex Jessica Marais.

Rumours of James and Ada’s romance first emerged over the weekend after sources close to the pair said their on-screen chemistry had blossomed into a real-life connection.
The romance however only commenced after Jame’s divorce from Sarah.
Ada was previously in an eight-year relationship with Sydney businessman Adam Rigby, but the couple reportedly parted ways at the end of 2022.
Despite the separation, insiders close to the former couple have revealed the pair share no bad blood and are on good terms.
