Neighbours Spoilers – Levi blames Kyle for years of suffering, as Jane’s daughter arrives
In the latest Neighbours spoilers, Jane is forced to face demons from her past, while Sheila reveals the truth about Levi.
The Neighbours storylines below will air in Australia from Monday 13th July, and in the UK three weeks later from Monday 3rd August.
Plain Jane’s Super Pain
Jane Harris’ (Annie Jones) painful secret is reason enough for a friend to contact her estranged daughter… but not all is at it seems between the pair.
This week, Jane makes the admission to close friend Terese (Rebekah Elmaloglou) that her marriage to Des (Paul Keane) has broken down.
The pair, who wed at the Lassiters Wedding Expo earlier in the year, realised that the timing wasn’t right.
“They were a great couple once, but they’ve both lived very different lives since they were together in the eighties,” Annie told TV Week.
Saddened by her friend’s news, Terese decides to call in the heavy artillery – after hunting her down on on Facebook, she contacts her estranged daughter, Nicolette Stone (Charlotte Chimes).
When Jane’s daughter arrives in Erinsborough, it becomes clear to Terese that the pair don’t exactly have the most pleasant of histories.
“Nicolette is deeply sad about the state of affairs with her mum and is resigned to the fact that they’ll never have a close relationship,” Charlotte revealed to TV Week.
As she opens up to Terese, it comes to light that Jane and Nicolette have been estranged since Nicolete came out as gay many years ago.
While it remains to be seen whether mother and daughter will reconcile, Nicolette is comforted by Terese.
“She discovers a sympathetic ear in Terese who offers a glimmer of hope.”
Neighbours recently put out a trailer for Nicolette’s arrival, and it makes it clear that there’s plenty of drama to come.

As Terese tells her that Jane is arriving back tomorrow, Nicolette tells her that “I’m the last person mum will want to talk to”.
“Now I’m afraid it might be too late to fix things“, says Jane to Paul and Terese as they try to encourage her to make amends with her estranged daughter, as Paul asks her “What exactly did happen between you two over there?”
As Nicolette tells somebody that “she’s still got it in for me“, Jane accuses Nicolette – “you don’t want me to be happy!”
Will the pair be able to put their differences aside and reconcile?
While we don’t yet know how long Nicolette will be sticking around for, what we do know is that we’ve got a lot more of Jane to come.
A couple of weeks ago it was announced that Annie Jones would be joining Neighbours full time, bringing Jane Harris back to Erinsborough in a full time capacity for the first time since she departed the show back in 1989.
Annie briefly reprised her role as “Plane Jane Superbrain” in 2005, as Annalise Hartman (Kimberley Davies) produced a documentary about past residents of Ramsay Street. She returned again in 2018 and has popped up regularly ever since – but will now be making Erinsborough her permanent home.
Sheila’s Confession
After years of hiding the truth, Sheila Canning (Colette Mann) comes clean about a dirty family secret.
Years have passed since a shocking event in Levi’s (Richie Morris) childhood left him permanently traumatised.
Sheila, who opened up to boyfriend Clive (Geoff Paine) about what happened weeks ago, feels the need to come clean this week after a family barbecue.
What follows is seething anger from Levi, who learns that Kyle (Chris Milligan) was a part of what happened to him all those years ago.
Now fractured, will the cousins be able to resolve their problems and fix their only newly reformed bond?
And will Sheila be able to put her family back together?
