Does Willow die in Home and Away?
The last few seconds of the dramatic Home and Away Season Return saw Colby forced to make the decision between girlfriend Chelsea and sister Bella, as Ross held the two at gunpoint in the bush.
Refusing to make such a difficult decision, Colby dived at Ross, causing Ross to shoot at him – but he missed, shooting Willow instead, an innocent bystander caught in the crossfire!
With a bullet wound to the chest, and stuck out in the middle of the National Park, many miles from the nearest hospital, things don’t look good for Willow.
Willow first arrived in Summer Bay in 2017, after her grandmother had brought her car in for a service at Summer Bay Auto, unaware that Willow had stashed $30,000 in it!
In a strange turn of events that can only happen in Summer Bay, she tied Justin up in the garage overnight in a desperate attempt to try and retrieve her lost money, and a few short months later the two of them were together, and she was making Summer Bay her home.
Now, less than 2 years and plenty of drama later, will Home and Away’s first week back for 2019 prove to be Willow’s last?
The episode spoilers for the first few weeks don’t give much away, with Willow’s name making just two appearance between now and Thursday 28th.
Next Monday’s episode spoiler is “With no change in Willow’s condition, Dean is desperate for answers”, suggesting she’s in for a difficult time, and will remain in hospital in a bad way for at least the next week.
Next Tuesday’s spoiler reads “Will Willow pull through a second operation?”, so clearly a first operation obviously isn’t enough to save her. What happens if a second isn’t either…?
Thankfully, Willow fans don’t need to worry. With so many photos of the cast filming at Palm Beach, the real life home of Summer Bay in the Northern Beaches, appearing in the press and online, it’s often easy to tell when cast are still filming, or in some cases, even get a glimpse of their departure scenes being filmed.
In the case of Willow, played by Sarah Roberts, she’s been spotted filming numerous times in the latter months of 2018, and as recently as the 7th February, suggesting she pulls through and will be a part of the show for much more time to come.
She may have a fight on her hands, and will spend the first few months of the year recovering from her bullet wound, but we definitely haven’t seen the last of feisty Willow Harris.
Can the same be said for Chelsea and Bella? Although Ross escaped into the Bush at the end of Monday’s dramatic return, he’s surely not going to give up that easily…
And even if he doesn’t come back to exact revenge on Colby and the ones closest to him, will Chelsea still be willing to stick around after everything that’s happened?
