It may be an odd year for celebrating birthdays, but Ada Nicodemou’s son Johnas isn’t letting that get him down.

Home and Away star Ada, 43, took to Instagram on Sunday to share a gorgeous photo of her son having a great time celebrating his eighth birthday, posing front of a cake shaped like a soccer ball.
“Despite not being able to have a big birthday party Johnas had a great day with an even better cake,” Ada captioned the shot.
Many of Ada’s followers commented, wishing Johnas a happy birthday while Ada’s co-star Lynne McGranger wrote, “Looks gorgeous.”
Ada, who is now happily in a relationship with millionaire businessman Adam Rigby, shares Johnas with her ex-husband, Chrys Xipolitas. The former couple split in 2015.
The doting mum regularly shares snaps of her son and has opened up about the struggles of parenting in the past, including the one aspect that really annoys her.
“I always find it amazing when you see dads out and they’re looking after the kids and they always say to the mum, ‘Oh aren’t you lucky?’ It annoys the crap out of me! Like what do you mean, it’s his child too!” Ada told Now To Love in March 2019.
The Home and Away star added that she, like many mums, puts pressure on herself to be on top of everything when it comes to parenting duties.
“I am a control freak, I put a lot of pressure on myself to be the perfect mum, to be the perfect housewife, the perfect worker and I don’t think men do that,” she admitted.
Earlier this year when the COVID-9 global pandemic shut down filming on Home and Away, Ada relished spending time with her little man.
“It’s been nice having so much time with him, the great conversations and the laughs and an endless supply of cuddles, it’s been really nice,” she told PerthNow.
“I did have seven weeks off last year and went on holidays, my brother got married, but being at home like this is so different.”
