They knew this day would come, but that doesn’t make it any easier for Willow (Sarah Roberts) and Alex (Zoë Ventoura) to go their separate ways.
WATCH: Home & Away: Has Alex made the right decision?
Indeed, Willow admits to Dean that while she and Alex have broken up, she isn’t handling it well.
Clearly, a distraught Willow is still deeply in love with the emergency doctor, who is farewelling the Bay to take up a new position in Queensland.

“Willow is heartbroken,” says Sarah. “She and Alex simply felt that the timing was not right for them to be together − but it’s so sad.
Neither of them wanted to end things, but it’s just about geography. And now everything has come crashing down around Willow.”
And what Willow doesn’t know is that Alex is leaving town far sooner than she thought.

After finishing her last day in the local ED, Alex quietly packs up her belongings in her office, including a photo of her and her ex-girlfriend.
However, just as Alex is about to leave town forever, Willow receives a message
on her phone that takes her completely by surprise. Don’t miss it!
