The pair filmed their scene together in London, where they both now live. And Holly toasted to the end of Neighbours from Mykonos yesterday, where she’s with little sister – and fellow former Neighbours star – Olympia, who is honeymooning on the Greek isle with AFL star Thomas Bellchambers.“End of an era. Celebrating with Paige! Ahahhaha That Flick sure gets around! Love from Greece! Crashed the honeymoon innit!! Sorry bout the extra 4 wheels @OlympiaValance& Uncle Thomas!” Valance tweeted. Both went on to enjoy successful musical careers after Neighbours, with Imbruglia releasing six albums including the worldwide smash Left of the Middle. Valance’s musical career burned bright but briefly, with a string of hit singles in the early noughties before she largely turned her back on performing. Fellow musical success stories Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan also reprised their roles as Scott and Charlene for the finale – but while their return formed a key part of Ten’s publicity for the TV event, Valance and Imbruglia’s cameos were kept under wraps and only rumoured about. While Imbruglia still releases music and tours – her most recent album was last year’s Firebird – Valance has largely kept a low public profile since marrying billionaire property developer Nick Candy in 2012. She has popped up in some surprising places – like former US President Donald Trump’s Mar-A-Lago estate in April, where she and Candy cosied up for a meet-and-greet with the man himself. More recently, the couple were photographed attending the UK Conservative Party’s Summer Ball.Other former Neighbours stars returning to see off the soap after 37 years and 8903 episodes included Guy Pearce, Peter O’ Brien, Natalie Bassingthwaighte, Olympia Valance, Ian Smith, Daniel MacPherson and many more.
