After leaving Home and Away in the late 1990s, Rebekah joined the cast of Neighbors in 2013 and held the role until the show’s cancellation in 2022, but returned the following year for the Amazon revival.

Rebekah recently revealed she was “a little annoyed” when Neighbors was put back on Amazon not long after she moved.

When it was announced that the long-running soap opera was being axed, Rebekah left for a new life in country NSW, only to move back to Melbourne when the reboot was confirmed.

The mother-of-two planned to move to the mid-North Coast with her husband Kane Baker and son Kai to be closer to her parents.

Rebekah made one independent film, but otherwise had some downtime during the month-long hiatus from Neighbors before seizing the opportunity to rejoin the show.

“We were just grieving,” she said of the show’s cancellation.

“I was like, ‘I don’t care if I don’t work right now.’ So I never got to that point thinking, ‘What if there’s no work for me?'” she added.

News of Neighbors being axed made headlines around the world in March 2022, when Channel 10 and producers Fremantle announced the show would be ending after 37 years.

But heartbroken fans got relief just four months after the finale aired in July, when Amazon opted to reboot the famous soap.
