Byron Stone (Joe Klocek) will leave Neighbors shortly before the show’s final episode, despite having only been rocked in Erinsborough a few weeks ago.
We don’t cry, we swear.
The character, as viewers know, was introduced as part of a mystery plot because he cherished a big secret.
In his debut scenes, he reconnected with mother Jane Harris (Annie Jones) and sister Nicolette (Charlotte Chimes), before landing a job at Toadie‘s (Ryan Moloney) law firm.
But it was later revealed that Byron was working as an escort, going by the name Harvey J, and that one of his clients, named Danielle, was an old flame of Clive Gibbons (Geoff Paine).
Byron eventually told Jane about Clive’s flirtation with Danielle, but in doing so he was… forced to reveal to his mother that he is an escort. Jane has had a hard time with her son’s admission, and this has led to a huge amount of conflict between the two.
Monday’s (July 25) offer, the first of the last soap ever, saw Byron decide to leave Ramsay Streetas he is planning a trip to Cape Town with one of his clients.
He told Jane that some distance would be good for them, but Jane wasn’t sure and encouraged him to stay. Nicolette meanwhile also begged her brother to stay in Erinsborough, but it was no good.
Byron has made a decision and we can’t be sad about it anymore.
The character is packed with potential and has settled into the soap quite well in such a short amount of time, something Neighbors has been excelling at lately – in terms of newcomers.
We will miss you, Byron! And everything else you could have been.
The Neighbors’ Last Week continues on Tuesday, July 26 at 1:45 PM and 6 PM on channel 5.
