Home And Away just wouldn’t be the same without Leah Patterson-Baker (Ada Nicodemou). Having starred on the hit soap for nearly 18 years, it’s hard to imagine the Bay without her.

In that time, Leah has had her fair share of troubled romances.

From the death of her first two husbands to the devastating miscarriage that tore one relationship apart, these heartbreaking moments in Leah’s love life won’t be forgotten any time soon.

Vinnie Patterson (Ryan Kwanten)

It didn’t take long for Leah to fall for larrikin local Vinnie when they lived together as housemates. They married in 2001 and soon after welcomed their son VJ into the world. However, an illegal scam landed Vinnie in jail.

Dan Baker (Tim Campbell)

After a siege in 2004 left Detective Peter Baker (Nicholas Bishop) in a coma, his brother arrived. Leah and Dan fell in love and got engaged after a plane crash. Sadly, in 2008, Dan was killed while abseiling in the US.

Elijah Johnson (Jay Laga’aia)

The local reverend piqued Leah’s interest when he offered to teach her jiujitsu. The pair were briefly engaged in 2010, but broke up when Elijah decided to go to Africa to work as a missionary.
