After a turbulent and controversial storyline that divided fans and sparked heated discussions online, Neighbours star Viva Bianca has officially bid farewell to the long-running soap. In an emotional message posted to her social media, the actress addressed the backlash surrounding her character’s recent arc and offered a heartfelt apology to viewers.
“Finally, it’s over,” Bianca wrote, referencing the intense conclusion of her character Chelsea Murphy’s polarizing journey. “I want to sincerely apologise to those who were upset or disappointed by the storyline. It was never my intention to make people feel uncomfortable or disillusioned.”
In recent months, Bianca’s character Chelsea became one of the most talked-about figures in Neighbours, involved in manipulative schemes and questionable motives that left fans with mixed feelings.

The actress admitted that the reaction from the audience had deeply affected her, but she hoped her followers would understand the difference between the character and the performer. “I know Chelsea didn’t make it easy for you to love her,” she added. “But I hope you can still support me as I move forward in my career.”
Bianca concluded her message with gratitude and hope: “Thank you to everyone who’s shown me kindness, even through the storm. I’m excited for what’s next, and I hope to bring you stories that inspire and uplift in the future.”
As Neighbours continues to evolve, fans are left reflecting on Chelsea’s tumultuous journey – a character who, love her or hate her, certainly left a lasting mark.
