Neighbors revealed that it continues to add more main cast members. Who are they?
Neighbours has announced another new addition to the cast, with Lakota Johnson joining the soap as regular character Taye.
The news was shared on Neighbours‘ Instagram account, with the show posting a photo of a smiling Johnson holding the Ramsay Street sign in front of Lassiters.
“Taye is coming to town!” the soap revealed in the caption. “We’re excited to announce that Lakota Johnson will soon join the full-time cast. Connected to the Varga-Murphy family, Taye is sure to break some rules (and some hearts) on Ramsay Street.”
Fans are already beginning to speculate over who exactly Taye might be, with one commenting, “Is this the kid Cara wanted?” to which another replied, “the baby daddy”.
Another viewer suggested that Taye could be a relative of Remi’s, writing, “Please be a cousin of Remi and not a brother. Ever since the Chelsea debacle, and then Felix, I’ve been hoping Remi is an only child.”
It was also suggested that Taye could be “another love interest for Holly”, while another wrote that “Aaron needs a man”. One fan commented that he may become a “share-house occupant”, pointing out that “the others need help with the rent”.
Taye’s arrival is likely to mark another twist for the Varga-Murphy family, following the discovery that Cara has been harbouring a secret dream to have another baby.
Johnson won’t be the only new cast member on set over the coming months, as the soap has also recently announced the upcoming arrival of Sebastian ‘Seb’ Metcalfe, who has a tangled history with Krista Sinclair.
Fans will also soon see the return of original character Shane Ramsay, who will arrive alongside new character Max, who is Shane’s son.
The string of casting announcements follows the exits of long-serving characters Toadie, Nell and Hugo Rebecchi, as well as the departures of Mackenzie Hargreaves and Haz Devkar.
