Home and Away star Ada Nicodemou has opened up about her struggles with embracing her Greek heritage during her childhood.

In a piece for Stellar, Ada revealed that much of her school life was spent hiding the rich and flavourful meals her Greek mother Jenny lovingly prepared.

Ada recently found love with her Home and Away co-star James Stewart (both pictured this week), with news of their romance emerging when they were seen kissing on Anzac Day
