Home and Away airs Kirby Aramoana’s exit storyline next week, as she accepts a life-changing opportunity and heads out of Summer Bay for good.
Kirby is overjoyed when she learns that the hype surrounding her new direction as a solo artist has led to an unexpected opportunity she can’t turn down.

“Justin learns that The Chosen – a globally successful band – want Kirby to join them on their new tour,” our Home and Away source explains.
“Kirby’s overwhelmed by the news, as it’s a huge commitment which would see her performing at concerts for the next year. But Justin is desperate for Kirby to see that she can handle the pressure – she has potential to be a huge star.”
When Kirby’s former Lyrik bandmate Remi Carter finds out about the opportunity, he also encourages her to grab it with both hands. He points out that, if Kirby doesn’t take this chance, she’ll always be wondering about what could have been.
Before long, Kirby and Justin arrange to meet with The Chosen’s management team to discuss next steps. After talking everything through, Kirby signs up for the year-long tour, but this will mean leaving Summer Bay for good…
