Neighbours reveals surprising new love interest for Paul Robinson

Neighbours spoilers follow.

Neighbours schemer Paul Robinson will strike up a surprising romantic connection with Terese Willis’s mother.

As we’ve recently revealed, Terese’s estranged mum Estelle Petrides is heading to Erinsborough and will be causing plenty of drama for her daughter in the coming weeks.

In next week’s episodes on Channel 5, Terese is stunned when she finds Estelle and Paul having drinks together.

The timing couldn’t be any worse, as Terese is currently locked in a bitter divorce dispute with Paul and can’t bear to be around him.

Terese angrily confronts her mum for the perceived betrayal. With tensions running so high, it looks like Estelle’s visit to Erinsborough could be short-lived.

Estelle, who’s currently homeless, begs Terese to let her stay. Terese agrees, but she makes it clear that it’s on the strict condition that Estelle stays away from Paul.

Although Estelle promises to comply with this, it appears that she and Paul are both determined to use Terese for their schemes.

Later in the week, Terese is furious again when she finds Estelle on a date with Paul.

Estelle urges Terese to calm down, insisting that she’s only spending time with Paul to spy on him.

Terese isn’t sure whether she can trust her erratic mother, but wanting to form a genuine bond, she takes Estelle along to the plaque which was created in memory of her late son Josh.

Terese and Estelle finally share a moment of warmth together, providing some hope that they could start to see eye-to-eye.

Paul later becomes irritated when Estelle decides to respect Terese’s wishes by staying away from him.

Not backing down easily, Paul tries to tempt Estelle with an expensive bracelet.

Although Estelle attempts to refuse, greed soon gets the better of her.

After another argument with Terese, Estelle returns to the dark side and visits Paul. Where will this lead?

Neighbours bosses have cast Maria Mercedes in the role of Estelle.

The actress already has a history with the show, as she played Carmella Cammeniti’s mother Lucia for guest appearances between 2004 and 2007.

Neighbours airs weekdays at 1.45pm and 6pm on Channel 5 and streams on My5. In Australia, the show airs Mondays to Thursdays at 6.30pm on 10 Peach and streams on 10 Play.
