The calm waves of Summer Bay are about to crash hard in one of Home and Away’s most emotional twists of the year. Cohen’s decision to end his relationship with Roo has left fans devastated, but the reason behind his heartbreaking choice runs much deeper than anyone imagined — and it all comes down to a shocking truth about his father.

A Goodbye with Hidden Pain

For weeks, viewers sensed something was off between Cohen and Roo. Their connection, once full of warmth and trust, began to unravel without explanation. In this week’s episode, Cohen finally tells Roo it’s over. The breakup is quiet but devastating, with Roo left confused and heartbroken as Cohen walks away without offering a real reason.

But behind the scenes, Cohen’s motive is rooted in something far more complex. He isn’t leaving Roo because he’s fallen out of love. He’s leaving because he believes it’s time to reconnect with his estranged father — the man who abandoned him years ago.

What Cohen doesn’t know, however, is that the man he’s trying to find may not be who he thinks he is.

The Shocking Truth About Cohen’s Father

Insiders have hinted that the upcoming episodes will completely rewrite Cohen’s backstory. The truth about his father’s identity is said to “change everything viewers know about him,” and could even link to some of the Bay’s longest-standing families.

Rumors are already swirling that Cohen’s father may be someone already living in Summer Bay — someone whose past is entangled with Roo’s own. Fans online have gone into overdrive, suggesting that the shocking reveal could expose an old secret Roo has tried desperately to bury.

One fan wrote, “If Cohen’s dad is connected to Roo in the way I think, this is going to blow up the entire Bay.” Another added, “This storyline has major Home and Away history vibes. I can’t believe how good it’s getting!”

Love, Loyalty, and Betrayal

Cohen’s emotional turmoil will only intensify as he learns the devastating truth. The man he’s searching for may not be a hero from his past — but someone with a dark connection that could destroy his future.

Meanwhile, Roo will face her own painful reckoning as secrets from long ago resurface, forcing her to confront whether she ever really knew the man she loved.

A Storyline That Redefines Summer Bay

Producers promise that this arc will “change the way fans see both Cohen and Roo forever.” With betrayal, family secrets, and heartbreak colliding, the coming episodes are set to deliver some of Home and Away’s most explosive drama yet.

One thing is certain — when Cohen finally learns the truth about his father, it won’t just break hearts. It will rewrite family history in Summer Bay forever.
