Actor Krista Vendy is reprising her role, with the soap’s official Instagram account sharing a photo of her on set holding a Ramsay Street sign.

Tess initially appeared between 1999 and 2001, during which time the schoolteacher ended her marriage to evil Brendan, before embarking on an affair with Darcy. She made a brief return in 2023 as part of the school protest storyline.
“If only you knew WHY Tess is back!” script producer Shane Isheev teased on social media, adding a smirking face emoji.
