Home and Away spoilers follow.

Home and Away has added Eden and Levi Fowler's sister Abigail to its core cast.

The soap has confirmed that newcomer Hailey Pinto will arrive on-screen later this year as Abigail Fowler, who is described as "sassy, confident and headstrong".

Her self-assured personality hides a complex and poignant backstory for the character, which will slowly be rolled out as viewers learn about her struggles.

Hailey's Home and Away role came from her first-ever TV audition, after moving to Sydney from her native Switzerland to pursue acting.

Abigail's arrival comes during a tumultuous time for her siblings, as Levi has been facing drama in his affair-turned-relationship with Mackenzie Booth.

Mac has struggled to trust Levi given how their relationship started, forcing him to question their future together unless she drops her suspicions.

Upcoming scenes will see Levi and Mackenzie's lives on the line when Iluka Hudson's enemies arrive in Summer Bay and take them hostage.

While Levi and Mackenzie's lives are filled with drama on-screen, real-life cast members Tristan Gorey and Emily Weir recently shared their close friendship off-screen.

Elsewhere, Eden will consider leaving Summer Bay in upcoming scenes following her row with Felicity Newman. It will be up to Cash Newman to convince Eden to stay when she admits she has nothing left in Summer Bay.

How will the arrival of Eden and Levi's sibling Abigail shake up their lives?

Home and Away airs weekdays at 1.45pm on Channel 5, with repeat screenings at 6pm on 5STAR and first look screenings at 6.30pm on 5STAR. Selected classic episodes are available via Prime Video in the UK.

In Australia, the show airs Mondays to Thursdays at 7pm on Channel 7 and streams on 7Plus.

Hailey Pinto is set to make waves as a newcomer in Summer Bay.

The fresh-faced actress, 23, is set to play Abigail Fowler on the beloved soap Home and Away, portraying the sister of Eden (Stephanie Panozzo) and Levi Fowler (Tristan Gorey).

Abigail is set to shake up the show, with Pinto welcoming the acting challenge.

"My character is Abigail Fowler, I can't say too much, but she's the youngest of the Fowler siblings, and she's very sassy and headstrong, very energetic," Pinto said.

"She comes to the bay with a lot of her own personal demons she has to fight, and she definitely brings a lot of drama."

Pinto was first spotted filming for the show in March in what is her first big job after starting acting school in 2020.

"I have been doing acting classes with Grant Thompson. So, I feel like confident but still a little nervous," she said.

"For a year and a bit, I was just trying to get back on my feet after the pandemic. Then I got with an agent, and three months after signing, I got the audition, and booked it."

Pinto said she did a lot of research before she took on the role, as she wanted to present her character with care, and portray her as 'honestly' as she can on screen.

The star said she already had a great working relationship with co-stars, Gorey and Panozzo.

"I absolutely love my siblings (on the show), Levi and Eden, I've been able to work with them a lot. I have so much love for them already."

Pinto said off-screen, real-life family thought it was 'surreal' to see her on TV, especially on a show as iconic as Home and Away, which has both local and international fanbases.

She said she was looking forward to this year's Logie Awards, which will be held on August 18 at The Star in Sydney.

"I don't know what to expect, but I'm very excited," Pinto said.
