Over on Neighbours, Rhys Lawson delivers devastating news to new parents Vanessa Villante and Lucas Fitzgerald.
Vanessa (Alin Sumarwata) and Lucas (Scott Major) are on a high following the arrival of their baby son Patrick, but they don't realise that the doctors have concerns for the newborn after discovering that he has an irregular heartbeat.
Rhys (Ben Barber) tells the pair that Patrick needs further tests, but he covers up the severity of the situation until it's confirmed that the youngster has a potentially fatal heart condition.
Although Rhys is keen to support his fiancée, he can't help but feel isolated as Vanessa and Lucas put on a united front and comfort each other.
In the end, Vanessa decides to call off her engagement to Rhys, feeling that Patrick needs her full attention at the moment. Will Rhys be able to change her mind?
