'Home and Away' star Tessa James has confirmed that she has left the soap.
James, who plays Nicole Franklin, has filmed her final scenes and is keen on a Hollywood career.
She told New Idea: "I was at 'Home and Away' for three-and-a-half-years, so it's good to be finished and get to be who I am, and do what I've wanted to do for so long."
James recently announced her engagement to rugby league player Nate Myles.
