Home and Away has hinted at yet another setback for Brody Morgan and Simone Bedford as they try to start a new life as a proper couple.

The show's latest Australian episode saw the atmosphere turn highly awkward for Brody (Jackson Heywood) and Simone (Emily Eskell) as the issue of future living arrangements came to light.

Wednesday's episode on Channel 7 in Australia (April 24) saw Brody and Simone continue to struggle with the judgement they're facing from disapproving locals in Summer Bay after their affair.

Irene Roberts couldn't resist making a comment about how quickly they're proceeding with their relationship following Brody's acrimonious split from his wife Ziggy.

Meanwhile, Dean Thompson also caused trouble by disrupting Bella Nixon's latest study session with Simone – insisting that she and Colby should have nothing to do with the woman who betrayed Ziggy.

Spending some time alone at the cottage later, Brody tried to take Simone's mind off the backlash and suggested she should stay the night, rather than heading back home to the caravan park.

Simone was visibly uncomfortable over the suggestion, well aware that the cottage was where Brody and Ziggy were building their own life as a couple just a few weeks ago.

Although Simone does end up staying over, this only fans the flames further with Brody's family – with Mason and Justin both fearing that things are moving far too quickly for the new couple.

With few people in the Bay willing to give Brody and Simone's relationship the time of day, and no easy way forward for them to live under the same roof, is this another sign that they could be driven out?

Home and Away fans in the UK will see these scenes on Tuesday, May 14 on Channel 5.

Home and Away airs weekdays at 1.15pm and 6pm on Channel 5 (UK) and Mondays to Thursdays at 7pm on Channel 7 (Australia).
