Nicodemou was married to Chrys Xipolitas for nine years. They reportedly split briefly in 2010 before reconciling and welcoming a son, Johnas, in August 2012.
The actress, who also starred in the 1990s soap opera Heartbreak High, permanently split from Xipolitas and dated businessman Adam Rigby for about eight years.

The news that Stewart and Nicodemou are getting closer comes after his ex Sarah Roberts, a Home and Away alum, confirmed to Stellar magazine that the couple had divorced..
“I just want to say that I’m divorced,” she told the publication.
“Sometimes people grow apart and that’s okay… I got to a point where I realized I couldn’t grow the way I wanted to within this particular relationship.”
Roberts and Stewart married in 2019 after getting engaged in November 2018. He proposed to her at the restaurant where they had their first date a year earlier.
The couple married at Luttrellstown Castle, outside Dublin, Ireland, in July 2019.
Confirmation of Roberts’ divorce came after years of speculation about the couple’s split.
The rumors first surfaced after Stewart was absent from the premiere of his film Wog Boys Forever in Melbourne in October 2022.
“He was nowhere to be seen on the red carpet” and apparently no longer followed his wife’s Instagram account, reports suggested.
At the time, Roberts’ agent denied they had broken up.
The couple later put the rumors to rest when Roberts proudly showed off her wedding ring at the AACTA Awards in December of that year.
Speaking to Now To Love at the time, she also dismissed breakup rumours.
