Playing troubled character Bella on the Aussie soap has seen the star portray a series of disruptive and divisive storylines throughout her four-year tenure.
Her character is often seen lashing out and causing trouble after the trauma she endured since her horrifying showdown with sinister Tommy.
But star Courtney has now admitted she finds it a chore when some fans can’t separate her from her alter ego and send her abuse online.

She told Metro.co.uk: “I was thinking about this the other day. I try not to dabble in fan feedback for I have a whole life separate to Bels.
“However, when I have spontaneously dabbled in reading comments, I find many fans are frustrated by Bel.
“Fair enough, she can be an absolute brat. However, I think you can justify her behaviour. Many non- Bella fans like to direct their annoyance at me, the actor, which is just laughable.”
