She stated, "It took me a long time to decide to leave Shortland Street because it isn't easy to walk away from something you love. I also had this fear I'd never get work again ā it's a real fear. So it took me a long time to wrestle with the idea that saying no to work wasn't unwise, and that if you actually want to grow and develop as an actor you do have to stop and move on." She found her final scenes draining, "Everyone was acting around me and I was there, but my acting had basically stopped. I remember lying there thinking, 'Iām going to miss all these people.'

Tiffany was described as a "practical feminist" who would always get her man.

you realise she's possibly quite skewed and self-centred. It's obviously such a big part of
Tiffany's life that it over-rides everything else. She's not brainless, it's just her priorities. James described her as, "very heroic" and believed that she, "always puts up a fight for the underdog."
