In November 2007, an arrest warrant was issued for Isabel after she joined other protesters, including Heroes star Hayden Panettierre, protested against the slaughter of whales. The group were charged with "interfering with international commerce", after they hindered a Japanese whaling fleet in the Southern Ocean.
Isabel(On working with the rest of the cast of Home and Away): It's been so great. Everyone has been really welcoming. All the cast and crew are really down to earth people because there are a lot of kids in the cast. It was lovely to meet some nice friends, especially not knowing anyone in Sydney.
Isabel: I play Tasha Andrews. My character is quite an unusual girl. She's a bit of a Jane Doe, a mystery girl. She's discovered the beach and no one knows who she is or where she's from. It's all quite bizarre how she just turns up and as the storyline unfolds it's revealed she's a very withdrawn, naive, fearful kind of character, nearly animalistic. She's got these tribal instincts and she has aggressive outbursts like she's had some sort of trauma. No one knows where her parents are and no one can understand her because she speaks pig Latin, which is like a coded language.
