Godbold was best known for her role as Deborah Hale Regnery on The Saddle Club and the ill-fated Meg Bowman in Home and Away.[5] She also starred in Chances and Newlyweds in which she starred as Jules Carter. Following the cancellation of Newlyweds, Godbold began doing voice over work in between auditions. In 1997, she was cast as Sondra Pike in Neighbours.[6]
Godbold was the daughter of Australian broadcaster Rosemary Margan, whom she portrayed in the Graham Kennedy biopic The King.[5]
In May 2007, after The Saddle Club was picked up for a third season, Godbold was diagnosed with brain cancer, age 32. She had the tumour removed and began chemotherapy.[5]
A second brain tumour developed in January 2018, which proved to be terminal. Godbold died on 4 May 2018, aged 43, just six months after the death of her mother.[7][8] Godbold's funeral was held on 10 May 2018. Godbold and her mother are buried together at Springvale Botanical Cemetery.[9]
