Mercedes McQueen (Jennifer Metcalfe) has been unable to resist Liam Donovan’s (Jude Monk McGowan) charms in Hollyoaks and, as a result, the pair have embarked on a full-blown affair. However, they’re set to be caught out in the coming episodes — but which village resident is it that rumbles them?
With Liam being the only person she can speak to about the hit-and-run, Mercedes has found herself in his arms time and again. Their shared secret resulted in the pair developing feelings for one another and, before long, they gave into temptation — and a steamy summer affair has since ensued.
In the coming episodes, Sylver (David Tag) and Bobby take a trip to Blackpool. Mercedes takes advantage of their absence by having Liam round to her place so that she can spend some time with her lover.
Later, Nana (Diane Langton) gets more than she bargained for when she stumbles upon Liam’s leopard print underwear. That’s not all, as she also hears Mercedes and Liam together in the bedroom.
Nana confronts Mercedes over her discovery, but the young woman attempts to save her own skin by telling her that the underwear is a present for Sylver.
Whether Nana believes her or not remains to be seen, but either way that proves to be the least of her worries, as Breda (Moya Brady) overhears her on the phone to Liam — admitting to an affair!
Will Sylver get wind of Mercedes’ affair with Liam? Mercy has made every effort to save her marriage, but her relationship with Liam would be undoubtedly the last straw for Sylver.
If Breda decides against telling Sylver, will she instead take drastic action?
