Hollyoaks to reveal father of Leah’s baby in time jump mystery
Hollyoaks spoilers follow.
Hollyoaks is set to reveal the father of Leah Barnes’ baby next week, in an intriguing time jump mystery.
Last week’s episodes saw Ste and James reunite, but a huge car explosion shortly after left both of their fates up in the air.
The soap then jumped forward a year in time, and Monday’s episode revealed where all the village residents are now.

It was confirmed that James had sadly died in the explosion and Ste had been in a coma ever since – but at the end of the episode he was brought round by the doctors.
Elsewhere, it has also been an eventful year for Ste’s daughter Leah, who was revealed to be heavily pregnant after the time jump.
In Monday’s episode, the teenager went into labour and gave birth to her baby with Leela by her side, while calling for her dad.
But what was left up in the air was who the father of Leah’s baby is. Leela suggested that someone phone Charlie when Leah went into labour, but it seems things might not be as simple as that – as Dillon looked particularly concerned about the baby.

In scenes that will air next week, Rex visits Ste in hospital, in the hope that a more positive relationship will form between them. He also reveals that he has had some news about his family tree recently.
Viewers will remember that before the time jump, Rex tried to save lives by removing Dave’s bomb from Ste’s car, but Ste and James used Donny’s car instead, which also had a bomb underneath.
Meanwhile, Leah has big news for Ste, who is still recovering, as she wants him to look after her newborn child.

Ste is torn about this and tells Leah that he can't look after her child, but Tony gives him some words of encouragement and reminds his friend that he has never given up on his family.
Also next week, viewers will find out once and for all who the father of Leah’s baby is, and there could be a surprise in store.
The secret dad will be left concerned about his future and is worried that his partner will find out the truth.
Who is the dad, and what will be the consequences?
