Next week on Hollyoaks, shocking secrets are exposed, relationships are tested, and unexpected twists shake up the village.

Ste grows anxious over the disappearance of his stray cat, Grace makes a jaw-dropping confession to Freddie,
and Maxine might inadvertently reveal Dodger’s identity to those hunting for him.
Here’s a look at what’s coming up from Monday, February 24, to Wednesday, February 26.

Freddie Learns the Truth About Grace

Freddie Roscoe (Charlie Clapham) has been playing a dangerous game,

juggling his marriage to Grace Black (Tamara Wall) while engaging in an affair with both Mercedes McQueen (Jennifer Metcalfe) and Vicky Grant (Anya Lawrence).
To complicate matters, Vicky was also romantically involved with his brother, Robbie Roscoe (Charlie Wernham).
The secret of Freddie’s infidelity has been hanging over him for months, but last week, everything came crashing down. Vicky was being blackmailed into paying £5,000, supposedly for her dream wedding venue with Robbie. However, unbeknownst to her, the mastermind behind the scheme was Dillon Ray (Nathaniel Dass), who was working at the request of Grace’s brother, Rex (Jonny Labey).
The blackmail scandal became the least of Vicky’s worries when Freddie decided to come clean. While Robbie was still reveling in his recent purchase of the garage from Mercedes, Freddie dropped a bombshell—Vicky’s lost pregnancy had actually been his child. The revelation sent Robbie reeling, leaving their sibling bond fractured.
As the fallout spreads, Grace sees an opportunity to level the playing field. She confesses to Freddie that she was behind the Christmas hit that was originally thought to be an accident. Her shocking admission was meant to save their marriage, but instead, it only fuels Freddie’s anger. However, despite his rage, Grace isn’t about to let him off the hook for his own betrayal with Vicky.

Will Maxine Reveal Her Secret Relationship with Dodger?
Secrets continue to run rampant in the village, and Maxine Minniver (Nikki Sanderson) has one of her own. She has been secretly dating Dodger Savage (Danny Mac), who returned to Hollyoaks under the guise of an undercover police officer.
Next week, Dodger reappears after a period of absence, and Maxine immediately senses that something is off. When she confronts him about what he’s hiding, he remains tight-lipped, prompting her to turn to his half-sister, Liberty Savage (Jessamy Stoddart), for insight.
Little does Maxine know, Banks (Drew Cain) has been eavesdropping on her conversation. Alarmed by what he hears, he quickly contacts Grace, urging her to dig deeper and uncover the identity of Maxine’s mystery man.
Grace devises a cunning plan to manipulate Maxine into revealing more. She approaches her with a business proposition, offering her high-end designer handbags at no cost in hopes of gaining her trust. As the two bond, Grace strategically steers the conversation toward Maxine’s love life.
In a calculated move, Grace presents Maxine with another handbag—this time, secretly planting a tracking device inside. If Maxine unknowingly leads them to Dodger, the consequences could be dire.

Did Jez Kill Ste’s Stray Cat?
Ste Hay (Kieron Richardson) never considered himself a cat lover, but this week, he has grown attached to a stray feline named Fernando. However, when the cat suddenly disappears, Ste becomes deeply concerned.
His suspicions immediately turn to Jez (Jeremy Sheffield), whom he has never fully trusted. Unable to shake his unease, Ste makes his way to the allotment, where he stumbles upon freshly disturbed soil in one of the flower beds. Fearing the worst, he begins digging, terrified of what he might uncover.
Cleo McQueen (Nadine Mulkerrin) is also drawn into the mystery when she spots Ste holding Abe’s (Tyler Conti) watch. Desperate for answers, she demands to know where he found it. Meanwhile, Ste confides in John Paul McQueen (James Sutton), expressing his growing fear that Jez might have harmed Fernando.
Darren’s Marriage Crumbles as Frankie Spirals
Darren Osborne (Ashley Taylor Dawson) has been struggling with family turmoil for months, and next week, things go from bad to worse. His son JJ (Ryan Mulvey) is in prison, his other son Oscar (Noah Holdsworth) is in the hospital, and his daughter Frankie (Isabelle Smith) has decided to move out, all while secretly battling drug addiction.

When Nancy Osborne (Jessica Fox) learns about Darren’s recent closeness with Kat (Sonia Ibrahim), she confronts him about their night together. Darren is left stunned as Nancy reveals that she no longer trusts him, shattering any hope he had for salvaging their marriage.
As Oscar wakes up, the doctors inform him that his injuries have temporarily affected his hearing. Nancy and Darren promise to support him through the recovery process, but Nancy is deeply concerned that her son may be suffering from PTSD.
Jack Osborne (Jimmy McKenna) arrives to help, but he quickly senses that something is amiss between Darren and Nancy. The tension finally reaches a breaking point when Nancy admits that she no longer sees a future for their marriage.
Feeling cornered, Darren begins to suspect that Kat has been manipulating him all along. He attempts to report her for stalking, but when he confronts her at the lake, the situation takes an intense turn. As Darren tries to pull her away from Frankie, an emotional scene unfolds, leaving Frankie furious and Kat screaming in pain.
Lucas Calls the Police on Rex
Meanwhile, Frankie moves in with Dillon and Lucas Hay (Oscar Curtis) to escape the chaos at home. However, things take a dark turn when Lucas stumbles upon a spice vape and quickly realizes that Dillon and Frankie have been using it.

The situation escalates when Rex arrives, demanding to store some bags in the house in exchange for covering their rent. Lucas is stunned to learn that Rex actually owns the house and that Dillon has been keeping this a secret from him. Alarmed by what’s happening, Lucas decides to take action—he calls the police to report Rex for storing stolen goods.
But has Lucas just put himself in even greater danger?
