Hollyoaks spoilers: James Nightingale has a BIG confession for fiancé Ste Hay!

James Nightingale comes clean to his fiancé Ste Hay in Hollyoaks.

James Nightingale (Gregory Finnegan) has some SHOCKING news for his fiancé, Ste Hay (Kieron Richardson) in tonight’s Hollyoaks on at 6.30pm (See our TV Guide for full listings). 

Earlier on Ste has a morning of dance lessons planned in preparation for his forthcoming wedding to James. 

Ste insists that James needs to be there so they can practice together but James tells him he can’t come because he has a business meeting he needs to attend. 

Refusing to take no for an answer, Ste arranges for James’s legal assistant, Maxine Minniver (Nikki Sanderson) to step in and handle his lover’s important meeting.

However, feeling cornered James has a sudden confession to make. 

He breaks the news to Ste that his ‘business client’ is actually prison inmate, Eric Foster (Angus Castle-Doughty). 

Ste is hurt and angry that James would take on evil Eric as a client and gives James an ultimatum — either he chooses his career and Eric or his family because he can’t have both.

Meanwhile, it’s the morning after the night before and an upset Mercedes McQueen (Jennifer Metcalfe) admits to her family that she may have ruined things with her boyfriend Felix Westwood (Richard Blackwood). 

In yesterday’s episode, Felix stunned Mercy when he dropped the L-bomb and told her he loved her. 

However her reaction was cold to say the least! 

Tonight, and after some words of wisdom from her family, Mercedes sets out to win her man back.

But is it too little too late?

Elsewhere, Juliet Nightingale (Niamh Blackshaw) leaves her mum, Donna-Marie Quinn (Lucy-Jo Hudson) feeling crushed when she breaks the news that Peri Lomax (Ruby O’Donnell) will be the one going with her for her cancer treatment, and not Donna-Marie.

Leela Lomax (Kirsty Leigh-Porter) wants to cheer Donna-Marie up and suggests they have a family party to wave the girls off.

Meanwhile, during drinks with the lads, Romeo Nightingale (Owen Warner) confesses that he wants to be in a proper relationship with Rayne (Jemma Donovan). 

His mates, Prince McQueen (Malique Thompson-Dwyer), Hunter McQueen (Theo Graham) and Tom Cunningham (Ellis Hollins) all offer love-struck Romeo some words of wisdom on how to show Rayne his true feelings.
