Speaking about the ultimate act of betrayal, Theo explained: “They found solace in each other, but of course when Hunter finds out the truth, in true Hollyoaks style he’s gobsmacked and speechless.

“He’s obviously angry given the situation, he’s torn about whether to do the right thing and tell Prince, or can he move on and let him be happy?”
Whether or not Olivia and Prince become husband and wife remains to be seen, but there appears to more to Hunter’s return.

“I did see Malique [Thompson-Dwyer] quite a lot since I was last at Hollyoaks, we would go to the gym together and hang out, and Chelsee [Healey] I saw every now and then, but every time we all get in the same room and see each other it’s all love so great to see them regularly again.”
Hunter was last seen on screen back in 2018 when he fleed the village to move to Bright with his girlfriend Asha Kaur (Rukku Nahar).
Before his exit, Hunter encountered a woman at Mac Nightingale’s care facility, whom he soon discovered was his former partner Neeta’s sister Asha.
