Is there a chance that Ste isn't the father, and that Sinead is lying to keep her affair with Tony a secret?

Is there a chance that Ste isn't the father, and that Sinead is lying to keep her affair with Tony a secret? All the articles are making it seem as if Sinead honestly believe Ste is the father but knowing Sinead she could be lying also there are spoilers that are hinting that the affair comes out on Diane and Tony wedding day, so I'm not sure.

On soaps gay semen is simply too powerful, one night of drunken sex equates a baby all the time. Sorry but Hollyoaks is goin downhill. I wouldn't mind JP and Ste, but i simply can't be interested in the whole mess

There have been a ton of pregnancies lately. Everything about this potential Sinead/Ste/JP story is vomit-worthy. Why is Sinead still on this show? She's such a horrid character.

Blessing the transgender character is leaving, her story line was one of the few that the show was handling well. Sad to see her go.

With Dennis leaving there's no point to her staying. At least they get a happy ending.

With Dennis leaving there's no point to her staying. At least they get a happy ending. Agreed. It's funny though. Dennis and Ste are the remaining survivors of the early 20s to mid 20s group and Dennis gets to have his HEA and leave the village alive. At least Kirkwood acknowledged that with all the stuff that Nancy and Darren have gone through since Sienna arrived, it makes no sense for those two to still be together romantically on the show. So glad that the pairing is ending. Let's see if Nancy does survive for most of 2015.

I'd like to see Nancy and Darren eventually work their way back to one another, but yeah, their relationship has gotten so ridiculous lately. It'd be nice to see them apart and trying to navigate things as separated parents and date some other people for a while (maybe they'll return to the Nancy/Joe flirtation? Joe is boring as dirt, but maybe Nancy could liven him up a bit)
Dennis is one of my favorite characters, so I'm bummed that he's leaving, but glad he's going to get out of the village alive.

Anytime anyone gets out of Hollyoaks alive, it's a minor miracle.

If a reunion does happen, I hope that it takes at least 12 to 18 months for it to develop on screen. I know that Nancy isn't always liked as a character, due to her judgemental ways, but Sienna caused massive destruction in her life and Darren (during that time) was revealed to be a weaked willed man, who needed a woman to make him feel special. Darren has always been weak, but he chose to marry Nancy, who he knew was a ball breaker.

(Digiguide) it's pretty hilarious how JP's been widdled down to a character that finds himself in a continuous, monotonous series of affairs. I mean this would have been ill-advised pre-rape, but at this point it's straight up laughable... can this effing character GROW beyond such idiocy, already? Holy crap.

Has any soap (in the US or UK) ever created an HIV storyline centered on a gay character? Usually, it's always based on a straight character being diagnosed. The most "famous one" that I know of is the GH storyline from the early 90s, in which the beloved daughter of Port Charles' international spies (Anna and Robert), Robin is diagnosed with the illness after her first love dies from AIDS.

I Think all the major character have been straight Malachy (Hollyoaks), Mark (Eastenders) and Val (Emmeradale) and there have been others but I think all may have gay characters as part of the story. As far as this story line for Ste, I think it is a relevant issue to deal with as there have been an increase of infection rate among young gay men, but I think the fact that Ste is always a 'woe is me' character will lower the impact that the story would have have with a different character. Hope Hollyoaks does a better job with this issue base story.

Hope Hollyoaks does a better job with this issue base story.Agreed, especially on hoping that Hollyoaks realizes that they cannot attempt to do a "Ste's misdiagnosed and really doesn't have HIV" move. It would be interesting to see if Ste could get himself out of this self-destructive pattern he's been in and finally take control of his life. Regardless of his relationship status.

On soaps maybe, on prime time shows is always the gay character and in a lot of times it's not even a regular gay character. It's difficult than in american soaps will be a gay character basically due to the fact that gay characters were practically non existent during a lot of years, and even today are a rare specimen in an american show. I'm pretyy sure the HIV storyline will be as well written as the rape storyline and the domestic violence storyline. Sorry but if i want to suffer to no end i prefer to burn myself with a cigarette, i'm pretty sure it will be less painful an probably more creative. I'm done with Hollyoaks for a good while, enough is enough

Let me get this straight. Ste and JP get married on Christmas this year. Ste cheats on JP less than a month later. And contracts HIV. I hate how Kirkwood seems to talk with media about "issue-based" stories as if they're being done in isolation, ignoring the protagonist's history. As if he's doing a great service by telling the story. But in light of the never-ending problems with storytelling on Hollyoaks, I hold very little hope that he can do this justice, either. Perhaps my standards are still too high. I hold only a tiny glimmer of hope that Ste will actually grow out of this event. That he'll actually straighten up (so to speak) and take responsibility for his life (again). That kind of outcome might make it worthwhile. I'm not holding my breath.

I think he contracts HIV from the random Doug look a like that he slept with after Amy return.

I'm wondering if either of the new teens (Trevor's son and Tony's son) will be gay. Or have we reached our LGBT quota with Ste, John Paul, Esther and now Lockie and Kim? I still can't believe none of the Roscoe boys are. Wasn't it stastically proven that the more older brothers you have, the more likely you are to be gay? The twins have 4. I'd give anything for Parry Glasspool (Harry) and Alfie Sykes (Jason) to make out.

John Paul/Ste/Lockie Spoilers (digiguide)
23 Dec C4 :On the night of his joint stag do with John Paul, will Ste be able to resist temptation? [...] John Paul and Lockie go on the run from the law and end up taking an unexpected journey.
24 Dec C4 :It's Ste and John Paul's wedding day, but with both grooms missing it's still a long road to the altar. Tony is hosting Christmas lunch for his nearest and dearest, but will it be ruined by Sinead's explosive secret?*
26 Dec C4 :Sinead's life hangs in the balance, while Ste and John Paul's relationship is on shaky ground again.
*Included the Sinead spoiler as I'm assuming it is related to Ste being the baby's father.

So Amy's back in the village with the kids and has informed Ste that Terry, his abusive step father has "changed".
Now, I know that Amy's back and under this unbelievable situation (Amy would never allow her kids with Terry, when she was so resistant and right about Brendan and his "change") just for the purpose of creating more drama for Ste, but if this was a storyline for any other soap, there would be some other reason behind Amy behaving in this way.
Maybe Amy trying to show Ste how gullible he has been in the past, in his own willingness to put his needs, desires, faith and trust in believing that Brendan had "changed" over putting his kids safety first in his life? Why wouldn't Amy just have the kids around her own father (off screen)? He's still alive.
But on this soap, the Amy that warned Brendan twice about putting her kids at risk, knowing that as much as Brendan and Ste wanted to believe that he had "changed", he hadn't and the Amy from earlier this year chastising Ste about how he was purposely destroying his life, is fine with having her children around the man that beat Ste for most of his childhood?! She witnessed Ste being beaten by him.
I feel that this show, BK and KR so desperately want to get some Best Actor nominations during next year's award season, but they're going about it in a way that makes no sense.
Even Aaron on Emmerdale wasn't this damn destructive and Danny just had to toss in a couple of unshed tears to win his awards as Best Actor.
Ste is Chester's version of Job (if you're familiar with The Bible).
