Hollyoaks spoilers follow for Wednesday’s (March 12) episode that is now available to view on Channel 4 streaming. The episode in question will air on E4 on at 7pm.
Leela Dexter (Kirsty-Leigh Porter) was left devastated to discover that a video of her rape ordeal – recorded by rapist Abe Fielding (Tyler Conti) – was being circulated around the village.
The discovery came just moments after she patched things up with Joel Dexter (Rory Douglas-Speed) after fearing that he was starting to fall for ex Cleo McQueen (Nadine Mulkerrin) once again.
Leela confided these fears in new therapist Tommy Odenkirk (Brandon Fellows), who she’s been seeing in the wake of her ordeal.
Tommy, however, misread the signals earlier this week and went in for a kiss.
Wednesday’s (March 11) edition of the Channel 4 soap saw him apologise for his actions but Leela wasn’t interested, berating him for betraying her trust.
Leela subsequently told Joel about her decision to see a therapist, with her partner proud that she sought help when she needed it.
But things took an unexpected and devastating turn later in the evening, with Leela receiving word that the video Abe captured of her ordeal had been sent to everyone in the village.
The question is: just who is responsible?
Leela, as viewers know, was raped by Abe during the ‘missing’ year. The ordeal came to light last year after she confided in Mercedes (Jennifer Metcalfe).
Abe subsequently revealed that he raped Leela during a livestream online, with Joel horrified to learn what his brother had done to Leela.
Hollyoaks streams Mondays to Wednesdays from 7am on Channel 4’s streaming platform, or catch episodes on TV at 7pm on E4.
