DEADLY RETURN Hollyoaks fan favourite making shock comeback after being jailed for murder
A HOLLYOAKS fan favourite is set to make a shock comeback after being jailed for murder.
The actress has revealed she’s taking a brief hiatus but will be back before the end of summer.
While the star doesn’t yet know if her character will be leaving behind the jail cell, she has signed a contract, sealing her return.
The Hollyoaks legend is none other than Anna Passey, who plays Sienna Blake, a former teacher locked up after her misdeeds finally caught up with her.
Speaking on her return, Anna said: “I’ve done 14 years on the bounce and Sienna is pretty hectic so I thought it was a nice time to take a little time off for myself.
“I’m on a little sabbatical at the moment. Sienna is in prison for a while but she will be back.”
“I’ve signed my contract for it,” continued Anna.
“I don’t know too many details of how she will be back. But she will be back by the end of the summer. I’m looking forward to coming back.
“Once I’ve had this break, I’ll be back to normal.”
Anna joined the Channel 4 soap back in September 2012 and quickly became a favourite, winning the Villain of the Year at the 2014 British Soap Opera Awards.
The 41-year-old has also appeared in films, A Landscape of Lies (2011) and The Smoke (2014).
Anna’s character Sienna had been tampering with her partner Cleo‘s medication after she was diagnosed with postpartum psychosis just months ago.
Cleo (Nadine Mulkerrin) later found out about Sienna’s scheme and that she’d also killed Clare despite trying to blame it on her.
Once Cleo confronted Sienna and she confessed to her crimes, the drama was palpable.
It was one thing after another as Cleo pieced together that Sienna had wacked off her husband Ethan.
But as she urged Sienna to go to the police, things took an ugly turn.
Sienna managed to convince her to go to the allotments and grim scenes ensued as Cleo fell, hitting her head.
Meanwhile, Cleo wasn’t the only one on Sienna’s case as Warren Fox (Jamie Lomas) uncovered the truth behind Clare’s shock death.
After fleeing to the village, Sienna was cuffed by cops in front of the locals and taken away.
How will Sienna’s return to the series play out? Could she really be free to roam the streets of Hollyoaks once again?
