Hollyoaks reveals Jez wedding shocker as another dead body is confirmed
The grooms-to-be are set to tie the knot in what promises to be an explosive week for the Channel 4 soap, with Jez's deadly antics set to cause quite a stir.
The gardener, as viewers know, is a dastardly serial killer who has been committing murderous acts for decades.
Since his arrival in the village a year ago (two years ago in the show's universe), he's claimed the lives of Dilly Harcourt (Emma Johnsey-Smith), Abe Fielding (Tyler Conti) and social worker Ian.
He's also murdered Dennis Savage (Joe Tracini), who was last seen on screens in 2018.
Dodger Savage (Danny Mac) has been investigating Dennis' murder for months and next week tragedy strikes when the character's body is found.
The undercover policeman receives the update just seconds after a confrontation with Liberty (Jessamy Stoddart), who has been having an affair with Jez.

Dodger, having been given reason to suspect such a thing, urges Lib to come clean about the questionable romance when he gets a phone call to confirm Dennis' remains have been uncovered.
Reeling, Liberty shares the tragic update with Sienna (Anna Passey) and Martha (Sherrie Hewson).
John Paul, meanwhile, grows suspicious of Jez's commitment to him and tells his fiancé that he's not sure he loves him. Enraged, Jez smashes a mirror amid a violent outburst.
As the day of the wedding arrives, Jez gets set to tie up all of his loose ends. No matter the cost. John Paul, however, is still full of doubts, with his family offering him support.
Determined to win him back, Jez urges JP to give him once more shot. And as the wedding guests gather, the murderer is delighted to see John Paul at the altar.
The question is: with secrets galore, will the vows be exchanged?
That remains to be seen but what I can tell you is that, the fallout of the wedding results in emotions running high – and danger closes in fast.
Later, at the allotment, Libery visits Jez. But is their love affair at an end?
Tony meets with Mercedes ahead of The Dog re-opening, sharing his hopes of rebuilding his family as he and Diane move back into the pub. More Trending
Armed with newfound confidence, Tony asks Diane to give them another shot. With risks involved and the children to think about, Di reckons they should take things slow.
Later in the week, a vendetta leads to Tony making a life-changing detour. Jack, meanwhile, is delighted to be asked back behind the bar.

However, in a further blow, Steph has now admitted that she misses the friendships she once had with her fellow cast members. Speaking on the latest episode of the Secure The Insecure podcast, she said: "I did feel the quiet from the family that I once knew on the show. "No one's picking up the phone. No one's checking in. "Everyone's just getting on with their life. "When you're in that Hollyoaks bubble and they call it a family - I feel you're only family when you're in it." Steph - who didn't name any of co-stars in particular - added: "You pour your heart out to these people and then you go and it's like it never happened. "Where did that friendship go? There's only a couple of people I'm in contact with." Last month, Steph opened up about her heartbreaking reaction on the day bosses told her she would no longer be on Hollyoaks.

'They asked me to sit. They explained that they'd be reading a scripted statement. As I listened, I could barely process what was being said. I was just waiting for the words I longed to hear: 'And therefore, we'd like Cindy to stay.' 'But as the statement neared its close, before the final words were even spoken, I felt a tear roll down my cheek. I was shaking as I looked at the two of them. 5 Stephanie revealed her true reaction after being let go from Hollyoaks Credit: Instagram 5 The star was on Hollyoaks from the very first episode Credit: Channel 4 'Then it happened. 'And with that said, we will be losing Cindy from the show. I'm so sorry, Steph.' The world stopped for a second as I replayed those words in my head. Then… I lost my s***. ''What? No! You mean you're not taking me to the 30th?' I blurted out, referencing the upcoming anniversary of the show – a milestone that meant so much to the long-standing cast. ''I don't understand. No, I don't understand. I don't understand!' I was frantic. 'But I've been so loyal. Please, no. This is my life. I love my job – please, no!' 'Hysterically crying, I repeated myself, hoping one of them would see my distress and take it all back. Had they made a mistake? My world felt like it was imploding. Through my tears, I demanded to know, 'How am I on that list? Cindy is an original! I'm the longest-serving female character. I was the first person to give birth on the show.' 'I was clutching at anything, anything at all, to make them realise their mistake. How? Why was I the only original being cut? I couldn't understand. It felt so cold. I could see the distress I was causing them.' She fled the room and was found by her co-stars Jennifer Metcalfe and Kirsty Leigh Porter who supported her before she could go home to husband Tom. Stephanie also revealed how her agent had become determined to get soap bosses to reverse their decision - but in the end the actress herself decided she didn't want to stay. Since her Hollyoaks exit Steph has reinvented herself as a life coach.

Miley Cyrus won't tour new album because of her mental health and sobreity
To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Miley Cyrus has revealed why she won't be touring her latest album, Something Beautiful. The singer, 32, released her latest album on May 30, including the single End of the World, which has already earned 80million streams on Spotify. Despite the fantastic reception the new album received, the star has revealed that she has no intention to perform it on tour. Speaking with Good Morning America, Miley said that she doesn't feel that artists are supported while they are on tour. 'I do have the physical ability, and I have the opportunity to tour – I wish I had the desire, but I don't. I also don't think that there is actually an infrastructure that supports artists. She added that staying sober was another issue for her on tour: 'It's really hard to maintain sobriety when you're on the road, which is a really important, kind of pillar of stability in my life.' She added that on top of all of this, she also has to consider her mental health, as tour can come with crushing lows. 'None of this that I create would ever be possible without the way that I think about things. 'And I do think it's really hard to keep mental wellness [while touring]. You have so many thousands of people screaming at you, so [there's] dopamine, you're feeling a lot of love and then you totally crash at the end of the show. 'You start thinking that one person loving you is not enough; it needs to be 10,000, it needs to be 80,000.' In the interview, Miley mentioned Prince and added that she isn't the only artist to struggle with the intensity of touring. Famously, Michael Jackson hated touring, and stars like Shawn Mendes, Adele, and Zayn Malik have all been open about how their mental health has struggled with touring. The singer first went on tour in 2007 for the Best of Both Worlds Hannah Montana tour. She toured again in 2009 for the Wonder World Tour, and in 2011 in the Gypsy Heart Tour. She has also taken on two promotional tours, the 2015 Milky Milky Milk Tour in 2015, which consisted of just eight tour dates to support the album Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz (2015). In 2022, she also took on a mini 11-show tour, the Attention Tour to support of her seventh studio album, Plastic Hearts (2020). More Trending This isn't the first time that Miley has spoken honestly about how touring has affected her. Speaking to British Vogue in 2023, the star once again emphasised that she had 'no desire' to return to the stage, having last toured an album in 2014 with Bangerz. 'It's been a minute,' she said of her years-long break. 'After the last [headline arena] show I did [in 2014], I kind of looked at it as more of a question. And I can't. Not only 'can't', because can't is your capability, but my desire. 'Do I want to live my life for anyone else's pleasure or fulfilment other than my own?' she said. Got a story?
