Hollyoaks viewers were left stunned as it was revealed Grace Black has a secret child - and fans are convinced they know exactly who it is
Hollyoaks fans were left stunned by a dramatic revelation involving Grace Black and her secret offspring in recent scenes.
In an intense exchange with her sister Clare Devine, it came to light that Grace had another child, described as her “firstborn”.
Clare ominously warned Grace that she would “never know the truth” should she choose to report their questionable activities to the authorities.
The following contains spoilers from Tuesday’s episode, which is available for streaming on Channel 4 and will air on E4 at 7th this evening.
As the plot unfolded, it was disclosed that both sisters were expecting children at the same time many years earlier, during their youth.

Their nefarious father, Fraser Black, disapproved of their decisions to become mothers and took drastic measures to prevent it. In a shocking turn of events, it seems Fraser was responsible for Clare’s miscarriage.
Grace recounted how Clare had a fall down the stairs, hinting that there was more to the story than met the eye. When Grace went into labour, Clare assisted in the delivery, but the newborn was not breathing, reports the Mirror.
In a desperate bid for help, Clare left the baby with their father, who heard the infant cry. However, instead of reuniting the baby with Grace, Fraser handed the child over to an unknown individual who then disappeared.

Grace confessed that she had spent her life trying to forget the pain of losing her child, but now she’s on a quest for answers, determined to uncover the whereabouts of her long-lost child.
The exact timing of the events and the birth of the baby remain undisclosed, leaving fans to speculate on the identity of the child, which could be a familiar character. A hint in the episode has viewers convinced they’ve pieced together who it might be.
As Clare and Grace reminisced about old times, Clare professed ignorance about the whereabouts of the child but promised to assist her sister.
However, it soon became evident that Clare was concealing more than she admitted, with her words and actions suggesting she knows the identity of the child.
Could Rex be Grace’s secret child?
Clare assured Grace she would do all in her power to help find her child, and after Grace exited the room, Clare was overheard saying: “You never know, they could be just around the corner.”
At that precise moment, the camera shifted focus to Robbie Roscoe, who was being confined in an allotment shed by serial killer Jez Blake, implying a deliberate connection.
Could this be a subtle confirmation that Robbie is indeed Grace’s long-lost son?
The theory requires some creative explanation, considering Robbie’s established backstory as Sandy Roscoe’s twin, born well after Grace’s pregnancy.
Clare possesses a birth certificate for the child, which omits the father’s name and has the date of birth and child’s name redacted. Now, other fans are speculating whether Rex, the brother of Clare and Grace, might actually be Grace’s secret son.
Is Robbie Roscoe the secret son of Grace?
Fans flocked to social media with their theories. One fan declared: “Robbie is Grace’s son,” while another appeared taken aback, commenting: “I would of never guessed Robbie as her son. Love it.”
A different viewer speculated: “Maybe Fraser gave Robbie to Sandy and she brought them up as twins.”
The speculation around Rex was just as rampant, with one fan stating: “I reckon Rex is her son,” which was met with agreement from another who added: “More than likely Rex.”
A third chimed in confidently: “Rex is her son not her brother.”
