Stephen’s secrets start to unravel

It’s about time! Stephen’s end is nearly here (we hope) as his secrets catch up with him and he starts to crack.

We’ve already seen the evidence mounting up as Rufus’s wife has found his tie pin. And soon enough the discovery of a body in the canal must spell the end for Stephen.

“We are going to see him start taking risks as he gets more desperate, his life is starting to unravel and it is going to be interesting to see how he deals with the pressure”, Todd Boyce recently teased to Metro.co.uk.

“He is bound to start making mistakes and that could be his undoing. The walls are closing in on him.”

Still struggling with the aftermath of the acid attack, Ryan is also trying to find a way to make some money.

As the pressure mounts and his addiction to steroids takes hold, he soon finds himself signing up for an OnlyFans-type site to make some quick cash.

A source told The Sun: “Ryan has had a tough year and he is soon going to be tempted into taking the easy money that comes with things like OnlyFans.

“But he will soon discover that not everything is as easy as it first appears.

“It’s a major storyline for Ryan and one that bosses know he is going to smash.”
