Hollyoaks fans are still trying to guess the identity of Leah Barnes’ baby daddy after a time jump twist on the Channel 4 soap, with spoilers revealing the truth will come out soon

Hollyoaks fans are convinced a jaw-dropping twist will see a village favourite identified as the father of Leah Barnes’ baby.

Some viewers are convinced Charlie Dean and Dillon Ray will both be ruled out as the baby daddy after a bombshell aired this week. After the Channel 4 soap jumped a year into the future, it was confirmed Leah was pregnant.

In the first time jump episode she went into labour, while it was hinted Charlie was the dad. But amid Dillon’s romance with Leah’s brother Lucas Hay, some fans believed a comment about his bond with Leah revealed he could be the father in a devastating twist.

Now, two other characters are tipped to be the dad with some fans focusing on one fan favourite in particular. Ahead of a reported exit for the character amid a reunion with a former flame, fans think a spoiler teasing a taken man would be worried about his secret coming to light may give away the dad’s identity.

Ethan Williams is now tipped to be revealed as Leah’s baby daddy in a major twist, just as he looks set to have his happy ever after with soulmate Sienna Blake. A spoiler teased that next week we would finally find out who the dad is.

As a result, the man in question will be left worried as his lies will unravel. The person does not want their partner to find out they are the father, with them concerned for their future.

So now fans know it’s a taken man, they are convinced that this could be what leads to Ethan’s reported exit from the show, with him being revealed as the father. Taking to social media, one fan posted: “It will be Ethan.”

Another said: “Ethan definitely,” as a third wrote: “Ethan all the way!” The comments kept on coming too, while others questioned if Freddie Roscoe might be the dad in another theory – as others said this would probably not happen given his ongoing drama with partner Grace Black.

Hollyoaks is available to stream on Channel 4’s streaming service now, while it also airs Mondays to Fridays on E4 at 7PM.
