Hollyoaks will begin Ste Hays HIV storyline as new pictures show him attending the clinic where his life will be changed forever. As previously reported, the Channel 4 soap will be exploring another issue-based storyline as Ste is diagnosed as HIV positive. The long-running story will begin next week when Ste gets a call from Connor, a stranger he previously had a one-night stand with. When Ste eventually returns home, he is forced to tell John Paul that he might have HIV, after Connor informed him that he had recently been diagnosed with the disease. With Ste in denial, it is left to John Paul to take action and he immediately makes an appointment for them to get tested. Although John Paul initially goes to the clinic alone as Ste attends Peris concert instead, John Paul is relieved when Ste eventually turns up. The couple make awkward small talk as they wait for their appointment but as emotions run high, John Paul soon snaps, saying that after everything he has been through, he may now have HIV because of Ste. When John Paul and Ste are called in to see separate nurses, John Paul is relieved when he gets a negative result. However, it is a very different story for Ste, who is floored when his test comes back reactive. As the truth about his diagnosis suddenly hits Ste, he breaks down at The Hutch in front of Sinead who is full of concern. Later, John Paul promises to be there for him, but when he flinches as he goes to kiss Ste, it is clear that the couple are facing a very uncertain future. Heartbroken by his husband’s reaction to his diagnosis Ste decides to spend the night at the Lomax’s as it seems his marriage could be on the rocks already.
