Hollyoaks\u2019 Mercedes McQueen and Tony Hutchinson are set to continue their surprise romance next week, but things take a turn when Tony hides a big secret.<\/p>\n

This week, Tony found out that Mercedes\u2019 teen son Bobby had been hiding at The Dog<\/a> after he escaped custody.<\/p>\n

He was furious, as Bobby previously killed his half-sister Verity, and was keen to go to the police. Mercedes managed to convince him otherwise, and Tony realised that he would have done the same thing to protect his own child. <\/p>\n

The pair shared a bottle of wine as they made amends and reminisced on their previous affair \u2013 but they soon ended up kissing<\/a>, in a huge twist.<\/p>\n

However, Mercedes is out of the room at this point, so Tony sees the message and must choose what to do with this new information.<\/p>\n
