Hollyoaks characters will be pushed to breaking point when baby Rose Lomax goes missing in an upcoming storyline.

Tegan Lomax will be left devastated when she learns that her young daughter has been snatched, sparking a mystery which casts a shadow of suspicion over several local residents.


Over the next few weeks, viewers will see Tegan try to get her life back to normal following a turbulent 12 months, but the presence of Diane O'Connor in the village won't make things easy for her.

Diane is the biological mother of Rose as her and Tegan's babies were switched at birth. Despite promising to carry on as normal following the shocking discovery, feisty Diane will soon continue to cause problems for Tegan.

Scenes airing in late June will see Tegan threaten to leave the village with Rose forever following another bitter argument with Diane over the children.

Shortly afterwards, Tegan is stunned to find that Rose has gone missing, leaving desperate Diane as one of the main suspects for snatching her.

Once the police are called, a press conference is set up for Tegan to appeal for information, sending shockwaves through the village as the residents realise that the culprit may be among them.

A Hollyoaks source said: "Rose's disappearance will spark a huge week for the show, which will see many of the main families at centre stage. Diane is one possible suspect behind Rose's disappearance as she would naturally be against Tegan's decision to flee with the youngster, but the police investigation will also implicate Tegan's own family as every possibility needs to be considered. Even the Loveday family will find themselves under suspicion as the missing child case leads to their mysterious secret being exposed, but exactly what have they been hiding?"
