Hollyoaks films mystery wedding as Prince McQueen star shares first look
Who's tying the knot next?
Hollyoaks‘ cast and crew are busy filming a wedding episode – and star Malique Thompson-Dwyer has provided a tantalising first look.
Malique, who plays charmer Prince McQueen on the Channel 4 soap, set tongues wagging as he posted a picture from the village on his Instagram page.

With Malique standing behind the iconic Hollyoaks village sign, which blocked most of the view, there was just a tiny glimpse of a white wedding dress and some grey trousers.
Who are the mystery bride and groom? It seems that show bosses want to keep us guessing for now…
If Prince is involved, though, the most likely explanation is surely that Leah Barnes and Imran Maalik are already tying the knot.
The young couple got engaged last week and, with Imran’s tech fortune to fall back on, they’re likely to waste little time in making their dream ceremony a reality.
The pair are also becoming closely involved with the other young characters in the show, including Prince and Vicky Grant.

The other two couples who are currently engaged are Jack Osborne and Pearl Anderson, and Donny Clark and Misbah Maalik. However, Hollyoaks‘ executive producer Hannah Cheers recently confirmed that Jack and Pearl won’t get to exchange their vows anytime soon.
“There might be another couple of weddings that end up elbowing them out of the schedule!” Cheers told Inside Soap. “We absolutely love Jack and Pearl and they’re so important to the fabric of the show. But there’s so much that has to happen fast so we can get to certain points, and it’s really important to still have that grain of believability.
“The reality is that Jack and Pearl would be enjoying a long engagement, and I think that’s a demonstration of their commitment to each other.”

Speaking about the current state of play between Donny and Misbah, she added: “I will say that Donny and Misbah’s lives are set to get more complicated by the arrival of Imran and Leah.
“There are a lot of interesting characters in the Maalik-Clark household now with Gemma, Vicky, Imran and Prince. It’s a bit of a tangled web and Donny and Misbah will find themselves in the thick of that.”
