Rayne Royce (Jemma Donovan) has revealed her true nature once again in Hollyoaks, blackmailing Peri Lomax (Ruby O’Donnell) into staying away from Romeo Nightingale (Owen Warner).
Peri, as viewers know, has take it upon herself to care for recovering addict Donna-Marie Quinn (Lucy-Jo Hudson), who has relapsed in the wake of daughter Juliet’s (Niamh Blackshaw) death.
Things, however, took a shock turn earlier this week when Donna-Marie, who had been locked in the gym by Leela (Kirsty Leigh Porter), stole Peri’s phone to make contact with a dealer, who later dropped her off some drugs.
Peri was appalled when she realised what had happened but the bigger shock came moments later, after Donna-Marie notified her that the dealer needed paying.
At first, Peri refused, but after an intimidating text message from the dealer in question – who has her number due to Donna-Marie’s call the previous day – she decided to do as she was told, paying the dealer off.
Little did she know, however, that Rayne had witnessed the secret meeting between her and the dealer. Not only that but the influencer recorded the meeting and subsequently used the video as leverage over Peri, blackmailing her to stay away from Romeo!
Peri had previously consulted Romeo on his mum’s health, with the two having a heart-to-heart as they reminisced about Juliet, but paranoid Rayne jumped to conclusions, believing Peri to be a threat to her relationship, hence the blackmail.

Peri, as viewers know, has long had her suspicions that Rayne isn’t the person she appears to be, so will she let the influencer away with this blackmail?
Or will she use the development to expose Rayne for who she really is?
