Stacey Solomon's two oldest children have landed a role in Hollyoaks. Fans of the Channel 4 soap were sent into meltdown as behind-the-scenes pictures of Zachary and Leighton on set were posted on the show's official Instagram page on Tuesday (January 21).
Alongside three snaps of the boys filming inside and outside Price Slice, a video clip was shared showing Zachary and Leighton appearing in a scene alongside soap legends Jennifer Metcalfe, Charlie Wernham, Charlie Clapman and Dawn Hope. Parcel Patrons worker Zachary can be seen barging into Mercedes, played by Jennifer, while bringing a delivery into the shop, while Leighton, who appears to be playing a paper boy, arrives late.
Pearl Anderson, played by Dawn, tells the youngster: "Oh Leighton, what time do you call this to be collecting papers? I'll be having a word with your mother. Go on.". It remains to be seen whether or not if the roles are just a one-off or if the duo are due to film more scenes but the social media post has sent fans into meltdown.
Taking to the comment section, one fan penned: "Aww Stacey’s kids so lovely to see them on my favourite show." Another added: "Welcome to Hollyokas family." A third person said: "Omg it’s @staceysolomon pickles." Someone else wrote: "I wasn’t expecting Stacey Solomon’s kids on here.".
