Hollyoaks Rayne killer sealed as character pushed over edge before death

The killer of Rayne Royce may have just been revealed after one Hollyoaks star dropped a major hint.

During Monday's hour-long episode of the Channel 4 soap, influencer Rayne (Jemma Donovan) was hosting a luxury villa party to impress producers of a reality series.

As the party got underway, Rayne was finally exposed for her lies.

However, it ended in a dramatic twist when the character was found lifeless in the pool at the end of the night.

There are several characters tipped to be the killer, and actress Annabelle Davis revealed there is every chance it could be Lacey Lloyd as she was "pushed over the edge" before Rayne's death.

Speaking exclusively to Daily Star at the Inside Soap Awards, the 26-year-old said: "It's not been an easy ride for their relationship. Even before we saw them in Hollyoaks, who knows what's happened. It's been a very turbulent relationship and in the past couple of months, Rayne's behaviour has been horrendous and that is enough to push Lacey over the edge. It's enough to push anyone over the edge."

In the aftermath of Rayne's death, Lacey begins acting suspicious and later makes an excuse to take a mysterious phone call. Noticing her partner's strange behaviour, Nadira (Ashling O'Shea) confronts Lacey and demands to know what's going on.

But while there are a number of names on the suspect list, fans have shared their own theories on Reddit, with several believing the killer was Rayne herself. One person shared: "Them glasses with the camera built in were put on the statue by the pool. Rayne died by the pool.

"I'm gonna say Rayne killed herself. Without followers & socials. She had nothing, so she died so her name will live on, cos that's all she cared about. It makes the most sense." Another agreed: "Yes very very obvious it’s going to be a drawn out suicidal reveal. I’m more interested in the answers to Dazzlers quiz questions if I’m being honest."

A third chipped in: "I think you are 100% right with the sunglasses revealing what happened in the end. I also think that there is a good chance she killed herself. It's what would make the most sense. She couldn't imagine living without having followers and people admiring her.

"She likely decided she was going to do it while she was sitting alone by the pool, crying. When she talked to everyone and gloated about being "evil", that was her grand finale." Echoing this, another viewer wrote: "I also thought it might have been herself. Her whole world crashed, and framing someone in the process might be her last act of revenge."
