Stacey Solomon’s nepo baby sons bag roles in Hollyoaks – following in footsteps of soap star Joe Swash

Their stepdad Joe Swash made his return to EastEnders last month after 13 years away from Albert Square.

And now Stacey Solomon’s nepo baby sons are following in his footsteps and have bagged roles of their own in Hollyoaks.

Fans were shocked to see that Stacey’s eldest sons Zachary, 16, who she shares with ex Dean Cox, and Leighton, 12, whose dad is her ex fiance Aaron Barham, made their acting debut on the Channel 4 soap.

The official Instagram account for the show announced the exciting news on Tuesday by posting a snap of the youngsters alongside fellow castmates Charlie Clapham and Charlie Wernham.

A video showed a snippet of the scene they starred in, with Zachary playing a Parcel Patrons worker who was delviering a package and bumped into Mercedes (Jennifer Metcalfe).

And Leighton took on the role of a paperboy, who got told off by Price Slice employee Pearl Anderson (Dawn Hope) after he was late to delivering his papers.

She quipped: ‘Oh Leighton, what time do you call this to be collecting papers? I’ll be having a word with your mother. Go on.’ 

The duo seemed to keep their own names for the brief appearance and it’s yet to be revealed whether it’s a one-off or they will be playing returning roles.

Their actor-turned-presenter step-dad Joe Swash, 42, played the role of Mickey Miller on EastEnders from 2003 until 2008.

He made a one-off appearance in December but has admitted that a full-time comeback would depend on his family.

Joe is married to Loose Women star Stacey and has Rex, five, Rose, three, and Belle, 23 months, with her.

He told The Mirror: ‘If they wanted me to go back in, that would be something I would think about.

‘I’ve got a big family so it would have to suit me and the family ultimately. Soaps are quite full on and I have quite a young family.’
