Hollyoaks star Nikki Sanderson reveals her wedding would be the “polar opposite” to Maxine’s

She's been with her fella for five years

Maxine Minniver is preparing for the happiest day of her life next week on Hollyoaks.

But as she gets ready to marry Damon Kinsella, her alter ego, Nikki Sanderson, has revealed she would do things very differently if she were to get married.

Nikki has been dating boyfriend Greg Whitehurst since 2015, and she admitted Maxine’s wedding plans are the “polar opposite” to what she would do.

“It would be the absolute and complete opposite to whatever Maxine wanted,” Nikki said when asked about her dream wedding.

“Whatever she wants I probably don’t. Honestly I think it would be the polar opposite!”

As Max prepares to marry Damon, she’s aware Dr Levi knows she is faking her symptoms.

And then Sienna Blake also finds out the truth.

But Maxine then discovers Sienna is planning to kidnap ‘her’ twins, and the pair agree to keep each other’s secrets.

Even so, Max’s happiness is hanging in the balance as she heads down the aisle…

Could all her secrets come spilling out on the big day? And how would she feel if they did?

“She would be horrified,” Nikki admits. “I think that she would be massively upset for herself because at the moment, she is full of her own self-importance.

“She would be like, why is this happening to me?

“She’d mainly be upset because she’d recognise that all of these people sat at that wedding love and adore her.

“They’ve done everything for her and they love and support her.

“She would feel terrible about how she’s treated everybody and the fall out with that.”

And although Nikki thinks Maxine truly loves Damon, her character has no plans to give up the lie.

“I don’t think she has any long term plans with the lie,” she reveals. “She’s just going day by day.

“I think she wants to be able to live a normal life with Damon and Minnie and be happy and not have this hanging over her.

“But she has now started to really love the attention that it’s bringing her.

“I think that it would be difficult for her to stop.”

Hollyoaks is on Monday to Friday at 6.30pm on Channel 4 with an first look episode on E4 at 7pm.
