Though Jonah said that they&#8217;d make a great couple.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"31\" class=\"css-1ncddsh emevuu60\">Later on, the two decided to organise a BBQ at the Osborne house in order to prove to Beth that she has no reason to be against them.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"35\" class=\"css-1ncddsh emevuu60\">As everyone else went outside, the phone rang&#8230; asking for Beth. We didn&#8217;t hear what the other person said, but whatever it was left Beth stunned. When Darren and everyone asked who was on the line, she tried playing it off as an angry customer who had somehow looked up the Osborne&#8217;s phone number, and left.<\/p>\n<p><img draggable=\"true\" alt=\"hollyoaks, close up of beth keane with a serious express looking at jonah, who is seen from behind and out of focus on the right side of the frame\" title=\"Hollyoaks, Beth and Jonah Keane\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"2215\" height=\"1246\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" style=\"color:transparent;width:100%;height:auto;\"   src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/6deb2b3b-5f08-48e8-8ab1-a5431ede05e4.jpg\" class=\"css-0 e1g79fud0\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Lime Pictures<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"40\" class=\"css-1ncddsh emevuu60\">Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digitalspy.com\/soaps\/hollyoaks\/a71792734\/hollyoaks-emma-rigby-road-rage-tracie-andrews\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-vars-ga-outbound-link=\"https:\/\/www.digitalspy.com\/soaps\/hollyoaks\/a71792734\/hollyoaks-emma-rigby-road-rage-tracie-andrews\/\" data-vars-ga-ux-element=\"Hyperlink\" data-vars-ga-call-to-action=\"Hollyoaks star looks unrecognisable as she reveals new gripping role\" data-node-id=\"40.0.2\" class=\"body-link css-1gyyefe emevuu60\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Hollyoaks star looks unrecognisable as she reveals new gripping role<\/a> <\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"44\" class=\"css-1ncddsh emevuu60\">Frankie went to the Keane household and spoke to Jonah, sharing her theory that Beth&#8217;s ex is trying to get in touch in with her.
