Tabby returns as the Nightingales lay Nathan to rest in Hollyoaks

Tabitha Maxwell-Brown returns for a family funeral as Nathan Nightingale is laid to rest. Dallas actress Linda Gray reprises her role as Tabby.

As the Nightingales gather to lay Nathan to rest, a storm is secretly brewing. Grieving Marnie has no idea that her son toppled from a window during a fight with his dad Mac, who he'd caught in a passionate embrace with his fiancée Lisa Loveday. But everything is revealed as emotions boil over at the funeral?

As Tabby flies in from America for the service, she finds herself having to take control as the Nightingales fall apart. Later, taking Alfie out, Tabby broaches the subject of Jade and offers her advice on coping with the death of a loved one. But what's her solution to the grief that's been "haunting" him?
