Ready, steady, wed me

Ivy rips Liam right out of Steffy’s claws with a quickie marriage ceremony.

Ivy needs to get married to stay in the country. Will Liam say yes? Weekdays SABC3 (*193) 18:00

Ivy Forrester (Ashleigh Brewer) is starting to realise that she’s caught her boyfriend Liam (Scott Clifton) on the rebound between wives. She’s tried to be gracious about Liam’s close relationship with his ex-wife Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood). But on Wednesday 22 June, she warns Steffy, “I don’t have a problem with you and Liam working together. What I do have a problem with is you making a play for my boyfriend at any opportunity you get.” Now Fate is about to step in with an offer that Ivy can’t refuse: marry Liam or get deported back to Australia.

RIGHT BACK TO KOALA LAND

An immigration officer warns Ivy on Wednesday 29 June that she’s working in the US illegally. She’s meant to have dual US-Australian citizenship thanks to her US- citizen dad John Forrester (Fred Willard). But silly dilly Dad seems to have messed up the paperwork. The timing couldn’t be worse. At the same moment, Wyatt’s (Darin Brooks) dropping in on his brother Liam to reveal that he’s just smooched Steffy and when Liam’s tantrum clears, he realises that he’s far from over his ex. On Friday 1 July, Ivy overhears Liam admit that he’s going to have to be honest with Ivy about his feelings for Steffy, so Ivy knows that Steffy will latch onto Liam’s lips like a leech if she goes back to Australia even for a day.

QUINN FOR THE WIN

Steffy’s got her eye on her ex. But when crazy Quinn Fuller (Rena Sofer) finds out that her son Wyatt wants Steffy for himself, she suggests an easy way out for Ivy on Monday 4 July: a Green Card marriage. And while Ivy goes running to Liam to propose on Tuesday 5 July, Quinn grabs Carter the lawyer (Lawrence Saint-Victor), slings a wedding dress to his arms and hustles him off to Liam’s place to make it happen… all behind Steffy’s back.
