The emotional storyline left fans setting up two petitions to convince the showrunners to give them a happy ending.
The Change.org petition reads: “This is a petition to try and give Brody and Sienna their happy ending.
“I know it’s a bit extreme, but me and so many otherHollyoaksfans have had enough of them splitting up perfect ships!
“So I thought I’d do something about it, and finally let the fans have a say and our voices heard. We always get ignored, and we’ve had enough.
“So if you’re a Hollyoaks fan or a soap fan please support!
“Their soulmates and all the fans love them, we just want one couple to survive, without being split up, or cheating on the other.
“They’re a fan favourite couple and so many people love them! We have to at least save one couple. These two deserve it!”
Hollyoaks is expected to air an hour-long Christmas special this year.
