Hollyoaks actor Kevin Sacre - better known as Jake Dean - has been diagnosed with Hand Foot and Mouth disease.
The infectious virus, most commonly found in children under 10, isn't serious but symptoms include a sore throat and spots in the mouth that progress into small mouth ulcers. After a few days, spots also start to appear elsewhere on the body.
A Hollyoaks insider confirmed: "Kevin has been diagnosed with the illness and was sent home from filming yesterday. He'll be off work for about a week while he recovers."
