For more than a decade, actor Charlie Behan has been a beloved member of the Hollyoaks family. However, recent reports have confirmed that he will soon be joining the long list of departures from the show, ahead of a big change coming this autumn.
Charlie has been portraying the character of Charlie Dean since 2011, and viewers have grown to love and root for him throughout the years. But sadly, it's time to say goodbye as he will be leaving the Channel 4 soap in the coming weeks.
During his time on the show, Charlie has been involved in some major storylines, including the County Lines drug dealing plot and taking the blame for Jordan Price's stabbing at The Hutch. He has also been at the center of powerful and important narratives, such as his struggle with mental health and his role in the Frankie and JJ sibling sexual abuse story.
Fans have been wondering about Charlie's future on the show, especially with his recent absences in the ongoing storyline. But now, it has been confirmed that he will be departing the show as part of the mass exodus of cast members.
According to a source, "Charlie will be leaving Hollyoaks on screen in the coming weeks. It's a sad time for his co-stars as he was a popular cast member on set and had a great relationship with the other younger cast and his on-screen family, the Osbornes." The agency has reached out to Hollyoaks for a comment on Charlie's departure.
Sadly, Charlie's exit is not the only one that has been announced. Just this week, it was also confirmed that Richard Blackwood, who plays Felix Westwood, will also be leaving the show. This news comes just weeks before a major moment for Hollyoaks, as the show will be jumping forward in time.
In order to facilitate this change, multiple cast members will be exiting the show. This has left fans heartbroken, but also curious to know which characters will be leaving and which ones will stay.

Other confirmed exits include Matthew James Bailey, who plays Ethan Williams, and Jon-Paul Bell, Ross Adams, and Glynis Barber as Beau Ramsey, Scott Drinkwell, and Norma Crow respectively.
The exit stories for these characters have divided fans, and there are still more upcoming departures, including that of Jamie Lomas, who plays Warren Fox. As part of a huge gangster narrative, his character will also be leaving soon.
So, as September approaches, fans can expect to see a very different Hollyoaks with the absence of these beloved characters.
