Reneé Rapp, the 23-year-old American actress who plays wealthy lesbian student Leighton in the series, The Sex Lives of College Girls from Mindy Kaling and Justin Noble, has confirmed that she will be departing the show midway through season 3.
In a statement shared on her social media, Reneé expressed her gratitude for the role, saying: “College girls moved me out to LA and introduced me to some of my favorite people. 2 and a half years later – it’s given me ya’ll and this community. Thank u Mindy, Justin, and everyone at Max for believing in me. A lot of queer work gets belittled – but playing Leighton has changed my life. I love who I am 10x more than I did before knowing her. I hope she gave ya’ll a little bit of that too. She’s such a tiny part of representation but even the tiny parts count. I wouldn’t be half the person I am without her and ya’ll. I love that bitch more than you know.”
Reneé will appear in a handful of episodes in the upcoming season 3, but will not serve as a main role beyond that. Her departure has left fans of the show devastated.
But despite her exit from the show, fans are excited to see what Reneé has in store for them. She recently revealed that she is going on tour, with her first gig taking place in Houston, Texas on September 15. The Snow Hard Feelings tour will also see the star head to Europe in February 2024 with concerts in the likes of Germany, Ireland, and the UK.
Show creator, Mindy, voiced her love for Reneé on social media following the announcement and wrote on her Instagram Story: “We love @reneerapp so much and of course will be so sad to say goodbye Leighton Murray. But we can’t wait to see our friend on tour.”
The Sex Lives of College Girls airs on Max in the US. Fans of the show can stay tuned to see what other surprises the show has in store for them.
