It's been confirmed that Shelley King, who plays the role of Yasmeen Nazir, will soon be leaving Coronation Street. After being a part of the show for over a decade, she has decided to explore other opportunities and take her career in a different direction. A source from the show revealed that Shelley had a conversation with the producers last year and expressed her desire to move on after being involved in many major storylines over the past ten years.
The show insider also mentioned that Shelley is a talented actress, both on stage and on television, and the team understands her decision to leave the show after playing the same role for a decade. Her final scenes were filmed in December, and there are no plans to kill off her character, Yasmeen. This opens up the possibility of her reuniting with her former partner, Stu Carpenter, during her departure storyline. Stu had left the show last year, bidding farewell to Weatherfield and moving to Germany to be with his granddaughter and her father.
Yasmeen has been through a lot during her time on the cobbles, and a fresh start abroad could be just what she needs. After all, we have seen characters like Gail, who have left the show for a new life in France after decades of drama. But Yasmeen is not the only one leaving the show. Sue Devaney, who plays the role of Debbie Webster, will also be saying goodbye to the show as part of a storyline focusing on dementia. It's a powerful storyline, and fans are already feeling emotional about Sue's departure.
Another long-time cast member, Sue Cleaver, who plays Eileen Grimshaw, will also be leaving the show after being a central part of it for twenty-five years. She shared that she is ready to embrace change and look for new adventures as she turns sixty. Colson Smith, who has been a part of the show for fourteen years, will also be saying goodbye to his character, police officer Craig Tinker. He expressed his love for the show and the people he has worked with, and is excited to see what the future holds for him.
Charlotte Jordan, who has been playing the role of Daisy Midgeley for the past four years, will also be leaving the show as part of a secret explosive storyline. She shared that it has been a privilege to be a part of such a wonderful institution and that she has learnt a lot from her colleagues. And of course, Shelley King, who has been a part of the show for ten years, will also be departing. She has already filmed her final scenes in December, and her character will not be killed off.
It seems like changes are happening in Emmerdale as well, with several cast members leaving the show, including Susan Cookson, Lesley Dunlop, Paula Lane, and Roxy Shahidi. It's always difficult to say goodbye to beloved characters, but it also opens up new opportunities for the actors to explore their talents in different roles. We wish all the departing cast members the best of luck and can't wait to see what they do next.
