The official Coronation Street website at itv.com/corrie states that the actress will depart the cobbles later this year, after producer Stuart Blackburn decided not to renew her contract.
Georgia says: “I have had an amazing four years on Coronation Street. I have had some fantastic storylines and worked with some wonderful actors. I am very excited about what the future holds. While I will be sorry to say goodbye to Weatherfield, I am looking forward to the challenge of new roles.”
“Katy will not be killed off and the door will be left open for a possible return,” Stuart Blackburn said, adding “We wish Georgia every success with her future career.”
