Charlie Condou has revealed that he is leaving Coronation Street after three years on the popular soap.
The actor is set to finish up early next summer with an exciting storyline involving a love triangle between his character Marcus Dent, Maria Connor (Samie Ghadie) and Todd Grimshaw (Bruno Langley).
Speaking about his exit Charlie said: “I’ve had fantastic time at
Corrie but feel it’s time for me to move on. I was only meant to return for three months and ended up staying for three years!”
He added: “The producers have been really supportive and are leaving the door open for Marcus which is great, and my exit will certainly be explosive.”
Charlie has become a favourite on the show.
