Coronation Street star Georgia May Foote has discussed her impending exit from the show, adding that she will be filming her final scenes next February.

It was announced earlier this year that the actress will be leaving the soap, having played Katy Armstrong since 2010.

Speaking to Inside Soap, Foote said: "I have just found out that I am filming my final scenes in February.

"I'm not sure how I will be written out yet, but I have been told Katy won't be killed off. Mind you, the writers keep changing their mind, so who knows? I could end up being Rob's next victim.

"I think there is going to be a lot of family drama in the lead-up to my departure, so I am preparing myself for a busy few months."

Coronation Street's executive producer recently discussed Katy's exit with Digital Spy, adding that the decision to write her out of the show was storyline-led.

Coronation Street star Georgia May Foote has teased that her character Katy Armstrong could be heading for heartbreak as she embarks on a fling with Callum Logan.

Katy will start to fall for Callum (Sean Ward) after they clash next week when she spots him chatting to his young son Max.

Despite warnings from David and other street residents, Katy continues to be taken in by Callum's charms, unaware that he is using her for his own personal gain.

Speaking about whether Katy is heading for trouble, Foote said: "Yes, definitely. Especially as her family will learn of Callum's reputation and won't want her going near him. Her dad really doesn't agree with her seeing him.

"It's always going to end in tears because Callum's main motive isn't because he likes Katy and wants to be with her, but because she's a hook for him to bring him back to the Street to be near to Max and to wind David up.

"I think she knows deep down that he's not the type to settle down with."

Foote also revealed that Katy will continue to ignore warnings from her loved ones as she grows closer to Callum, admitting that her alter ego is drawn to his dark side.

She said: "Katy's attitude is very much careless - she just thinks, 'I don't care what you're all saying because I'm going to do it anyway'.

"Katy just doesn't rise to it and she tries to ignore it all. She tells herself that as long as she thinks he's okay, then that's all that matters.

"I think Katy likes a bad boy anyway so she's definitely drawn to him and his edgy ways. That's why she was attracted to Ryan! Deep down though I think she must know that Callum's only hanging around to get at David."
