Coronation Street star Adam Hussain is leaving the soap after five years.

The actor confirmed the big news on Instagram on Friday (April 11) following reports that he'd quit his role as Aadi Alahan.

Adam told fans: "I guess the secret's out now! As some of you may have heard, I will be leaving Coronation Street for new pastures.

"Over the five years I've spent there, I have learned so much about the world and the industry and now feel I am ready to spread my wings a little."

He added: "I have made friends that will last a lifetime and will surely miss such a special family!

"This isn't a farewell for Aadi, however, more like a see you later! I'm excited to see what the future brings!

"Thank you @coronationstreet @itv for giving me such a privilege of portraying this character for you. Until next time!"

Digital Spy understands that Adam told Corrie bosses that he'd be leaving to pursue other projects.

The young actor will remain on screen in the show until the end of summer.

Adam joined Coronation Street in 2020 after Zennon Ditchett, who'd previously played Aadi, left the show to focus on his studies.

Speaking to Digital Spy in 2021, Adam reflected on the transition by telling us: "It's been an experience! I've learned a lot. I've been able to grow as an actor and as a person as well.

"I've enjoyed being able to enter this new world of stable work with so many great actors and great people, who are like a family now. It's been transformational for me.

"At first, viewers were a bit shocked and surprised that Aadi had been recast. There were one or two negative comments online.

"But that's what you expect when you go looking for that sort of stuff, especially when you're replacing someone.

"I found it a little bit nervous and awkward coming in after replacing someone who had been on the show for so long. But after a while, the audience grew to me and I grew more into it as well."

Coronation Street has confirmed a new storyline for Aadi Alahan ahead of his upcoming exit.

Back in April, Adam Hussain announced his decision to leave the soap after playing Aadi for five years.

Aadi has been holding the fort at his dad's corner shop while Dev looks after his injured auntie in India. Meanwhile, Dev's fianc?e Bernie Winter has been keeping an eye on his kids during his absence.

In upcoming scenes, Bernie is concerned when she overhears a conversation between Aadi, Amy Barlow and Summer Spellman. She worries Aadi is acting like he's middle-aged before his time.

When Bernie tells Aadi to close up the shop early and go enjoy himself, he and his friends decide to throw a party. Is this the perfect opportunity for Aadi to let his hair down, or will it end in tears?

"Aadi hasn't had much excitement in his life recently - he's been holding the fort at the shop while Dev's been away from Weatherfield," our Corrie source says.

"He takes on board Bernie's words of advice, realising that it's time for some fun. But with Aadi's exit from the show getting closer, could there be a greater significance to come from this party?"

Coronation Street will air these scenes air on Friday 20 June.
