Emmerdale 2017

[SomersetSunShin]

Jonathan Wrather, John McArdle, Louise Marwood and Thomas Atkinson have become the latest to leave Emmerdale.

A soap source told The Sun: “The cast of Emmerdale are starting to feel concerned for the show’s future as one by one all of the regulars are leaving.

Only obvious that these characters would have to go ... the White family and Ronnie have no place to stay once Lachlan kills Lawrence and goes back to jail, it would be unreasonable for Chrissie and Rebecca and Ronnie to stay and Pearce will also be in jail for raping Rhona ... doubt Cain will be killed off though and I hope he will not. Would like him and Faith and Chas to get close

Jonathan Wrather{Pierce Harris} let slip by accident during a Good Morning Britain Interview back on 20th October 2016 that he was being written out of the show when his storyline finished in 2017.

Louise Marwood{Chrissie White} wrote on twitter back on August 16th 2016 that she had signed a 1 year Emmerdale Contract Extension{unless she has signed a new one in the mean time} which would mean her current Emmerdale contract runs out at midnight on 16th August 2017.

Thomas Atkinson{Lachlan White} had originally sparked fears he had left the Emmerdale show quietly after he had got sent down for shooting his on screen Grandad Lawrence White{John Bowe} back earlier last year with comments he wrote on twitter which he later deleted.

John McArdle {Ronnie Hale}'s Emmerdale Departure was originally kept quiet until Dan Wootton of the Sun Newspaper confirmed his departure from the show then John McArdle said he was leaving the show on a cliff hanger.

Adam Thomas{Adam Barton} denied he was leaving the Emmerdale show for months that was up until Emmerdale released a statement on their twitter and facebook pages confirming he would be exiting the show in January 2018

Carly Hope{Gemma Atkinson} and her on screen boyfriend Matt{Jack Hickley} were wrote out of the show back in June 2017 as Gemma is going back to Hollyoaks.

John Bowe{ Lawrence White} and Gillian Kearney{Emma Barton} both confirmed they were being killed off and leaving Emmerdale sometime this year during interviews at the Soap Awards 2017.
