Gibson Joins Prestigious List of Award-Winning 'Corrie' Stars
Millie Gibson, who has played Kelly Neelan on the popular ITV soap opera "Coronation Street" for the past three years, has announced her departure from the show.
Gibson joined the cast in June 2019 and quickly became a fan favorite with her portrayal of the troubled teenager. Her character, Kelly, has faced a series of challenges, including the murder of her father, Rick Neelan.
In a statement, Gibson said, "I have decided to leave 'Coronation Street' after three years. It has been an amazing journey, and I have loved playing Kelly. I am grateful to the writers and producers for giving me such a wonderful opportunity."
Gibson's departure marks the latest in a series of high-profile exits from "Coronation Street." In recent years, the show has also bid farewell to stars such as Alexandra Mardell (Emma Brooker) and Lucy Fallon (Bethany Platt).
Despite her departure from "Coronation Street," Gibson has already achieved success in her acting career. In 2021, she won the Best Young Performer award at the Inside Soap Awards for her portrayal of Kelly.
Gibson's future plans remain unknown, but she is expected to continue her successful acting career. Her departure from "Coronation Street" will undoubtedly leave a void in the show, but fans can look forward to her future projects.
