A POPULAR Call The Midwife actress has confirmed that she has officially QUIT the show after four years.
Actress Megan Cusack has walked out on her role as Nancy Corrigan on the show but her final scenes are yet to play out.
The star confirmed her exit to RadioTimes amid fan concern after her character has gone missing in recent episodes.
It led many to speculate that Megan had already quit but the actress has confirmed that her final exit storyline is yet to be seen on-screen.
It is likely that Nancy will depart Poplar for good in the show’s impending fourteenth series finale.
Nancy has currently been romancing the character of Roger after his debut in the show’s Christmas special.
It remains to be seen if the pair will get their happily ever after.
Speaking to the RadioTimes about her time on the show and why she made the decision to quit for good, Megan said: “Sometimes, you’ve got to step out of your comfort zone to grow.
“I’ve learnt so much, but I’m at the start of my career and I need to take a leap of faith.”
She continued: “It’s bittersweet, really. I’ve made lifelong friendships there and I get to take those with me.
“But when I think about not rocking up to set and seeing Tim, who’s part of the grips team, with his guitar hanging out of his van and serenading people at half six in the morning… It really has been like a family.”
She further addressed her absence from screens but remained coy whilst insisting it wasn’t the last we’d seen of Nancy.
