Popular Coronation Street actor Jack James Ryan has shared the reason why he decided to quit the soap, leaving his role as Jacob Hay after two years.
The character on the ITV soap, which airs on Virgin Media in Ireland, left in emotional scenes on Friday night as he was forced out of Weatherfield by his evil dad Damon Hay.
Viewers previously watched as Jacob was dragged into his father's criminal world after Damon used The Bistro for a drug delivery that went wrong.
