EastEnders star Rose Ayling-Ellis to exit BBC soap as Frankie with final scenes filmed

Rose Ayling-Ellis is set to depart her role as Frankie Lewis in EastEnders later this year after joining the show back in 2020.

The 27-year-old is the first deaf actor to play a regular deaf character on the BBC soap and has been part of a number of big storylines, including the discovery that she is Mick’s daughter after he was abused as a child.

BBC soap bosses have confirmed that Rose will bow out of Walford in a storyline set to air this autumn, which she has already filmed her final scenes for.
