Ex-Casualty star Amanda Henderson makes big life change after heartbreaking exit from drama

Actress Amanda Henderson has spoken of her sadness at leaving BBC medical drama Casualty - but she's decided she won't be leaving Cardiff, the city where the series is filmed. The 36-year-old, who is originally from Manchester, was talking to WalesOnline about the end of her character - Robyn Miller - who died after being involved in a car accident last month.

After finding out that her character would be getting killed off, Amanda recalled how she “cried a lot”. She added: “I think it’s good that I was so upset because it’s a testament to the job itself and how much I love being there. It’s okay to be gotten rid of but to be killed off, that means I can never come back.”

Of the response to her final episode, Amanda said: “The reaction has been incredible. I’ve been inundated with messages and everyone has just been so lovely and so wonderful. The negativity of everything that you can see on social media, I didn’t get any of that. I got such nice feedback from everyone.” For the latest TV and showbiz news sign up to our newsletter here.
