Jamie Kenna said he was "gutted" as he announced his Coronation Street exit.
The 48-year-old has played Phill Whittaker on the Cobbles since 2021. The character arrived on the Cobbles when Fiz Stape and Tyrone Dobbs' relationship was on the rocks.
He quickly hit it off with the character, played by Jennie McAlpine, and their romance continued to go from strength to strength. The two were set to be married, but Fiz had second thoughts and has rekindled her relationship with Tyrone.
