Emmerdale fans were devastated after Fiona Wade's exit from the show was confirmed this week.
The soap star has become a fan favourite on the long running ITV show since she first joined the cast as Priya Sharma in 2011. She has since played a key role in a number of major storylines, including her turbulent marriage to Rakesh Kotecha.
The character has recently been battling confidence issues since she suffered severe burns after being targeted by the villainous Meena Jutla. However, her dramatic time in the fictional Yorkshire village is about to come to an end as ITV confirmed to Digital Spy she will be filming her final scenes in the upcoming months.
