Emmerdale: Daisy Campbell opens up on Amelia axe

In a recent interview with The Mirror, actress Daisy Campbell revealed that her character of Amelia has been axed from the soap after 13 years.

Her final scenes are due to air before the year is out.

Daisy admitted: “It wasn’t my choice to leave Emmerdale and it was a shock at first. Being in Emmerdale is all I have ever known. I’ve spent the whole of my childhood growing up in the soap and it felt daunting.

“Once they explained, I totally got it.

“Amelia isn’t part of the Dingles, her dad has left, Samson has gone now and she doesn’t have any family. There is nowhere to take Amelia and I understand that. I feel incredibly lucky to have been in the soap for 13 years and to have been handed so many opportunities at such a young age.”

Whilst being upset at first, Daisy is now viewing the axe as an opportunity to ‘push herself’ with new opportunities.

How will Amelia leave the soap?

Confirming that the ‘door will be left open’ for Amelia, Daisy has ruled out her character’s death.

But, what does this mean for Amelia? With Tom’s comeuppance just around the corner, will Amelia’s exit have something to do with this?

And, will she leave the village with her daughter Esther? What will become of Amelia?
