“End of an era @deanoandrews… The best soap dad I could have ever asked for. Truly,” she wrote.

“Thanks for covering up murders, beating up bad boyfriends and letting me live in your mansion rent-free. Here’s to the Taylors.”

The post, which included a photo featuring Bromley and Andrews with their co-stars on set, received a warm response from fans and followers in the comment section.

One wrote: “@oliviabromley_ I’m shocked. Can’t believe he’s gone. @deanoandrews you were a great actor.”

“@deanoandrews will be truly missed in the screen. Shame he’s been killed off,” added a second fan, with a third writing: “I’m so peeved that they killed him off. I was so hoping it was an extravagant-only-in-soap set up.”
