Fans of the ITV soap Coronation Street will know that Aggie Bailey exited the cobbles rather quietly, with the character breaking up with her husband Ed off screen.
This marriage split news came after Aggie’s mysterious ‘disappearance’ in which she hadn’t been on screen since June 2023.
The Sun has now reported that Lorna Laidlaw will be switching the cobbles for a sunnier setting as she lands a new acting role abroad.
Coronation Street: Aggie Bailey’s soap exit
Whilst the disappearance of Lauren Bolton might be taking over our screens at the time being, Corrie fans have also been concerned about the welfare of another Corrie character who ‘vanished’ from scenes for quite some time.
Yes, Aggie Bailey was last seen on screen in June 2023 after taking part in an auction in the Bistro with her old neighbour, Yvette.
It seems that Aggie was also about to do another kind of bidding though as she secretly bid farewell to the cobbles for good.
With Aggie suddenly not being around, Ed revealed that she had gone to look after a sick aunt in Birmingham.
However, with Ed turning back to gambling again and collecting debt, Michael informed Aggie of the situation. Aggie then split up with Ed and ended their marriage over the phone and never returned to the cobbles again… How bizarre!
