The actress, who plays Gail Platt on the soap, is leaving the soap after half a century.
The actress plays Gail Platt and has been at the centre of some of the show's most high-profile storylines and controversies over the last half a century.
"I made the decision at the start of the year and spoke to the producers who were very kind and understanding. Gail holds the Coronation Street record of ’most married-female', having walked down the aisle six times. Helen, who was born in Ossett, West Yorkshire, will start filming her exit story next month and the emotional scenes will be on screen at the end of the year.
“Her ill-fated marriage to Richard Hillman was one of the most ground-breaking stories in soap history and cemented Gail’s already established status as one of the Corrie greats.
