Corrie's Cathy Matthews star Melanie Hill quits soap after seven years

Coronation Street star Melanie Hill has revealed she is going to leave the cobbles behind after playing the character of Cathy Matthews for the past seven years.

“It’s not been an easy thing to decide. My family has been important but the pandemic has made a lot of people think about the future,” she told The Mirror. “I absolutely love everybody but it’s made me think about my family a lot and what the priorities are in my life.” Following having to take time out to look after her 88 year old mum in Sunderland recently, Melanie has made the decision to quit the soap and pursue more roles such as The Syndicate, which will give her more time for her family between jobs.
