Hollyoaks icon Stephanie Waring has confessed she "begged" producers not to cut her from the show. The actress, who has played Cindy Cunningham for almost 30 years, found herself among the 20 stars given the chop from the Channel 4 soap and has now opened up about the emotional turmoil of her departure.
"I was being drip fed the names of the people who were going, and I remember crying at one of them, and I had this gut feeling that I would be too", the 46 year old shared. Clinging to hope, Stephanie recalled signing "a year-long contract" just before her world was turned upside down." The bosses delivered the news "read from a script", with her character's fate held back until the last moment, reports the Mirror.
"I was clutching at anything - telling them 'but I was the first person to give birth on the show! ' I could see the distress I was causing them because they were upset that I was so upset."
