EMMERDALE’S Charley Webb has teased her TV comeback after quitting Debbie Dingle role.
The actress – who played the character on the ITV soap for nearly two decades- said that she would be returning to our screens at some point in the future.
During an Instagram Q&A, a fan asked if she would be returning to acting anytime soon.
She replied: “When the right thing comes to me, I’ll be back. Can’t wait.”
But the star did not confirm if she’s landed any other roles just yet or if she plans on making a return to The Dales one day.
Charley confirmed she quit her role of Debbie a year ago.
Over the top of a picture of her, husband Matthew and their three kids, she wrote: “This is always my most asked question but I’ve never answered it before because I’ve never wanted to make a big deal of it.
“I left to have Ace 2 years ago. I went back at the end of last year for 10 weeks to complete a storyline.
“So, I guess officially it’s been a year. I never felt the need to announce it which is why we didn’t.”
“Matthew being caught up in the row on set fuelled her decision to step away.
Charley’s co-star husband Matthew Wolfenden, 41, was recently caught up in a racism bullying row on set.
Insiders told us in the run-up to Christmas that Charley, 33, who last appeared on screen at the start of the year, made it clear she will not return.
A source said: “Charley is closing the door on Emmerdale for good and won’t be going back.
“After she gave birth to her third child with Matthew in 2019 she returned briefly before taking some time out again.
“The past few months have given her time to think about the future and it is one that doesn’t involve Emmerdale.
“Charley has been on Emmerdale for 19 years and her character Debbie has had a rollercoaster ride. It’s time for a new adventure for Charley.
“Naturally the door is open for her character, who is now living in Scotland, should she change her mind. But for now she is looking to the future.”
