Roxanne McKee quits Hollyoaks
28/10/2008 - 16:00
Hollyoaks Roxanne McKee has announced she will leave the soap in a gripping storyline at Christmas.
A statement on the Hollyoaks website said: "The rumours have been rife for months now, but today we can confirm that Roxanne McKee will leave Hollyoaks in an explosive storyline that will climax this Christmas."
Roxanne will play a key role in the plotline, which sees her character, Louise Summers, choosing whether to remain loyal to her love-interest, Warren, who murdered her estranged husband.
Roxanne arrived on screens in February 2005 after she was discovered through 'Hollyoaks On The Pull' - a Channel 4 initiative to scout new talent.
The 27-year-old actress, who was voted Sexiest Female at the last two consecutive British Soap Awards, has hinted that she hopes to try her luck in Hollywood.
"I don't see why not. I think you should aim for the stars - and hopefully avoid ending up in the clouds," she told Look magazine in May 2008.
