Emmerdale Star Shares Surprising New Project After Heartbreaking Exit Scenes
In a twist that has fans both excited and emotional, a beloved Emmerdale star has revealed their latest venture—far removed from the Dales—following an exit that left viewers in tears.
💔 A Tearful Goodbye Before a Bold Fresh Start
After departing Emmerdale in a high‑impact storyline earlier in 2025, the actor—Daisy Campbell, known for playing Amelia Spencer—has confirmed she’s found a new creative path that’s both unexpected and uplifting. Her exit scenes, which saw Amelia tragically leave the village after losing her mother and experiencing intense personal grief, struck a powerful chord with the audience. As Emmerdale viewers poured in sympathy across social media, Daisy herself admitted the farewell “made me cry” when she first read the scripts. (turn0news18)
Rather than fading from public view, Daisy has already announced her involvement in a special theatre project, while also hinting at future work beyond the soap.
🎭 On Stage Next: A Role That Inspires
According to The Sun report, Daisy is now engaged in a new stage production tied to her passion for exploring meaningful storytelling. Though details remain under wraps, early teasers suggest the play may explore contemporary relationships and grief—opening up material that contrasts sharply with the trauma-heavy Amelia arc.
For Daisy, the move marks a shift from being defined by grief onscreen to reclaiming identity through performance. After 13 years in the village, her chapter as Amelia Spencer may have closed—but her artistic journey is just beginning. (turn0news18)

🌟 Career Moves Beyond the Dales
This isn’t the first time Emmerdale alumni have pivoted post-soap with flair. But Daisy’s transition feels particularly poignant, given the emotional weight of her exit storyline. It echoes other departures—like Roxy Shahidi, who moved into yoga instruction and online teaching after her character Leyla’s tragic death on the show. For her, the move signified rebirth rather than disappearance. (turn0news11)
Like Roxy, Daisy is clearly embracing opportunities beyond television drama—choosing paths that enrich her both personally and artistically.
🔮 What’s Ahead?
Insiders suggest Daisy may not end her association with Emmerdale entirely—few doors close for long in soap land. But right now, her focus is on exploring live performance and developing a broader creative portfolio. There’s also talk she might pursue opportunities in podcasting or writing, echoing other multi-hyphenate actors who find growth after leaving long-running dramas. (turn0news18)
Industry sources hint her next project may debut in late 2025 or early 2026—one that could underscore how grief, healing, and creative reinvention can coexist onscreen and beyond.
