Channique Sterling-Brown Confirms Coronation Street Exit After Three Years

She says a faith-led decision made in spring convinced her she had completed Dee-Dee’s journey.

Overview

  • Sterling-Brown has wrapped filming and called her last day on set emotional, taking Dee-Dee’s ‘D’ necklace and some costumes as keepsakes.
  • She deliberated for months over a renewal offer before deciding to leave, saying she felt it was the right time after achieving what she came to do.
  • Producer Kate Brooks encouraged her to think it over, but the team ultimately supported the decision following a nerve‑wracking conversation.
  • Storyline details remain under wraps, though she says the exit feels right for Dee-Dee, with the final episodes expected in the coming weeks and no fixed air date announced.
  • Looking ahead, the 2023 British Soap Awards Best Newcomer plans to pursue stage work as well as roles in film, drama and comedy.
