Lyndon said he wasn’t leaving!
EMMERDALE star Lyndon Ogbourne has quit the soap despite bosses begging him to stay.
The popular actor, who plays twisted Nathan Wylde, will now leave at the end of the year when his current contract runs out.
Executive producer Gavin Blyth had tried to persuade the 27-year-old London-based star to stay on.
Bosses have also promised to keep the door open for a possible return and will not be killing him off.
Gavin said: “We will be very sorry to lose a character like Nathan from the show. He’s really come into his own in recent months.”
But speaking exclusively to the Daily Star Sunday, Lyndon said: “Emmerdale has been such an incredible experience for me and the final act of the Wyldes’ drama will be so gripping. I’ve had great fun and learned so much from creating one of the most love-to-hate Emmerdale characters.
