Helen Flanagan has quit Coronation Street for good, according to reports.
The actress first took up the role of Rosie Webster on the cobbles at the age of 10.
And while she hasn't been seen in Weatherfield since 2018, she has reportedly decided to call it quits altogether and has potentially shut the door on a return to the show 20 years later.

The Mirror reports the star, 31, has decided to focus on her three children and other projects.
A source told The Sun : "She wants to focus on her three children and has other career dreams, including acting roles.
"In the short term the break would be around two to three more years but there’s no saying she will come back even after that.
"Helen loves Coronation Street, her character and the family but it takes up a huge amount of her time and it’s become unfeasible."
Although the source claims this is the closing chapter for Helen, they also said ITV are happy to leave the door ajar should she wish to return in the future.
The MEN has contacted ITV for comment.
The Bury soap star, who formerly won FHM Sexiest Woman in the World, gave birth to her third child in March.
Helen and her footballer fiancé Scott Sinclair welcomed baby Charlie to the world, with the little boy joining siblings Matilda, six, and four-year-old Delilah.
Last week, she returned to her former home in Scotland, where she shared plenty of updates of her Glaswegian staycation.
The couple lived there for four years when he played football for Celtic.
They left last year after Scott signed a new deal with Preston North End.
The mum-of-three looked content and relaxed on the trip to the beauty spots of Loch Lomond with her young son and mother Julia.
She beamed in the holiday snaps with her now five-month-old son, while doting grandmother Julia even joined in the action for a family snap on the beach.
Meanwhile, in August, the star also admitted that she would be keen to have another baby, reversing her thoughts that baby number three would be the last.
"When you feel so dreadful, you do think, ‘No way, I will absolutely never have another baby’," she admitted.
"But as soon as Charlie arrived I just thought, ‘You’re so worth it'. I wouldn’t rule out another. I’ve always said in my head I wanted four.”
