EastEnders has confirmed that Bernadette ‘Bernie’ Taylor will be leaving Albert Square soon.
That means that every member of the Taylor family will no longer be on the soap, bringing to an end the clan’s eight years on the soap.
An EastEnders spokesperson announced actor Clair Norris’ departure, stating: “We can confirm that Clair will be leaving EastEnders later this year and we wish her all the best for the future.”
The Taylors first arrived in Walford in 2017, and have slowly left over the years.
Chantelle, who wasn’t introduced until 2019, made her last appearance in 2020 when she was murdered by her evil husband Gray Atkins. Keegan Butcher-Baker departed in late 2022 with Tiffany.
