Coronation Street has confirmed that James Burrows will be leaving as Ali Neeson.

James, who joined the cast in 2018, has already filmed his final scenes, a Coronation Street spokesperson told Digital Spy.

Little is known about Ali's exit storyline, but The Sun is reporting that Ali will leave the cobbles in March and won't be killed off.

Ali is currently involved in a love triangle. His ex-partner Maria Connor (Samia Longchambon) recently turned to him following her fresh suspicions about Gary Windass (Mikey North). Maria and Ali shared a passionate kiss, although Maria later learned that her suspicions about Gary were incorrect this time.

Maria and Gary will announce their engagement to everybody this week, and Ali will politely shake Gary's hand.

But Maria will also confide in Carla Connor (Alison King) and confess to having sex with Ali.

Mikey North recently said that Gary and Ali will "definitely come to blows" if he ever finds out what happened.



"I think Gary has seen the error of his ways, but if he were to find out about Maria and Ali, I think that could send him off the rails again," he said.

Coronation Street airs Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at 7.30pm and 8.30pm on ITV.
