Chelsea Fox to leave EastEnders

EastEnders minx Chelsea Fox will depart Albert Square later this year after actress Tiana Benjamin announced she was quitting the BBC soap.

Benjamin, 25, who has been on the show since May 2006, has quit to pursue other projects.

Chelsea first appeared in Walford as a surprise love interest for Grant Mitchell and was joined soon after by feisty mother Denise and sister Libby.

Over her four years Chelsea has dated many of Walford's male residents including Sean Slater and more recently Jack Branning. But other than being a maneater, her character has been underused. Chelsea had a short-lived and now forgotten about drug habit and served time in prison for falsely accusing Sean of attacking Patrick back in 2007.

But Chelsea may yet have an explosive exit from Walford with her father Lucas' murder secret yet to be discovered. Lucas has already killed twice, so could Chelsea find out the terrible truth or will she be unstable Lucas' next victim?
