But my heart had to be this full of all the memories, good times, challenges and triumphs, to be able to break at all…so that makes me grateful."
She went on to give praise for the hard work of the cast and crew, paying tribute to the "friendships, the scripts, the locations, the one liners, the early mornings, the last minute changes, all the highs and lows: I’m going to miss it all. The people of this show are a talented bunch, and I’m proud to have worked alongside them, it’s the people I will miss most of all".
