Daisy Campbell, who plays the character of Amelia Spencer (daughter of Ali Breckle and Daz Spencer) joined the ITV soap 13 years ago when she was eight years old. Amelia is currently in a relationship with Tom King and is a mum to 2-year-old Esther who she shares with Samson Dingle. However, the 21-year-old has admitted her departure “wasn’t my choice”.
A post shared by Daisy Arwen Campbell (@daisycampbellofficial) Speaking exclusively to The Mirror , Daisy explained: “It wasn’t my choice to leave Emmerdale and it was a shock at first. Being in Emmerdale is all I have ever known. I’ve spent the whole of my childhood growing up in the soap and it felt daunting.
” Since Amelia’s onscreen parents left Emmerdale, bosses have reportedly told Daisy they had “run out of storylines” for her. She added: “Once they explained, I totally got it. "Amelia isn’t part of the Dingles, her dad has left, Samson has gone now and she doesn’t have any family.
There is nowhere to take Amelia and I understand that. I feel incredibly lucky to have been in the soap for 13 years and to have been handed so many opportunities at such a young age." Daisy, who was told she would be leaving Emmerdale in May said she needed time to “grieve the part of Amelia” and initially didn’t tell most of the cast.
