Coronation Street Jenny’s exit storyline ‘unveiled’ after soap axe and it’s heartbreaking
Coronation Street fans are certain they ‘know’ how Jenny Connor will leave the cobbles, following the news of her shock axe.
Jenny (Sally Ann Matthews) has been a staple on the ITV soap for years, making her debut in 1986. And it’s fair to say she’s played a part in several big storylines.
From shock baby kidnap to her near-death experience being trapped inside a sinkhole, Jenny’s time in Weatherfield has not been short of drama.
Especially recently, as earlier this year, she was left devastated after being booted out of the Rovers Return following years of being the iconic pub’s landlady.
Sally’s exit as Jenny was confirmed this week
However, this week, it was announced that actress Sally will be leaving the soap – with an “exciting” exit storyline planned.
And according to The Sun, Sally has been left “devastated by the decision.” She also confirmed on social media that her time on soap had come to an end following a 10-year stint.
Now, fans have already ‘worked out’ how she leaves – and it’s not looking good.

A third agreed: “Yep, can’t see her having a happy exit in my opinion.” Another chimed in: “I thought the same.”
