Emmerdale star Matt Healy has announced that he is quitting the soap.

Show chiefs have confirmed that they have a dramatic exit plot lined up for the actor, who has played businessman Matthew King for five years. His final scenes are expected to air in December.

Healy told the Daily Star: "After five years of wearing Matthew's suits every morning and having to shave every day, I feel ready to pull on some bermuda shorts and grow a goatee! But I've had a brilliant time at Emmerdale and I'm excited about what lies ahead."

Emmerdale's series producer Anita Turner added: "Matthew King will leave Emmerdale in an explosive storyline. We wish Matt all the very best."

Turner also promised that Healy's departure will not affect his on-screen brothers Jimmy (Nick Miles) and Carl (Tom Lister), who will remain in the Dales.

EMMERDALE chiefs are hunting for a new farmer — in a bid to take the show back to its rural roots.

The show, which used to be called Emmerdale Farm, has only one farmer left — Andy Sugden, played by Kelvin Fletcher.

Producers want to beef up on country characters in the Yorkshire-based soap after Clive Hornby — who played Jack Sugden — died last month.

A senior insider told TV Biz: “We want to create a new farming dynasty. Families and farming are the cornerstone of Emmerdale and it’s important we don’t forget that.

“We want to take the show back to its farming roots, while keeping it sexy and exciting.”

The new man will be a land-owning LADY KILLER — provisionally named John Naylor. He is described as a “charming, forty-something Casanova who will be an instant hit with the local ladies."

He will have a family who will join the cast in the spring.

The insider said: “We are in the final few days of casting and hope to announce our new man very shortly.

“The actor who is confirmed in the role will join the cast in late September and begin filming then. Our new man will become a major character. He’ll be bringing lots of new storylines and new faces to the village.”

The move comes after the show has lost a string of stars.

Earlier this week hunky Matt Healy — who plays moody ladies’ man Matthew King — announced plans to quit.

Roxanne Pallett (Jo Sugden) and Emily Symons (Louise Appleton) are also on the verge of leaving.
