Emmerdale's Isobel Steele's star-studded soap leaving meal as co-stars gutted

Isobel Steele has enjoyed a swish Emmerdale farewell meal with co-stars paying tribute to her following her character’s death.

Earlier this week, Emmerdale viewers saw Liv Flaherty, played by Isobel Steele, become the latest victim of the soap’s 50th anniversary storm. In shocking scenes, where Liv was crushed by a caravan, fans saw some deeply emotional scenes.

Confirming her exit, Emmerdale released an interview with Isobel saying goodbye to fans. Isobel, 21, said: “Hey everyone, I assume you’ve now watched the episode where Liv died. I hope it made you cry. I definitely cried when I read it.

“It has been a pleasure and it has been the best seven years of my life. It has been all worth it because of you. Thank you so much.”

Isobel took to Twitter to share photos from her leaving meal with Emmerdale colleagues past and present. She posted: “My Leaving meal. It was such a perfect night xxx.”

Isobel’s co-stars have paid tribute to her. Danny Miller, who has recently returned to the soap as Aaron Dingle, said: “Thank you for the last seven years. The bond Aaron and Liv had was incomparable. Nobody ever came close.

“And that’s why you’ll always be in my life. Your Mum, Dad and Con will be so proud. Onward and upwards now for you our kid. Love you mate. See you at the caravan.”

While, Bradley Johnson, who cheekily interrupted Isobel’s leaving interview, added: “What can I say. Three years working with this legend. And what a few years it's been.

“To have this storyline and being part of @emmerdale 50th has been an absolute dream. Go and smash it @Isobel_steele.”
