Adele Silva bows out from 'Emmerdale'

Emmerdale will bid farewell to Kelly Windsor in the coming weeks as Adele Silva has finished filming her latest stint on the soap, Digital Spy can confirm.

Kelly, who has been at the centre of Jimmy King's amnesia storyline for most of the year, will depart the village towards the end of the month following weeks of scheming and manipulation.

Show bosses lured Silva back to Emmerdale late last year, but it is understood that producers only ever intended her stay in the village to be a short one for Jimmy's current plotline.

Silva is now working on a new film titled Strippers vs. Werewolves, which she recently billed as a Shaun of the Dead-style black comedy. However, a future Emmerdale return has not been ruled out for Kelly.

An ITV spokesperson told DS this morning: "The character of Kelly was brought back specifically for the amnesia storyline which will conclude shortly. Adele therefore finished filming two weeks ago but there is every chance Kelly could return later in the year."

Emmerdale fans recently saw Kelly's downfall as Jimmy remembered that she caused his memory loss by attacking him in Peterborough. Things are expected to get worse for Kelly in future episodes as more of Jimmy's memories return.
