Last night on Coronation Street (Monday, June 3), Simon Barlow said his goodbyes to the cobbles as he jumped into a taxi out of Weatherfield.
He was off to join his dad Peter, working on the yacht he was staying on. Leanne was devastated though.
Corrie fans have now shared their delight over Simon Barlow’s recent soap departure.
Coronation Street: Simon Barlow’s exit
Yesterday evening, Leanne returned home from her Institute retreat and explained that she’d stayed an extra night without her phone on as a workshop had overran.
Seeing Ken in the flat, she soon realised that Simon was leaving Weatherfield to join Peter on the yacht.
She was livid that nobody had told her about Simon’s plans, with Nick informing her that he’d asked Rowan to pass on the message.
It wasn’t long before Simon’s loved ones then gathered to wave him off as he jumped into a taxi and left.
Leanne then switched on her laptop and told someone on the call that she missed them.

Another agreed: “Simon is gone! Hurrah Hurray. ”
