The heartbreaking scenes, which aired on February 20, marked the end of Natalie Ann Jamieson’s six-year run as the beloved character.
Amy’s fate was sealed when she became one of three casualties in the devastating stunt,
joining Suzy Merton and Leyla Harding as the characters who did not survive the catastrophic accident.

The storyline has left fans reeling, and the actress behind Amy has spoken out about her departure, revealing the journey that led to her character’s tragic end.

Natalie Ann Jamieson Bids Farewell to Amy Wyatt

Taking to social media after her exit episode aired, Jamieson expressed her gratitude for her time on the show and paid tribute to her character.
She wrote, “Goodbye Amy ❤️ I have had the best six years of my life playing this gobby Geordie with a heart of gold!” Her heartfelt message resonated with fans who had grown to love Amy over the years.
In an exclusive interview, Jamieson shared insight into how her departure came about, explaining that she had been in discussions with the show’s bosses about Amy’s future. She revealed, “I had been asking for meetings about what was coming up for Amy and saying that I’d really like some challenging, new stuff.”
Unbeknownst to her at the time, the producers already had a major storyline in the works. “They knew they had this coming up, and they didn’t have anything planned for Amy beyond that. It worked out that this was going to be Amy’s exit, and I didn’t know it was going to be a death at first.”
A Bittersweet Exit
When she finally learned that Amy would be written out in such a dramatic way, Jamieson admitted to having mixed emotions. “When they told me, I was like, ‘Oh!’” she recalled. “It’s really hard to know whether you would prefer for your character to die if you’re leaving or to just go off in the back of a taxi.”

Ultimately, she came to embrace the decision, recognizing that it gave Amy a powerful and memorable send-off. “What a way to go,” she said, adding that she was honored to be part of such a high-stakes storyline. “I’m so proud of the cast and crew who achieved all this in these last few episodes.”
A Shocking and Emotional Goodbye
Amy’s final moments were filled with heartache. After the limousine plunged onto a frozen lake, she fought desperately to escape, only to fall through the ice. Although she was eventually rescued, the ordeal led to hypothermia and a series of medical complications. In a tragic twist, Amy momentarily showed signs of recovery, squeezing her son Kyle’s hand and sharing a final, emotional exchange with her husband Matty. However, her condition rapidly deteriorated, leading to a fatal cardiac arrest.
Her death has left her loved ones, including Matty and her mother Kerry Wyatt, utterly devastated, and the storyline’s aftermath is set to have major repercussions for the village. Fans have taken to social media to express their sadness over her departure, with many praising Jamieson’s emotional performance.

Reflecting on Her Journey
Looking back at her time on Emmerdale, Jamieson couldn’t be more grateful. In her farewell message, she wrote, “I’ve got so many amazing things to say about @emmerdale, but for tonight, just thank you for everything! And thank you to everyone who came on the journey with me and for all the beautiful messages you’ve sent!”
She also spoke about how much Amy meant to her, saying, “I always say about Amy, in real life, she would definitely be one of my friends. She would be the kind of person that I would be drawn to, because she’s always there for everyone in such a fierce way.”
Jamieson leaves the soap with nothing but fond memories, and while Amy’s exit was undeniably tragic, it ensures that her character will be remembered for years to come.
