Hollyoaks Walter Deveraux exit scenes leaves fans baffled as star quits Channel 4 soap

Hollyoaks has aired a surprise exit for Walter Deveraux.

Actor Trevor A. Toussaint has been a mainstay in the Channel 4 soap since 2018 as the deeply-religious Price Slice shopkeeper.

Over the years, viewers have seen Walter grow to become more tolerant of his neighbours ever since his grandson Mitchell Deveraux (Imran Adams) came out as gay.

However, Hollyoaks confirmed the character’s shock departure following Walter’s decision to leave the village during Tuesday’s first-look episode on E4.

A message posted on the show’s official social media accounts read: “Wishing all the best to @TAToussaint.

“Thank you for bringing us Walter! So many fantastic moments, we really are going to miss you! Love from all of us at team #Hollyoaks!”

Some fans were left confused over Walter’s exit scenes as he left the village for Jamacia despite needing a kidney transplant.

One fan penned: “Soooo.. is that Walters exit?”

Another added: “Walter’s last scene deserved a bit more than an end credit scene.”

A third person said: “What about his need for a transplant?”

While a fourth added: “Does he not need a kidney transplant anymore?

Walter had been weighing up leaving the village to go to Jamaica, but was conflicted because of the problems between Felix Westwood (Richard Blackwood) and DeMarcus Westwood (Tomi Ade).

He was at first resistant to Pearl Anderson’s (Dawn Hope) offer to fly him to Jamaica because he felt their family was in “disarray”.

Felix had been trying to get to the bottom of why DeMarcus wanted to take antidepressants.

He encouraged his son to see a therapist first and they could then decide if the medication was right for his mental health.

Walter was listening in to the conversation and shared with son-in-law Felix how proud he has become of the man and father Felix is now.

With Pearl promising to take care of his family, Walter explained that his decision was made for him — he would be leaving the village to go to Jamaica.

The family shared a big hug, and in a post-credits scene, he was shown handing over the keys to the Price Slice to Pearl.

“The Price Slice is yours. Look after her for me,” he said.

Hollyoaks airs every weeknight at 6.30pm on Channel 4 followed by a first-look episode on E4 at 7pm
