AceShowbiz – Harley Bird, the voice behind children’s TV favourite “Peppa Pig”, is stepping down from the role after 13 years.
The 18-year-old began voicing the cartoon pig when she was just five years old, but is set to be replaced by nine-year-old Amelie Bea Smith, who becomes the fourth actress to take on character.
Bird, who won a BAFTA for the role in 2011 and performed songs for the recent “Peppa Pig My First Album” release, said, “Becoming the voice of Peppa Pig at the age of five was the start of an incredible journey, and I’ll never forget my time on the show.”
She added her co-stars on the show had “become like a family” and had given her “unforgettable memories,” adding she was “looking forward to starting the next chapter” and wished Smith “the best of luck” in the role.
“Peppa Pig” co-creators Neville Astley and Mark Baker said, “As our longest-standing Peppa, Harley’s award-winning contribution to the show over the past 13 years has been tremendous, making her a key part of the success of Peppa Pig.”
Smith, who follows Bird, Lily Snowden-Fine, and Cecily Bloom as the fourth Peppa Pig voice actress, debuts in the role on Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2020.
