Viewers watched as Chloe reeled from her father Harry’s death – before quickly turning it to her advantage.
After Charity Dingle shot Harry to save husband Mackenzie Boyd, Chloe quickly told the couple that she would lie to the police and say it was murder if Mack didn’t agree to let her and son Reuben go for good.
She told him he had to choose between Charity and Reuben – and he chose Charity.
Allowing Mackenzie one last cuddle, she packed him into the car and drove away – with her dad’s millions now coming her way for a new life.
Actress Jessie said: “I had the best two years of my life playing Chloe and part of Emmerdale.
“During those two years it became no less surreal to walk through the stage door in the studio or stand outside the Woolpack in the village.
“I feel privileged to have been given this opportunity and to be trusted with such wonderful stories.
“I really need to mark the bingo soap opera card; giving birth, discovering new family members, a big stunt, a soapy slap, and even a classic taxi exit!
“All the while working with incredibly talented people that I grew up watching on screen and learning from.
“I’m sure you’ve heard from other cast members how being in Emmerdale is like being part of a big family, but it couldn’t be truer.
“The cast and crew of Emmerdale are some of the kindest people I’ve ever been lucky enough to meet and they’ve all made Emmerdale feel like a second home.”
She added: “What has made my time on Emmerdale even more rewarding is the viewers’ reaction to Chloe and her stories.

“Meeting the fans of the show and hearing how much it means to them is such a special experience and always makes me proud and happy to be even a small part of something we love so much. I can’t thank you enough for that.
“It’s really hard to articulate how much Emmerdale means to me and it wasn’t an easy decision to leave such a wonderful place and such wonderful people, I will miss them so much but I feel incredibly lucky to be coming away with amazing memories and friends for life!”
