Well its now been confirmed that Ashley Jenson will be leaving Ugly Betty even though she denied rumors of this nature only a few months ago!

Jenson plays Betty’s best friend Christina McKinney in the US drama, so no doubt it will be an emotional departure. She is set to leave the show at the end of the current season.

The scottish actress has already got other projects lined up and has been cast in CBS comedy pilot Accidentally On Purpose. She will play a movie critic based in San Francisco who has a fling with a younger man which results in her being pregnant.

Executive producer for Ugly Betty Silvio Horta said:

“While we’re sad that Ashley will not be returning next season as a series regular, she is still a member of the Ugly Betty family. So don’t be surprised if you see Christina pop back up in Betty’s life.”
