Charles Anderson star Kevin Mathurin has paid tribute to Emmerdale co-star Karene Peter, who has left her role of Naomi Walters after one year.
The actor took to Instagram to share a collection of pictures from their time together on the show, and captioned it with a sweet message.
‘So Naomi left the village for Ibiza last week. Sadly, for us as friends and a team, we dealt with the goodbyes months ago. I had to hold it down for no spoilers. But It wouldn’t feel right to go on without acknowledging how much you are missed right now,’ He wrote.
‘Karene, you gave so much jokes on set. You and Rebecca Sarker together was a PROBLEM!’ He joked, adding a rolling on the floor laughing emoji.
‘The energy was vibrant. The Naomi character was such a headache for Charles to deal with on paper, but you always played her, so you were left thinking, “She has a point, you know.”

‘You are a beautiful human being who knows her path. I really admire that. Stay on it. You’re definitely heading in the right direction. PEACE MI DAWTA!’
Karene was quick to respond to her on-screen dad’s post, writing: ‘Love you so so much words can’t describe! Blessed to know you Farda. Missing you always.’
Fans too rushed to the comments to give their best wishes.
‘She will be missed on the show,’ one fan said, adding a red heart emoji.
‘Aww lovely pic, I liked Naomi we’ll miss her,’ another said, while a third added, ‘Awwww how lovely hopefully Karene will come back one day.’
During her relatively short time on the show, Karene has been involved in some huge storylines, most notably one that saw Naomi stand trial for attacking Nicola King (Nicola Wheeler).
After being found not guilty, she was able to settle into life in the village, but soon worried dad Charles by becoming romantically involved with Alex Moore – Dawn Fletcher’s (Olivia Bromley) drug dealer ex.
Luckily for Charles, it wasn’t long before Alex was out of the picture.
In more recent scenes, Naomi made the decision to leave the Emmerdale village after quitting her job at the Woolpack.
A conversation with Victor (Eddie Osei) soon encouraged her to take the money she had borrowed from Vinny Dingle (Bradley Johnson) and start a new life away from the village.
