We did not see this coming.
In rather unexpected news, Rory Cowan has decided to quit Mrs Browns Boys.
The actor, who plays Agnes’ son Rory, completed his last and final show at the O2 in London on Sunday.
Speaking to The Daily Mail, he explained that he has quit because he hasn’t been happy for two years.
“I hadn’t been happy working for the Mrs Brown’s Boys company for the last 18 months to two years.
I feel that 26 years is enough so I decided it was time to go. I told Brendan [O’Carroll, the writer and actor] on June 16 about my decision to leave.
That’s when I handed in my notice.
I’m not going into details about why I was unhappy. I did the final show, packed my stuff into a small Waitrose plastic bag and just left the venue.”
He went on to speak about what he plans to do.
“I’d love to do something like a weekend radio show but we’ll see what comes down the line. For now I’m going to take a little time off.”
