She recently ended her relationship with Emmerdale co-star Danny Miller, and then found out that the soap wouldn\u2019t be renewing her contract, so Kirsty-Leigh Porter decided a holiday was in order.<\/p>\n

The actress, who plays Roz Fielding in the ITV1 soap, grabbed her tiny string bikini and headed to Mallorca to soak up the sun.<\/p>\n

And when she wasn\u2019t frolicking in the turquoise water and lying in the sand, Kirsty kicked around a football on the beach.<\/p>\n

\"Looking<\/p>\n

Looking for work: Kirsty-Leigh Porter’s contract is not being renewed on Emmerdale and is therefore looking for a new project<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Kirsty was definitely showing her ex, who plays Aaron Livesy on Emmerdale, what he has been missing out on, as she flaunted her toned figure on the Spanish beach.<\/p>\n

The couple split at the end of March, which was only two weeks after the 22-year-old was told that her Emmerdale contract wouldn\u2019t be renewed when it came to an end, the News of the World reported.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

And to add salt in the wound, her former boyfriend Danny, 20, was awarded the Best Actor award at last week\u2019s British Soap Awards.<\/p>\n

Kirsty-Leigh joined the soap a year ago as a bad girl, who stirred trouble in the village by playing a key role in Holly Barton\u2019s descent into drug addiction.<\/p>\n

\"Look<\/p>\n

Look at me! Kirsty-Leigh showed off her incredibly toned figure on the beach in the tiny bikini while posing in front of photographers<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Fitness regime: Miss Porter ran along the beach and kicked a football around for a workout as photographers snapped her on holiday<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Emmerdale\u2019s producer, Stuart Blackburn, said: \u2018The character of Roz was brought into Emmerdale for the purpose of Holly\u2019s addiction storyline, which has now concluded.<\/p>\n

\u2018Kirsty will therefore sadly be leaving us at the end of her current contract. She is a huge talent and an absolute professional.<\/p>\n

\u2018The door will be left wide open for a possible return in the future.\u2019<\/p>\n

\"Ball<\/p>\n

Ball skills: The actress picked up her beach football to throw it over to a friend<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Show-stopping smile: Miss Porter flashed her pearly whites as she strolled into the ocean in Mallorca<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

While Porter said of her exit: \u2018I am looking forward to venturing on to new opportunities.<\/p>\n

\u2018I have loved every minute and the pleasure of working with some wonderful and talented people.\u2019<\/p>\n

The actress previously played the part of Zoe Wilson in Coronation Street and has had a number of small roles in shows such as Doctors, The Royal Today and Shameless.<\/p>\n

\"Chillaxing:<\/p>\n

Chillaxing: Porter enjoys a lie down in the surf<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"Making<\/p>\n

Making a splash: Kirsty ran into the water but forgot to take her sunglasses off<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"On<\/p>\n

On screen: Kirsty-Leigh playing the role of Roz Fielding on Emmerdale alongside Holly Barton, played by Sophie Powles<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
