Emmerdale's Amelia Spencer, played by Daisy Campbell, is preparing to leave the popular ITV soap this Christmas.

The character has been a mainstay in the village since 2011, and this December will see her announce her departure.

As we bid farewell to Amelia after 13 years on Emmerdale, let's catch up with the rest of the Spencer clan...

Daz Spencer

Amelia's biological father, Daz Spencer, made his debut on the hit ITV soap in 2014 before exiting in 2019.

However, Daz will be making a comeback to Emmerdale later this month for Amelia's send-off, returning to the village for one episode to accompany her as she leaves.

The character is portrayed by Mark Jordon who, since leaving Emmerdale, has appeared in Holby City as Connor Coleman and The Long Shadow as Ray Wood, reports Leeds Live.

Off-screen, Mark, 59, is romantically involved with fellow Emmerdale actress Laura Norton, who plays Kerry Wyatt. The couple are parents to two young children, Jesse and Ronnie.

However, shortly after welcoming their children, the couple disclosed that both of their kids have been diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder called Usher syndrome, which affects their vision and hearing.

When they're not acting, Mark and Laura devote their time to raising awareness about Usher syndrome and fundraising for the UK charity CURE USHER.

Amelia's legal father, Dan Spencer, joined the popular ITV soap in 2011 and made his exit in 2023.

His departure was marked by a dramatic storyline where he was sentenced to eight years in prison for assaulting Amelia's online stalker, Lloyd, leaving him comatose and eventually leading to his death.

Since leaving Emmerdale, actor Liam Fox, who played Dan, took on the role of Abanazar in a pantomime version of Aladdin at St Helens Theatre Royal.

Ali Spencer

Ali Spencer, Amelia's mother, also joined Emmerdale in 2011 and left the show in 2015.

Post-Emmerdale, actress Kelli Hollis, who portrayed Ali, has appeared in several TV shows including Casualty, Doctors, Moving On, and most recently, Ackley Bridge, as Linda Loan Shark.
