Chicago P.D. is set to lose one of its own as Tracy Spiridakos, who plays Detective Hailey Upton, is set to depart the show after Season 11.
The news was first reported by Variety, though it is currently unknown when exactly in the upcoming season she is due to exit.
Spiridakos first appeared in Season 4 in a recurring capacity, before being promoted to a series regular in Season 5. She has been a part of the show ever since, and her character has become a fan favorite.
Upton has been a key part of the Intelligence team, and her departure will no doubt leave a big hole in the show.
It is unclear why Spiridakos is leaving the show, but it is likely that she is looking to pursue other opportunities.
Chicago P.D. is set to return for its 11th season later this year, and it will be interesting to see how the show handles Upton’s departure.
Fans of the show will no doubt be sad to see Spiridakos go, but they can take comfort in the fact that she will be leaving the show on her own terms.
