Ferreira, 25, who plays Kat on the popular drama series, revealed via an Instagram Story on Wednesday that her time on the show has come to a tearful end. “After four years of getting to embody the most special and enigmatic character kat, I’m having to say a very teary eyed goodbye,” she wrote alongside fan art created by Hunter Schafer, who plays Jules Vaughn in the hit show. “I hope many of you could see yourself is could see yourself in her like i did and that she brought you joy to see her journey into the character she is today,” Ferreira continued. “I put all my care and love into her and i hope you guys could feel it.” She concluded the post: “Love you katherine hernandez,” along with a red heart and a cat emoji. While Ferreira didn’t explain the reason for her exit, fans previously speculated that her character was going to take a backseat on the show after she got significantly less screen time in the series’ second season. The Nope actress addressed the rumors earlier this year, reassuring fans that she was only featured less because of the show’s natural storylines. “There’s a huge cast,” she told Entertainment Tonight back in April, adding, “so we’ll see everyone. Everyone gets their time.” She also shut down speculation that she was feuding with the show’s director Sam Levinson, which some fans believed was the reason her screen time was reduced in Season 2. But Ferreira put the rumors to rest by stating, “What’s interesting about this season is there are so many more eyes on it that even the news cycle has been so interesting to see,” per Insider. “I’ve seen so many different things and a lot of it is untrue and some of it’s kind of like mundane little things.” Euphoria was renewed for a third season back in February, although a release date has not yet been set.
