Claire Holt leaving the Originals


I was saddened when I read that she left the series. She was one of the reasons I was looking forward to it. Does anyone know why? Is she unhappy with her storylines, is she ill? Anything.

She will be missed and I wish her well.

She's pregnant. In the last episode she wore all black and they only used medium shots on her (from the boobs up). Her face is also fuller. I saw a blurry full shot of her and she had a belly. It was really quick, and unless you weren't looking for it then you wouldn't see it. I only know this because I read a rumor and think about it, it makes perfect sense as to why she would just leave. Maternity leave can be a bitch for writers.
