Her main storyline featured her rocky relationship with Jamie, which came to an end in 2017.

Her last scene saw her tell friend Sophie Habboo that she needed time away from the drama and was last seen leaving Mimi Bouchard’s pyjama party.
Frankie has generally kept out of the limelight since leaving the show and keeps her romance with her new partner relatively private.
