Glee star Jayma Mays has revealed that it was not her choice to leave the hit show.

The 34-year-old, who had played guidance counsellor Emma Pilsbury since the beginning of the show, told Metro that the show's creative team had decided to write her out.

She said: "It wasn't my choice. The creators decided to do it.

"Some other characters will also be leaving this season. It's very sad to be going but I understand why they do it."

And she also addressed the passing of star Cory Monteith - whose tribute episode was shown on UK TV on Friday.

She said: "It's been really hard. We just filmed his memorial episode and it was a very difficult thing to do. It's been a very sad and difficult year for everyone."

Glee creator Ryan Murphy recently revealed that the next series of the show will be the last.
