A young actress who starred in the BBC Wales drama series Belonging has been found hanged, police have confirmed.
The body of Stephanie Parker, 22, who played Stacey Weaver in the programme, was found on open ground near Pontypridd early on Saturday morning.
The final episode of the long-running series was broadcast last Thursday.
Parker, who had been with the show since the age of 15, also appeared in Casualty and in Radio 4 dramas. She was described as "immensely talented".
South Wales Police said Parker's body was found by a passer-by at around 0600 BST on Saturday.
Her agent Mark Jermin said: "Our thoughts are with the family and it is really sad. She was a great talent and we are really shocked." |
