'Shameless': After Emmy Rossum, Cameron Monaghan says goodbye to Gallaghers

Emmy Rossum, the woman who brought Fiona to life on 'Shameless' is on her way out and now her bipolar TV brother Ian, portrayed by Cameron Monaghan, is following suit

Showtime's 'Shameless' has portrayed by the best white trash American family for nine seasons now, but all that is going to change soon. It’s not an overstatement to say that it’s not a great time for you if you are a fan of Gallaghers.  

Earlier this year, we learned that Emmy Rossum, the woman who brought Fiona to life, is on her way out. Now, her bipolar TV brother Ian, portrayed by Cameron Monaghan, is following suit. Monaghan officially made the announcement on Instagram on Monday, October 8 along with a series of photos with castmates.  

Monaghan’s career is at an all-time high, complete with a recurring role as ‘Gotham’ villain Joker, movie ‘Anthem of A Teenage Prophet’ in which he worked with his girlfriend Peyton List and Lea Thompson’s directorial debut ‘The Year of Spectacular Men.’ It makes sense that he wants to explore other avenues.
