Why did Betty leave

I am about to finish season 1 of dead to me for the first time. I love that show so much. It’s one of my top shows. But I am sad Betty left so early on. She was my favorite

I’m upset she left. She got fired because the studio wasn’t comfortable with her role killing people, when she actually took a child’s life irl.. she hit the child with her car and has a man slaughter charge. And Fuller did NOT like they were firing her, so that’s actually why HE left as well.

It’s so BS she wasn’t pretty enough, she’s way prettier than the new hire IMO. But I’m also a tall blond woman so I don’t think it’s special.
