Marsh 'may quit for Hollywood'

KYM Marsh is considering quitting the show to make a fresh start in the US, according to a report. The actress, who plays Michelle Connor on the ITV1 soap, is said to be making plans for her long-term future following the sad loss of her premature baby Archie last month.
