Valleywood has been dealt a knock-out blow after MTV pulled the plug on its reality TV show The Valleys after three wild booze-fuelled seasons.
Natalee Harris (pic below) contacted the Clucker on Twitter to open up about her feelings towards MTV's decision.
She tweeted: "Nothing lasts forever." She added that she and her fellow cast members didn't expect the show to keep going with them still taking part in the show's booze-fuelled partying antics into their thirties.
Natalee told the Clucker that she was planning to leave her showbiz life in Wales behind to emigrate to New Zealand or Australia and settle down to start a family.
She tweeted: "Off to college and uni to do nursing then emigrating to New Zealand or Oz.....Babies and mortgage."
Meanwhile Jenna Jonathan, Lateysha Grace, Nicole Morris, Carley Belmonte, Darren Chidgey, Jack Watkins, and Jason Suminski have been busy going about their daily business without making any public statement so far about MTV's decision to axe the show.
However, The Weekly Clucker did manage to contact Jason's twin brother and ex-cast member Anthony Suminski from Pontypridd, who left the show in episode 2 of series 3.
He told the Clucker on Twitter that his time on The Valleys was "over for me long time ago!"
When The Clucker asked Anthony about whether he had heard any news from other cast members about the future of the show, he replied: "Only speak to Jack, Liam, Jason and Nat. Least of my worries tbh. My future does not involve The Valleys."

The Valleys, which first aired on 25 September 2012, peaked at 682,000 viewers in episodes five and six of series one but viewing figures declined in series three, slumping to an all-time low of 424,000 viewers.
The success of MTV's smash hit Ex On The Beach and the continuing popularity of Geordie Shore appear to have spelled the end for The Valleys.
MTV UK released a statement, saying: "The Valleys has performed exceptionally well with three successful seasons behind it.
"However with our audience always looking for new and engaging talent, we're focused on developing new original programme ideas for the MTV schedule such as new smash hit Ex On The Beach to sit alongside returning favourites like Geordie Shore."
So what does the future hold for the cast now?
Jenna, 23, from Tonyrefail, has successfully secured her future on our TV screens by signing up for Welsh Language reality TV show Cariad@Iaith which will air on S4C at 8.25pm on Wednesday 11 June.
Jenna told her followers on Twitter: "Attempting to pack for @S4cariad and I'm surrounded in mountains of clothes...where do I start?!"
Meanwhile, Lateysha has been attempting to re-launch herself as a pop-star by teaming up with US rapper D-Jukes to release a single called "You Beautiful" and a music video (watch below), which ironically premiered on MTV UK.
Lateysha, who is currently soaking up the sun in Ibiza, retweeted a cryptic message from a Twitter user called The Illuminati, that read: "Keep the faith, keep working hard, and great things will come."
