The post received lots of congratulatory messages from fans as well as co-stars. Adam Woodward, who played Brody Hudson on Hollyoaks, wrote: "No way!! Congrats bro."
Kerr played PC George Kiss in Hollyoaks between 2020 and 2021 before his character was murdered. Due to George's abusive behaviour, there were numerous suspects, but it was later revealed that Sally St Claire had been the one to end his life.
After leaving Hollyoaks, Kerr became a regular on the Nashville country music scene and released his first single, titled 'Tequila Therapy', in March.
He also performed on the soundtrack of the hit show Monarch, in which he starred as Wade Stellings alongside Susan Sarandon, Anna Friel and Beth Ditto.

"I'm going to continue to act. I've always done music as well, so I'll continue acting, doing music and trying to stay creative," he said.
