The former Disney Channel child star played the lead in two seasons of Disney-owned Freeform's romantic drama.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, that confirmed the show's cancellation, money was the main issue along with falling viewership and rumors of difficulties between Thorne and showrunner I. Marlene King.

Warner Horizon Scripted Television had wanted streaming service Hulu, that has the streaming video on demand rights to the series, to contribute a bigger chunk of the production budget.

Season two averaged 254,000 total viewers, down from 330,000 in its freshman run, the trade publication said.

Meanwhile, THR.com quoted several sources that said there had been clashes between Thorne and King 'with the actress exhibiting what sources described as 'diva-like behavior' on set.'

Sources also claimed Thorne had wanted to leave the show 'having refused to participate in Freeform-organized live-tweets during its second season.'

The Shake It Up alum has a heavy social media presence, posting snaps of herself in skimpy outfits and teasing her romantic relationships.

Thorne, who declared in 2016 that she is bisexual, has been dating rapper Mod Sun and also last week shared racy pics of herself with 19-year-old galpal Tana Mongaeu.
