The actress had said it had been a "dream job" which made it a "difficult decision to leave".
She added: "Eva has been such fun to play over the last seven years, and who knows, one day she might storm the cobbles of Weatherfield again. In the meantime I'm excited about the future, new acting projects, and spending time with my family."
Tyldesley joined Coronation Street in 2011 and left briefly in 2015 to go on maternity leave.
