Answering questions during a live Instagram Q&A, Kemp reads out a comment by a fan, who writes: "I feel like Rolla should have never died that fast."

RSK gang leader Rolla, played by Darrell Britt-Gibson, was killed off in the first of Power's six seasons.

He was murdered by criminal boss and his mentor James 'Ghost' St Patrick (Omari Hardwick), after fellow drug boss Tommy Egan (Joseph Sikora) convinced Ghost he was a snitch.

On Rolla's death, Kemp told fans: "Don't know what to say to you. But Ghost made a mistake.

She added: "If you go back and watch it, Ghost made a mistake."

Later on in the series, which airs on the Starz network, Ghost finds out that Rolla was in fact innocent.

And on whether she regretted killing off any of Power's biggest character, including Ghost - who is shot by his son Tariq - she said adamantly: "No, not at all."
