The network has cited poor ratings for the demise of the crime drama - going from three million per episode during the first couple of seasons to just a million by the fourth.
It comes a year after the death of the show's beloved star Adan Canto, who died on January 8, 2024, at the age of 42 of appendiceal cancer.
The X-Men actor starred in 25 episodes of The Cleaning Lady before his death.
Adan made his final appearance on The Cleaning Lady on April 9 of last year, which showed his character, Arman Morales, being captured in a van after a botched drug deal.

Adan's family ended up finding him and the vehicle after a planned drop-off in the desert.
Thony was involved in a shootout with Arman's kidnappers, which ultimately led to the tragic end.
The car, which Arman was in, had flown over a cliff after he had moved the kidnapper's hand that was pointing a gun at Thony.
After seeing Thony's sad reaction, fans gathered that Arman and the others in the car had died in the crash.

The episode ended with a flashback to a scene between Arman and Thony kissing in Season 1.

Beautiful Croatian hilltop village that was used as a dupe for city of Nottingham in the Robin Hood movie
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) ON the beautiful Istria peninsula is a tiny cobbled village that has doubled as the UK city of Nottingham. An hour away from the Croatian city of Pula is the pretty village of Završje, it sits on a hilltop, has winding streets and stone houses with terracotta rooftops.

The village is tiny, with the last population consensus in 2021 revealing that just 39 people lived there. More people might have seen it than first thought though, as in 2018 it appeared in a blockbuster movie. Završje stood in for 12th century Nottingham in the Robin Hood film starring Taron Egerton, Jamie Foxx and Eve Hewson. The town's medieval look made it the ideal backdrop for the movie's scenes and were used for the end battle between Robin Hood and the Sheriff of Nottingham. Završje has its very own leaning tower - the church tower is 22 metres tall and leans about 40cm because of the unstable ground it was built on. Once you've had a walk around the tiny village, there's plenty more to do in Istria - the heart-shaped peninsula boasts incredible beaches, cities and historical sites. Its Ancient Roman buildings have led to many comparisons with Italy, and the city of Pula's Roman amphitheatre is the sixth largest in the world. It's also one of the best-preserved in the world with its outer walls and four side towers mostly intact. Tickets for entry to the Arena can be purchased at the main entrance - adults are €10 (£8.64) and students are €5 (£4.32). The sun-soaked Croatian island that's a secret a celeb hot spot 5 Pula's Roman amphitheatre is the sixth largest in the world Credit: Alamy 5 There are plenty of beautiful beaches on the peninsula Credit: Getty The best beaches on Tripadvisor in Istria include Fazana Beach, Cuvi Beach and Mulini Beach. One of the top attractions is the Punta Kamenjak National Park where you can go swimming and snorkelling. Essential spots to see include the Old Town, Baredine Cave, Port of Rovinj and Church of St Euphemia. Istria is also home to Croatia's largest waterpark Aquapark Porec Aquacolors. It boasts several huge waterslides, including the Freefall, a 48-metre long drop and Turbolance which features a steep drop, reverses and a splash pool, all while taking "crazy photos" of riders. However, there are also calmer rides for youngsters including family rafting slides. The park has a TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice Award due to the number of positive ratings it has received. One visitor wrote: "Awesome place, so much fun and adrenaline. Would come again, definitely! Make sure you arrive early because there is so many slides you will want to try." Another person added: "The children's area was amazing! Our kids loved it!" You can fly direct from the UK to Pula Airport in just over two hours. Flights are with easyJet and Ryanair and start from £31. Discover more on Croatia including its largest island which has hilltop towns, sandy beaches and it's own airport.

Rylan Clark says 'it's time to know the truth' after Tulisa's confession
Rylan Clark has paid tribute to Tulisa Contostavlos following the release of her tell-all memoir. Former X-Factor judge and N-Dubz star Tulisa, real name Tula Paulinea Contostavlos, released her memoir, Judgement: Love, Trials and Tribulations, this month. In the book, the I'm A Celebrity star, 37, opens up about the pain of having a sex tape leaked and being wrongly accused of drug dealing. She also reveals how she twice attempted to take her own life while standing trial for the drugs allegations. The case was dismissed from court in 2014, when prosecution witness and 'fake sheikh' journalist Mazher Mahmood was found to have tampered with evidence. Celebrity pal Rylan, 36, has paid tribute to Tulisa's journey, writing how 'it's time to know the truth' about his friend and fellow X-Factor star. Taking to Instagram, Rylan shared an image of himself with Tulisa, writing in the caption: 'Never been prouder @tulisacontostavlos.' He continued: 'From 2012 to now we've been through a lot and I'm so proud we stayed by each others side. Now it's time for everyone to know your truth. 'We've never publicised it, we've just been there for each other. I'm so happy your words will now be heard by everyone. Tulisa's book Judgement is out now x #Day1.' In the comments below Rylan's post, Tulisa wrote: 'Love you will [sic] all my heart you beautiful earth angel.' Tulisa first rose to fame as a member of hip-hop trio N-Dubz, alongside Dappy and Fazer. After releasing smash hits Number 1, I Need You and Playing With Fire, Tulisa served as a judge on X-Factor between 2011 and 2012. However, her career took a devastating turn when ex-boyfriend Justin Edwards allegedly released a seven-minute sex tape of her online. In the book, Tulisa has opened up about what she describes as her 'year from hell.' 'When the sex tape had come out, I had slept on the bathroom floor for five days,' Tulisa wrote. Revenge porn, at the time, was not illegal, and all Tulisa received from ex-boyfriend Justin Edwards was 'sincere apologies,' via London's High Court. After the case was closed, Tulisa said: 'I am relieved that this is finally over. It has been a very testing few months and this was not a case I ever wanted to go through. 'I stand here today a stronger, wiser young woman who has taken this experience and learnt from it. I am disgusted by Justin and saddened by the people that believed I released the footage myself.' Her lawyer made clear this was 'not the case' and called the ordeal 'the most severe invasion of privacy imaginable'. During her trial the following year – in which she was accused of supplying Class A drugs – Tulisa was found unconscious in the bathroom. More Trending 'What's the point in being alive just to be miserable?' she wrote. 'How am I ever going to find happiness after this? Even if I'm found innocent, I'll be empty inside by the time I get to the end of it, and my life will be ruined.' She was revived but, months later, attempted to take her own life for a second time. She was arrested after an elaborate sting operation and denied the charges. View More » The case collapsed after the judge believed the prosecution's witness to have lied in court.
