Kelly Monaco Describes Her ‘General Hospital’ Exit as Illogical
Veteran actress says her departure still ‘doesn’t make any sense’ after 21 years
Kelly Monaco, who portrayed Sam McCall on General Hospital for over two decades, has said her departure from the show “still doesn’t make any sense” after wrapping her final scenes in September 2024.
She expressed frustration on social media over what she described as the systematic dismantling of her character’s core traits and storyline following the firing of co‑star Billy Miller, calling the exit “retaliation.” She and her mother also thanked fans for their unwavering support during a tumultuous transition.
