‘General Hospital’ Kelly Monaco Out As Sam McCall
Longtime General Hospital star Kelly Monaco is out as Sam McCall. The actress and model has been on the hit ABC soap opera for twenty-one years. Now, she is saying goodbye but when will her time come and how much longer does she have in Port Charles? Keep reading for more details.
General Hospital Kelly Monaco Out As Sam McCall
Kelly Monaco came to General Hospital in 2003 and caused quite a stir. As it turned out, her character of Samantha McCall was actually the biological daughter of Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn). It took them some time to finally come to terms with their relationship. They faced a major challenge when Alexis’ daughter needed stem cells. At the time, Sam was pregnant with Sonny Corinthos’ (Maurice Benard) baby. Therefore, they wanted to induce Sam for the cells since Kristina is also Sonny’s daughter, something he did not know. Sam refused but ended up collapsing and her baby was stillborn but it afforded Kristina the stem cells she desperately needed.
However, Sam did grow close to her siblings and her mother, though it has always been a struggle. Especially since Sam has always had a love for Jason Morgan (Steve Burton). When it was revealed that Jason was returning in 2024, Sam and Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) were a part of the shocking promo. Sadly, Sam and Kelly’s time has come to an end, according to Soap Opera News. It appears that the character will be killed off though it is unclear why.
Per an insider, Kelly Monaco’s time will come to an end in the fall of 2024:
“According to sources, the Sam McCall character is being killed off and will last appear in Port Charles this fall. Sources also say that Monaco was “blindsided” upon learning of the decision.”
Originally, Kelly started out on Port Charles, which was a primetime spinoff of General Hospital. Then, she moved over to the daytime soap. She also won Season 1 of DWTS which was a huge accomplishment. Now, her time is ending and it she has no idea why which will undoubtedly leave fans frustrated and confused.
