Kelly Monaco is set to leave “General Hospital” after more than two decades on the ABC soap opera, Variety has confirmed.
Monaco, who has played the role of Sam McCall on “General Hospital” since 2003, will make her final appearance in Port Charles this fall due to storyline.
Monaco joined “General Hospital” in 2003 after working on another ABC soap opera, “Port Charles.” She played Livvie Locke on the “General Hospital” spinoff series from 2000 to 2003.
Monaco has shot more than 2,200 episodes of “General Hospital,” and in 2006, she received a Daytime Emmy nomination for her performance as Sam. In August 2020, Lindsay Hartley temporarily played the role of Sam while Monaco was out on temporary leave. Hartley reappeared as the character in February 2020, as well as January and August of this year.
