Kelly Monaco<\/a>\u2018s time on General Hospital<\/em><\/a> has formally come to an finish, because the cleaning soap star taped her final episode on Friday, September 27.<\/p>\n The information was revealed by Kelly\u2019s mother, Carmina Monaco, who took to her Instagram web page on Friday to thank the followers for all their assist. Since it was introduced that Monaco was leaving the cleaning soap again in August, her followers have been campaigning for the GH<\/em> producers to alter their determination.<\/p>\n \u201cI want to take this moment to reach out to Kelly\u2019s incredible fans and express my deepest gratitude for the unwavering love, loyalty, and support you\u2019ve shown her throughout her time on General Hospital<\/em>,\u201d Carmina wrote.<\/p>\n \u201cOn this final day, just four days shy of the anniversary of her first episode on October 1, 2003, Kelly will close the door of her dressing room for the last time,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n Monaco has performed Sam McCall on the long-running cleaning soap opera since 2003, having filmed greater than 2,200 episodes. She acquired two Daytime Emmy nominations for her work on the present.<\/p>\n \u201cThis moment is a difficult one, but knowing that she has had such an incredible, devoted fan base has given her strength,\u201d Carmina continued. \u201cYou\u2019ve stood by her through every twist and turn, celebrating her achievements and providing comfort in the hard times. Your love and dedication have meant more than words can express, not only to Kelly but to all of us who care so deeply for her.\u201d<\/p>\n She concluded, \u201cThank you for being there, for believing in her, and for reminding her of the impact she\u2019s made. We will always be grateful for you standing with her through it all.\u201d<\/p>\n In August, followers arrange a Change.org petition<\/a> titled \u201cRetain Kelly Monaco in the Cast of General Hospital,\u201d which now has over 16,000 signatures. Then, earlier this month, her followers took the #IStandWithKelly marketing campaign on to the present\u2019s studios<\/a>, driving a billboard truck round ABC\u2019s Prospect Park studios.<\/p>\n Despite the passionate marketing campaign, ABC has not reversed its determination, and Kelly\u2019s closing episode is ready to air this fall.<\/p>\n Following Carmina\u2019s submit, Kelly\u2019s followers jumped into the feedback to share their reactions.<\/p>\n \u201cI am shocked they have done this to her. She is such a vital part of the show,\u201d wrote one commenter.<\/p>\n Another added, \u201cI have watched GH for over 46 years and no character have I ever gravitated to like Sam. She had me girl fanning her from day 1. My loyalty and viewing ends with kelly_m23 last scene.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cNo more GH for me I stand with Kelly,\u201d mentioned one other.<\/p>\n \u201cWe will always continue to love and support our girl!! She deserves nothing but the best! And I\u2019m sure she will have that!\u201d one other wrote.<\/p>\n Another added, \u201cThis is so sad!! I\u2019ve meet Kelly a couple of times and she was so sweet and nice. I can\u2019t believe she won\u2019t be on GH anymore, she will truly be missed but I\u2019m sure she will do wonderful in her next endeavor.\u201d<\/p>\n General Hospital<\/em>, Weekdays, ABC<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/blockquote>\n
