Kelly Monaco's General Hospital Costar Shares Message After Her Exit

As an ardent fan of Kelly Monaco and her unforgettable portrayal of Sam McCall in General Hospital, I can’t help but feel a profound sense of nostalgia tinged with anticipation upon reading this heartwarming account of their friendship. The bond that has been forged between these two talented actors over the years is truly inspiring and serves as a reminder that even when characters part ways on our screens, the friendships they leave behind often endure.


The city of Port Charles said goodbye to one of its beloved characters—but not to Kelly Monaco.

Despite Kelly’s character Sam McCall being written off on the Nov. 1 episode of “General Hospital” (21 years after her debut), her close friend and costar Dominic Zamprogna, who played her love interest, has maintained contact with the actress.

He mentioned during an interview with Soap Opera Digest (published Nov. 6) that he continues to reach out to her weekly. He also revealed some advice he’s shared with her, stating, ‘I’ve discovered that the most valuable things in my life have come when it seems like a door is shutting. I was trying to make sure she understood this as well.’

He’s hopeful too that she might come back someday, jokingly commenting, “You never know with a soap opera; anything can happen!

It’s clear that Dominic had a strong bond with Kelly, as they spent many years together, even though ABC has yet to comment on why Kelly left.

He went on to say, “On our crew, everyone feels more like family than just colleagues, and your fellow cast members are no exception. Spending three and a half years together on the show was an incredibly significant period in both my personal life and that of my character. During this time, I came to understand Kelly in a way I hadn’t before.

Previously departed from the show in 2017 and subsequently rejoining in 2020, Dominic later commended his enduring co-star. He remarked that despite Kelly’s tough Philadelphia persona, she actually embodies a softer side.

He mentioned that she’s an exceptional individual. She’s strong-willed and has numerous commendable qualities, and it’s been enjoyable getting to know her as a friend. That friendship won’t fade away.

Dominic mentioned, ‘I’ve experienced similar intense emotions with her.’ We ended up sharing deeply personal aspects of ourselves and offering support during unexpectedly emotional moments. Despite her strong, confident demeanor, she has a way of making me feel comfortable enough to share things I wouldn’t have imagined sharing with her.
