General Hospital fans are still reeling over the news that Kelly Monaco was let go. She’s played Sam McCall for over two decades. The actress previously hinted that she would share the full story of her departure. Keep reading to see the shocking detail she dropped about the decision to fire her.

Kelly Monaco Reveals Shocking Detail About Firing

News spread on social media like wildfire in August that Kelly Monaco was leaving General Hospital. She was reportedly let go for over 20 years playing Sam McCall. The actress stayed mum on the news until September, when she honored her late co-star, Billy Miller, in a social media post. The post has since been deleted. Possibly because she allegedly threatened to expose the true details behind Billy Miller’s departure from the soap opera.

She further addressed her departure in October when she claimed her firing was “retaliation,” though she didn’t give further details. The actress filmed her final scenes on GH in late September.

Fans pulled out all the stops to get the soap to change course and rehire Kelly Monaco. But the billboards, petitions and social media campaigns didn’t work. Kelly Monaco is leaving General Hospital, but not on her own accord.

She clapped back at a viewer who claimed on social media that she was fired because she refused to take a pay cut. The actress denied that was the reason. She replied. “I took the cut. That’s all I’ll say in this moment.”

Kelly Monaco’s Last GH Scene Already Aired?

How exactly Kelly Monaco’s Sam McCall leaves Port Charles is under wraps. However, the character recently matched for a liver donation to comatose Lulu Spencer. Many viewers think Sam will die after donating her liver to save Lucky’s sister.

Sam McCall had a tense interaction with her sisters Molly and Kristina during Friday’s show. Fans took to Twitter to express concern that the scene was Kelly Monaco’s last on the show. The actress previously posted a photo from the set with Kristen Vaganos (Molly) and Kate Mansi (Kristina) with the caption that it was the last scene with the Davis girls.

The post has since been deleted. Was that Kelly Monaco’s last scene on GH? The show hasn’t confirmed her last airdate, but another photo from an episode next week features Sam and her mother, Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn.)

So, no, the argument between Sam, Kristina, and Molly wasn’t her last scene, but rather, the last scene with the actresses who play Sam’s sisters.

If Kelly Monaco took the pay cut like she says, why do you think the soap fired her? Sound off in the comments.
