For 21 years, Kelly Monaco played Sam McCall on “General Hospital.”

However, another soap opera star isn’t convinced that this is truly goodbye for Monaco and Sam.

Brandon Beemer played Shawn-Douglas Brady on “Days of Our Lives” from 2006 through 2023.

After being booted from the show, he was brought back in 2024 to play Shawn-Douglas again.

In a November 2024 interview withUs Weekly, Beemer discussed the revolving door of soap star roles.

“I don’t think she’s really fully leaving.

I mean, who knows?”

Beemer then mentioned how actor Steve Burton unexpectedly returned to the soap world with roles on three different shows.

You’re gonna be unemployed for maybe a year.'

You’ll end up coming back, otherwise another soap is gonna pick [Monaco] up."

What has Monaco said so far about the situation?

The late Billy Miller previously portrayed Drew and Jason Morgan on “General Hospital.”

She wrote (viaSoap Hub), “When Billy Miller was fired, Sam’s storyline stopped.

Stripping Sam of every characteristic she had.

Slowly dismantling her, into a character that I did not recognize, let alone the audience.

I will give a proper statement.

The truth will set you free.”

According toEntertainment Weekly, the caption included the quote “still doesn’t make any sense to me.”
