General Hospital Spoilers: Kelly Monaco’s Mom Solves Sam Recast Mystery – Carmina Monaco Reveals Daughter’s 14-Day Quarantine and Why

General Hospital (GH) spoilers reveal that a temporary Kelly Monaco (Sam McCall) recast shocker caused concern among plenty of fans. When Daytime Confidential shared the news that Sam McCall (Kelly Monaco) would be recast for a couple weeks, it led to speculation and fears about Kelly’s health.

Lindsay Hartley will be filling in while Kelly’s out of the picture, but it turns out there’s no need for alarm. On Twitter, Kelly’s mom offered an update on the situation and assured everyone that her daughter’s doing just fine. Let’s look at some of Carmina Monaco’s tweets and talk about what went down.

“Kelly is safe and healthy,” Carmina confirmed. “First day back she had a hard time with the Covid mask and was given a rather unexpected 14 day quarantine even though she tested negative twice for Covid and a third negative test for Covid antibodies. She is excited to get back on set next week.”

In another tweet, Carmina insisted Kelly’s “better than great” and is expected to return to set on Monday, August 3. Kelly had a breathing problem due to her mask, so that made things difficult. Carmina pointed out that Kelly’s been claustrophobic ever since she was a little girl, so that was a factor here.

Thankfully, Kelly’s in good health and will indeed get back to work soon. In the meantime, Kelly’s mom expressed gratitude for the kind messages wishing Kelly well and hoping for the best. It’s a relief to know there’s not a major issue here to worry about. “Thank you for all the love,” Carmina said.

Due to that 14-day quarantine Carmina mentioned, Kelly wasn’t able to film as planned. Since they already had scenes scheduled for Sam and couldn’t wait, Lindsay Hartley was tapped to film instead.

The show must go on! General Hospital has been working hard to get new episodes to fans as soon as possible, so bringing in a temporary replacement was the right call under the circumstances.

Lindsay should be a fantastic temp recast, but many fans feel like you can’t beat the real thing! Kelly’s spot will be waiting for her at the end of her quarantine, so you can expect scenes with her version of Sam again soon. We’ll keep you posted as other GH news and updates emerge.
