Kelly Thiebaud On Return To General Hospital & Why She Left Soap Opera
During a conversation with TV Insider, Kelly shared how grateful she is that she got the chance to step away from the daytime drama and still find her way back. “I admire the people who’ve been on for 10-plus years and have stayed there, and they’ve really built something with their lives on and off the show. I think that’s really amazing to be able to do that,” she explained.

“It felt like there was a lot of unfinished business there. It just felt like this was a really good time, and that this door was being opened to me for a specific reason, and I felt extremely grateful for even the opportunity of them considering bringing me back,” Kelly explained how things aligned.
She also divulged how rusty she felt on her return and how nervous she is to see her first couple of episodes back. But Kelly also missed the hustle and bustle of daytime. “I missed the consistency of acting. I missed getting to be creative and play and do weird and exciting things in storytelling.”
Kelly thanked fans for the support they shared ever since the news of her return came out. “It feels really good, and it’s just more of a confirmation that I’m supposed to be here right now. I’m supposed to be back on the show. There’s a lot of story to be told,” the 42 year old further expressed.

She wants to have a really good time on the show and is very excited to be back. “Because to have a job like this, where you can keep stepping in and out of, doesn’t happen all the time. And I feel extremely lucky,” Kelly signed things off. Stay tuned to see her back onscreen in the coming episodes.
