Kelly Monaco Reunites With Greg Vaughan
AMP in the post
Kelly, who was best known for her role as Sam McCall in Port Charles, recently shared that she’s going to do a meet-and-greet with Days of Our Lives star Greg Vaughan in New Jersey this December.
It’s a special “Reunited Beyond Port Charles” event that will definitely give soap fans a chance to catch up with two familiar daytime television faces and perhaps hear some good gossip!
And while no one knows just yet what this might mean for Kelly and her future, the actress recently revealed that she’s been six months sober, and yes, that is definitely a huge milestone.
As previously reported, Kelly Monaco celebrated her six-month sobriety milestone with a personal message that brought supportive reactions from fans and former co-stars.
Kelly Monaco’s Recent Social Media Activity

That said, Kelly had been relatively quiet and hadn’t posted much on social media over the past year.
But in just one week, she posted about her sobriety, her mother’s birthday, the third anniversary of Billy Miller’s death, and so much more.
Her renewed activity has certainly caught the attention of longtime fans, especially those who have been wondering what she might do next.
In fact, Kelly Monaco’s recent social media posts sparked speculation about a possible daytime comeback, although the actress has not confirmed any new acting role.
Could Kelly Monaco Return To Port Charles?
So, could this mean that Kelly might be looking to get back to work and, better yet, back to Port Charles?
Maybe. It’s been nearly two years since she was last seen on the canvas, and there’s no doubt that her fans certainly miss seeing Kelly in action.
At the same time, some critics have questioned whether her departure from the ABC soap might have complicated her chances of returning to daytime television.
There was speculation suggesting that she was going to join the cast of Beyond the Gates, but that never happened.
And while The Young and the Restless, The Bold and the Beautiful, and even Days of Our Lives could potentially find a role for an actress with her experience, she hasn’t announced a part on any of those shows, either.
Meanwhile, Kelly Monaco’s latest public appearances have renewed speculation about her acting future, with fans continuing to debate whether she should return as Sam McCall or take on an entirely new character.
So far, Kelly Monaco herself has not made any additional comments confirming a return to daytime television.
Annemarie’s Take
I’m happy to see Kelly Monaco getting back out there and reconnecting with fans. She spent more than two decades playing Sam McCall, and I still think General Hospital made a mistake letting her go!
Her sobriety milestone is something worth celebrating, and I hope she’s enjoying this new chapter in her life.
As for a comeback, wouldn’t it be something if another soap snapped her up? I would love to see Kelly back on my television screen, but I’d especially love to see the reaction if she suddenly walked back into Port Charles. After all, this is a soap opera, and being dead has never stopped anyone before! LOL!
Do you think Kelly Monaco should return as Sam McCall, or would you rather see her join another daytime drama in a completely new role?
