General Hospital Spoilers: Tamara Braun OUT at GH? Kim Nero Leaving Port Charles?

General Hospital Spoilers: Tamara Braun OUT at GH? Kim Nero Leaving Port Charles?General Hospital (GH) spoilers have some news to pass on about a possible departure from the show. Daytime Confidential is reporting that Tamara Braun, who portrays Dr. Kim Nero on the ABC soap, may have left the show.

Sources have told Daytime Confidential that Tamara has finished taping at General Hospital and that for the time being, the role will not be recast. Tamara has portrayed Dr. Kim Nero on GH since 2017, and she previously portrayed Carly Corinthos from 2001-2005 and again in 2014.

Kim Nero’s Major Storylines

Kim was involved in a major storyline this past year, as her teenaged son Oscar Nero Quartermaine (Garren Stitt) had terminal brain cancer. Kim and Oscar’s father Drew Cain (Billy Miller) wanted Oscar to receive experimental treatment to try to prolong his life, but Oscar did not want the treatment. That led to a near legal battle where Oscar attempted to emancipate from his parents. He finally succumbed to cancer this past summer.

Kim has been really struggling emotionally since Oscar’s death. She’s never gotten used to the idea of not having a child to care for, and this led her to try to have another baby very soon after Oscar’s death. She asked Julian Jerome (William deVry) to father her child, then nearly got Drew to father her child when she drugged him one evening aboard The Haunted Star. After the Drew incident, she sought therapy to help her with her grief.

Now, Kim is embroiled in a huge and precedent-setting legal case involving what constitutes a person’s identity. She is supporting Franco Baldwin (Roger Howarth), who has Drew’s pre-2012 memories and who she considers to be Drew. She and Franco (as Drew) recently rekindled their romance and she ended her relationship with Julian.

Of course, on the other side of the debate (and the case) is Franco’s wife, Elizabeth Baldwin (Rebecca Herbst) and his father Scott Baldwin (Kin Shriner). They believe that Franco is still Franco and that his personality and memories are still lodged somewhere in his brain. They feel that he should receive a “memory reversal” procedure to try to rid him of Drew’s memories and bring their beloved Franco back.

Does Tamara Braun’s Departure Indicate How Future Storylines Will Play Out?

If indeed Tamara Braun is on her way out at General Hospital, she’ll have a big storyline to go out on, as the drama over Franco/Drew will be heating up very soon. Could her departure be an indication of how the case will play out, perhaps with Elizabeth and Scott winning the battle and getting the memory reversal procedure done on Franco?

Time will tell, but since the Daytime Confidential report indicates that Tamara will not be replaced in the role, that suggests that Kim’s storylines could wrap up and that Franco may soon no longer consider himself to be “Drew.” GH spoilers don’t readily indicate how that storyline will play out, but if Tamara is soon out at the show, then the romantic interest for Franco/Drew will be gone.

So far, there have been no official reports about Tamara’s possible exit. We’ll definitely keep you informed as more information becomes available.

As always, more detailed spoilers and a full collection of pictures for the week in question will appear here on Soap Opera Spy, where there will be more clues and hints over exactly what’s going on.

    Good for her

    Tamara is a very talented actress and I enjoy watching her. That said, Kim has absolutely no purpose now. They’ve ruined her character. Her son is gone, Drew is gone, Julian is gone and after Franco gets his memories back, she will slip slowly into insanity. … Poor Tamara/Kim. She never stood a chance.

    Agreed. Kim’s whole story was lost when Garren decided to go back to the Disney Channel and Drew was lost of who knows where or even if he is still alive. Therefore, there is no real need for the character especially since she has gone bonkers she wouldn’t even make a good doctor.

  6. Guest says

    The character is ruined. Franco might have Drew’s memories but he doesn’t look like him and like Liz said , he might not know who he really is but Kim does and seems like she should remember that she almost raped Drew and since Franco wouldn’t knowingly cheat on Liz, that’s tantamount to what she’s done to him in his present state of mind. I’m hoping the writers don’t make her pregnant unless she’s leaving, never to return.

    In his interview with Michael Fairman, Garren said he had no idea Oscar was dying until he got the script. Also his other show was cancel so the writers wrote him out, it was not his choice.I

    Apparently we read and/or heard different reports on Garren’s departure from GH, but it really doesn’t matter the reason, he’s gone and I wish him well.

  11. lbc says

    As Yogi would say – and you too BOO BOO!!!

    What a damn mess GH did to Kim’s character. Tamara Braun is beyond talented and they destroyed her character and storyline. Shame on GH. First Billy Miller got screwed over when he is known as one of the best actors on daytime. Emmys to prove that and now you destroy an absolutely incredible actress by making her crazy. GH your ratings are all the way down, don’t you see what you are doing? Get serious already.

  13. Guest says
