The Good Doctor Spoilers – Antonia Thomas’ Exit
The Good Doctor spoilers reveal that Claire has been part of the ABC medical drama since the beginning. The show started airing on the network in 2017 and since then, fans have had characters that they love and others they hate. Claire was one of the favorites. So, it was sad news when ahead of the season 4 finale, it was confirmed Thomas was leaving the show.
The Good Doctor Spoilers – Statement Issued
In June 2021, Thomas issued a statement to Deadline about her leaving the show. The actress said at the time,
“I think, ultimately, for me, it’s about coming to the point where I think we’ve really run the gamut of different things that Claire can have gone through. I’m now really excited to explore different creative opportunities.”

However, Thomas said that she was open to coming back every once in a while.
“Really for me, if there was more time in the year to be able to shoot the show and to be able to go off and do some of the other things that I’m wanting to explore now, I’d do both. It has not been an easy decision for me to leave, so I absolutely would love to come back every now and then and say hi… I’m very much looking forward to that.”
Executive producer David Shore explained that he would love to find a way to bring her back. The showrunner told TV Line that Claire is a big part of the Good Doctor world and always will be. Shore added that it would be great to see Claire bring a new story to fans or just to be featured in the highlights of doctors’ and patients’ lives.
That time has come, folks! TV Line just confirmed that fans are going to see Claire in upcoming episodes of season 5.
