The Real Reason Kelly Thiebaud Is Leaving Britt And General Hospital Behind

Kelly Thiebaud enjoyed her time on "General Hospital" so much, she even dated former co-star Bryan Craig. Thiebaud — who won an Emmy for Best Supporting Actress on "GH" — played the character Eva Vasquez on ABC's "Grey's Anatomy" spin-off "Station 19" in 2020. As Deadline tells it, she is returning to that role for the show's sixth season and is reported to be leaving "GH" in November.

She posted this news on Instagram saying, "Excited to be back on @station19 stirring up trouble!" Her post received tons of accolades from fans and co-workers alike. Her on-screen mother Kathleen Gati stated, "Proud of you and very, very happy for you! Though Mutter will miss her Britta for however long she's gone!" Even Avery Pohl who plays the vicious and sinister Esme Prince on "GH" wrote, "Ahhhh CONGRATULATIONS!!!"

Michael Fairman TV reported that Kelly's "Station 19" character Eva has caused considerable trouble on the show, most notably when she had a fling with Jack Gibson (Grey Damon) who was a friend and co-worker of her late husband, Rigo Vasquez (Rigo Sanchez). The site goes on to say that the ABC promo for Season 6 teases Thiebaud's return will include secrets from Ava's history.

Soap Hub speculates that Britt will not be completely off the "GH" canvas as both shows film on the same lot in Hollywood.
