Kate Mansi to Exit ‘General Hospital’ After Three Years

Actor Kate Mansi is bowing out of “General Hospital” after three years in the role of Kristina Corinthos Davis.

It’s understood that Mansi’s final episodes will air in June.

News of Mansi’s departure was first reported Sunday by Soap Opera Network and confirmed by soap journalist Stephanie Sloane with comments from with Mansi and “General Hospital” executive producer and showrunner Frank Valentini.

Mansi joined “General Hospital” in 2023 after a nine-year run on NBC’s “Days of Our Lives.” On “General Hospital,” she stepped into a role that had previously been played by Lexie Answorth.

Mansi was nominated for a Daytime Emmy Award last year for her work on “General Hospital.” She won a Daytime Emmy in 2017 for playing Abigail Deveraux on “Days of Our Lives.” She has directed two episodes of “General Hospital” during her time on the show.

Mansi told Sloane that it was her decision to leave the show at the end of her current contract. She described her time on “General Hospital” as having “been such a meaningful and unforgettable ride. I’ve loved being a fiery Corinthos-Davis girl in such a phenomenal family.”

In a statement, Valentini asserted, “We love Kate and support her decision to leave” and suggested that she would be welcome back. “The door is always open and we appreciate all that she has added to the show these past three years,” he said.

Mansi’s other credits include the Amazon/Freevee drama series “Casa Grande,” which aired in 2023, and was followed by a “Casa Grande” film that debuted earlier this month on Prime Video. She toplined the 2019 NBC miniseries “Days of Our Lives: Chad and Abby in Paris.” Mansi also starred in the 2020 indie feature “Legend of the Muse.”
