When actors exit General Hospital, fans want to know why. Today, we look at five major character exits — some with replacement actors coming in to replace them — and some whose characters will not return to GH.

What’s the Real Reason that Luke Spencer & Lucky Spencer Left General Hospital?

In the video below, two that we look at that exited are father-son duo Lucas Lorenzo Spencer (Luke Spencer) and his namesake son, Lucas Jr (aka Lucky Spencer).

It was Anthony Geary in the role of Luke and Jonathan Jackson in the role of Lucky when they left General Hospital. See why they each left in this special video presentation.

It’s been a while since Geary left and he shows no signs of returning to the ABC sudser. And the same goes for his soap son, Jon Jackson who’s busy with other projects after exiting the daytime drama.

Why Did Lexi Ainsworth & Marcus Coloma Exit GH?

Two other giant exits in the last year are Lexi Ainsworth as Kristina Corinthos and Marcus Coloma as Nikolas Cassadine. Here’s the scoop on why these two left General Hospital.

Finally, this special Soap Dirt GH video examines the tragic and sudden death of Jacklyn Zeman. She played Bobbie Spencer since 1976 and her character death has yet to unfold on the CBS soap opera.

Fans are wondering when they’ll see a tribute to the legendary character of Bobbie Spencer on General Hospital. And when will they do an episode explaining her passing and honoring the late actress? We’ve got an update.

Already, we saw Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) now owns Kelly’s Diner. But the actress was quick to reveal this storyline twist was planned before her soap opera mom passed away in real life.
