The new year has brought shocking General Hospital news and a fan favorite actor has revealed his departure from the daytime drama.
General Hospital comings and goings reports indicate Kin Shriner has ended his run on ABC’s General Hospital. As a vet actor, GH fans have come to know Shriner as Scotty for decades. Becoming a household name icon, Scotty Baldwin has made quite an impact in Port Charles.
General Hospital spoilers reveal Kin has taken to Instagram to make his announcement. He thanks fans for all the mentions and reveals he will be heading to Florida for some Vespa riding.
Clearly, fans are disappointed as they have come to adore Scotty and Liesl‘a romance, and all the love he has to give for Liesl, her daughter Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud), Elizabeth Webber (Rebecca Herbst), and all those who are dear to his heart.
Shriner took on the role of Scotty Baldwin in 1977 and has been the face of the quirky lawyer ever since. His close connections with Luke (Anthony Geary) and Laura Spencer (Genie Francis) have helped build Scotty’s reputation throughout the years. Kin and Scotty will be dearly missed.
