Kelly Thiebaud Leaving GH

Back in early November, it was confirmed that Kelly Thiebaud will be off of her contract with ABC’s General Hospital. The actress has gone from contract to recurring status with the 51 year old daytime drama. More recently, there has been rumors that Kelly’s character, Dr. Britt Westbourne will be leaving the canvas altogether.

From the looks of the onscreen evidence, it seems to be that the General Hospital rumors regarding Britt’s departure from Port Charles is actually true. Britt is leaving town with her father, Cesar Faison, after Nikolas found out about her scheme with Spencer to get back into Nikolas’ heart. Helena was helping Dr. Obrecht and Faison out of town, and Obrecht was bringing Britta along with her. But when Nathan got shot, Dr. O decided to stay to keep watch over her precious son.

GH’s Kelly Thiebaud (Dr. Britt Westbourne) Jumping Ship! Find Out Where She is Headed

There have definitely been some major shake ups this year when it comes to General Hospital ins and outs. A few months back it seemed like the actors from General Hospital and the Young and the Restless were bouncing back and forth from each of those two daytime dramas. Y&R gained General Hospital’s Steve Burton (Jason Morgan) and Tristan Rogers (Robert Scorpio, Colin Atkinson), while General Hospital gained Y&R’s Billy Miller (Billy Abbott, Jason Morgan), Michelle Stafford (Phylllis Newman, Nina Clay), and Maura West (Diane Jenkins, Ava Jerome), and more.

In more recent casting news, it has been confirmed that General Hospital’s Kelly Thiebaud (Dr. Britt Westbourne, aka The Britch) has been bumped from her contract with General Hospital to a recurring status. The newest piece of information that has caught wind by the soap opera social media is that Kelly Thiebaud is on her way to The Bold and the Beautiful. In a report from Soaps in Depth, there has been a General Hospital rumor floating around that B&B has made Kelly Thiebaud an offer she just cannot turn down. It has been rumored that Kelly will be joining the cast of The Bold and the Beautiful as Steffy Forrester.

A source at CBS denies this claim, leaving this rumor just as it is, a rumor. However, looking back on Billy Miller and the Jason Morgan saga, there was a siginificant amount of back and forth, even to the point of denial that this character was joining GH.

What do you think about this rumor? Will Kelly Thiebaud land a spot on the CBS soap, The Bold and the Beautiful?
