‘General Hospital’s’ Kelly Monaco celebrates her 12th Anniversary today as the lovely, sexy, devil-may-care, Samantha McCall Morgan. She swept into Port Charles, NY on the now defunct soap, “Port Charles” as con woman Olivia “Livvie” Locke-Morley from 1999 until 2003, and then as short-lived character, Tess Ramsey from 2002 – 2003 when the show was cancelled.
When Port Charles ended, Kelly then came on board to the cast of General Hospital as Samantha McCall in late 2003. During her years on GH, we’ve seen Kelly involved with a number of PC’s most dashing leading men, namely Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos), Ingo Rademacher (Jaspar Jacks), Michael Easton (Silas Clay), and Jason Thompson (Dr. Patrick Drake).
Though she has been involved with the above characters, there has only been one man who has held her heart, and her love… and that is: Jason Morgan (Quartermaine), first played by Steve Burton (1991 – 2012), and now being played by Billy Miller (2014 – current).
Now, after countless affairs-of-the-heart gone wrong, the last one being the ill-fated, often contentious affair with the overly-jealous, Dr. Patrick Drake, Samantha is coming back to the man who has haunted her dreams and whom she is only complete with… and that is her husband, Jason Morgan, whom she thought was dead and lost to her.
Samantha and Jason have a rich back history, and the fans of “JaSam”, as they have been affectionately dubbed, got the much-anticipated, much-longed for first kiss of their reunion, on Friday, February 12th. Jason and Sam kissed for the first time since Jason first returned to Port Charles a little over a year ago, but he didn’t know who he was then.
Now, the stage is set for NuJason and Sam to start to re-build a life together as together, they struggle to help Jason put the pieces of his fractured past that have come as flashes of memory of a life he doesn’t remember, back together.
Congratulations to you Kelly! Here is to another 12 years as Samantha Morgan and being a part of one of the most-loved and most-endearing and enduring couples on Daytime TV.

Love her, She needs to be back with Jason
I’m thrilled you want to see Samantha back with Jason, Diane. I’ve loved JaSam ever since the first time he rescued her. They make a GREAT couple!
Glad you liked the article!
Keep watching,

Congratulations Kelly! Love you on GH and love you with Billy, on and off screen if that is the case.
I have to agree with you, Jan! Kelly and Billy are such a HOT couple — both on and off screen — that the screen heats up and the dialog that’s been written for them just sizzzzles! 😉
Glad you liked the article!

I’m glad she’s back with Jason. He’s hot and she’s beautiful.
I’m ecstatic that Sam and Jason are FINALLY back together, Beth! A great many JaSam-lovers have been craving this reunion for far too long… and the writers, and Kelly and Billy, have definitely made the wait all the more worthwhile!
Thank you for reading, and liking, the article! 🙂

Kelly Monaco is one of the most beautiful and talented ladies to ever grace the screen at GH.I loved her the first moment I saw her.Her character Samantha McCall is a true pleasure to watch and the relationship with Jason Morgan has all the elements true love can survive and continue on despite the worst life can give.Loved her with Steve Burton and simply adore her with Billy Miller.They are truly a super soap couple and hopefully the same in real life.I wish the best for them both professionally and privately.
Kelly is a very beautiful woman indeed, Elaine; and her talent is obvious from the moment the camera pans to her or follows her in her scenes or in scenes with Jason. I remember when she first came to Port Charles as Olivia “Livvie” Locke-Morley as a con woman… and then how she started changing when she discovered and cared for her brother Daniel (who she named Danny after).
I find that I am eager to see how Sam and Jason build their new relationship now that they’ve changed and evolved — as Sam has said recently. I think it can only get better and their bond can deepen once again. <3
So glad you read, and liked, the article.
Keep watching,
Tori 🙂
Congratulations Kelly on being on our screens and GH for 12 years. I became a huge fan starting with Livvie and have been one ever since. Sam McCall Mogan was made for you and you for her. I adore Jasam from the moment you connected with the Jason character. Here’s to many more years. Love ya!!???
Toni,
