00:00Life hasn't always been easy for Kelly Monaco.

00:03The former General Hospital star has been through everything from getting fired to heartbreaks

00:08that could break anyone's spirit.

00:11But what really hits hard is that she's lost not one, but two of the most important

00:15men in her life.

00:17So let's take a closer look at these tough moments and how she's powered through it all.

00:22Hey everyone, welcome to Trend Street.

00:26Kelly Monaco has been a famous face in the soap industry for decades.

00:31She kicked off her daytime drama journey back in 1999 on Port Charles, but it was in October

00:372003 when she stepped into the role of Samantha McCall on General Hospital that really put

00:43her on the map.

00:45She was an instant hit with fans, to the point she even got her first Daytime Emmy nomination

00:50for the Best Supporting Actress that very same year.

00:54For 21 years, Monaco brought Sam to life, but then came November 2024 when the show

01:00decided to fire Monaco and kill off Sam.

01:02Worst part?

01:03It wasn't her call and even Monaco was blindsided by the news.

01:07Fans were furious and even launched a petition to save her.

01:11Unfortunately, it wasn't enough to change the outcome and fans were left reeling.

01:16But as heartbreaking as her firing was, it doesn't compare to the pain of losing not

01:20one, but two of her exes.

01:24Kelly Monaco's life hasn't been short on heartbreak and losing Heath Freeman was one

01:29of the hardest blows.

01:31Known for keeping her personal life under wraps, Monaco never publicly confirmed their

01:35relationship, but their red carpet appearances and countless outings together told a different

01:40story.

01:41The two were reportedly a couple from 2010 to 2014 and even after their split, they stayed

01:47close.

01:48In fact, in 2020, Freeman wished Monaco a heartfelt happy birthday on Instagram, calling

01:54her his best friend on planet Earth.

01:57But tragedy struck just a year later.

02:00On November 14, 2021, Freeman, best known for his roles on Bones and NCIS, passed away

02:06from an accidental overdose.

02:08The news came as a shock to everyone.

02:11While Monaco remained silent publicly, insiders shared that she was deeply devastated by the

02:15loss.

02:18Julie Miller is a name forever linked to Monaco, both on and off the screen.

02:23Like her relationship with Freeman, Monaco never officially confirmed a romance with

02:27her General Hospital co-star, but fans couldn't help but speculate.

02:31The rumors really picked up after the two were spotted laughing and playing together

02:35on a beach in 2015.

02:38Their close bond began in 2014 when Miller stepped in to play Jason Morgan, Sam McCall's

02:43love interest.

02:45But their on-screen chemistry wasn't enough to save Miller's place on the show.

02:50He left GH in 2019, leaving fans, and Monaco, heartbroken.

02:54She even addressed his exit in a now-deleted tweet, saying,

03:03Then on September 15, 2023, Miller, who had been battling bipolar disorder, tragically

03:09died by suicide.

03:11The soap world was absolutely devastated, and Monaco, once again, kept quiet.

03:16However, a year later, she broke her silence with an emotional Instagram post, which is

03:22now deleted, saying she missed him and promising to one day tell our story.

03:27She ended the post with,

03:31Losing two people so close to her heart in just two years is a heartbreak beyond words.

03:36She barely had time to grieve Heath's loss before the pain of Miller's passing hit.

03:41Yet, through it all, Kelly keeps moving forward with grace, and that's exactly why we love

03:45her.

03:46So, let's all share some love for the amazing actress in the comments down below.
