What A Ride It’s Been
Taking to Instagram, McCoy (Josslyn) shared a carousel of photos to celebrate her special anniversary. The first two photos marked the milestone, while others featured her Daytime Emmy win, behind-the-scenes moments, and her first day on set.
“Today marks 10 years since my first episode of General Hospital aired 🖐🏼 10 years 🖐🏼 of life has happened in this studio. What a special thing to be able to celebrate. And an impossible thing to put into words,” began her lengthy caption.
Despite going through those awkward teen years on television, McCoy’s thrilled that someday her kids will get to witness her grow up on camera. Life looks so much different today for McCoy than it did on her first day on set.
The actress is grateful to have her GH family by her side throughout life. When she looks back on different scenes from the past 10 years, McCoy tends to see what was happening in her real life rather than with her alter ego.
McCoy knows the fans are the reason she has gotten to play Josslyn for the past decade, and she had a special message for GH fans:
“This show has given me the opportunity to provide for myself and create the life that I love, and this show is around because of the fans. So thank you to anyone who has tuned in the last decade. And the cast and crew, you know who you are. And the team in the booth that keeps this show running. YOU put the food on my table. And YOU gave me so many lessons that are not seen on camera. I love you,” ended her caption.
Several of McCoy’s current and former GH co-stars popped up in the comments to celebrate her special moment.
McCoy’s on-screen mom, Laura Wright (Carly), declared, “I love you,” while Katelyn MacMullen (Willow) wrote, “This girl! 🔥.” Kate Mansi (Kristina), Braedyn Bruner (Emma), Brooklyn Rae Silzer (ex-Emma), and William Lipton (Cameron) all sent love and praise to McCoy on her anniversary.
Josslyn started out as a pre-teen when McCoy landed the role of Carly and Jax’s (Ingo Rademacher) daughter. Now she’s a college student by day and a WSB agent by night. Regardless of what she is doing, Josslyn has proved more than once that she’s just like her mother, which means when Carly finds out her daughter’s secret life, things will be explosive between them.
Congrats to McCoy on 10 years as Josslyn Jacks!
