Much to fans’ dismay, Kate Mansi is leaving General Hospital. Kristina just told us the reason that she will be moving away from Port Charles, and it seemingly came out of nowhere.

Key Takeaways

  • Kristina shocked everyone when she announced she had been accepted into medical school.
  • The character may have finally taken a step to grow on her own.
  • Molly and Alexis may not take her seriously.

Dr. Kristina Corinthos-Davis?

Mid-conversation with Molly (Kristen Vaganos), Kristina (Kate Mansi) received a message that she had been accepted into medical school.

Medical school? Has Kristina ever mentioned wanting to become a doctor? Did she even graduate from college? Take the MCATs? This seemingly came out of nowhere.

Nobody wants to see Kate Mansi leave GH. She has made the role of Kristina her own, and fans adore her. The good thing about this storyline is that it gives the actress the opportunity to return if she chooses to.

Kristina has been struggling to find herself ever since she was a teen. The character was in an abusive relationship, joined a cult, became her sister’s surrogate, fell out of a window, and tried to murder Ava (Maura West). She finally seems to be getting it together with the reopening of Charlie’s, and suddenly, she is making a major shift with medical school.

A Whole New Kristina Or More Drama?

Kristina has never truly found her own identity. Charlie’s was gifted to her by Sonny (Maurice Benard), but she didn’t do it on her own. She may finally be maturing and wants to build a career on her own terms. Medical school could be the best thing for her and her self-esteem. Kristina might return to Port Charles as a successful doctor and prove everyone wrong.

Molly and Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) may not see it that way. Kristina is the daughter that Alexis has always worried about. Mom and sister might see this as just another flighty choice by Kristina that she will not follow through on. This may cause drama in the family, but they will hopefully give Kristina all the love and support she needs so she can have a successful career.
