Sadly, this is the third major loss Morgan has suffered in recent years. Her father, Michael Morgan, passed away on November 5, 2019. “I have been sitting with this post for a week,” Morgan wrote after her dad died. “Daddy, all that I have, is a ‘thank you’ that rises from the depths of my soul. Thank you for loving me when I didn’t deserve it, trusting me when I didn’t trust myself, and seeing me when no one else did. Thank you for inspiring me to be the greatest version of myself, and for expecting nothing less.”

In April 2020, Morgan lost her beloved Great Aunt Semoy. “Rest in power auntie,” Morgan expressed at the time. “My great auntie Semoy was a true angel on earth. I wish I could say ‘goodbye’ and ‘thank you,’ one last time. Cheers to this special lady who will be deeply missed. Love you auntie.” Soap Hub sends sincere condolences to Mishael Morgan at this difficult time.
