More Information
Violet said a tearful goodbye to Brook Lynn and Tracy on Monday’s episode. The young actress shared what it was like on set that day.
“At the end of the scene, everyone was there. Frank [Valentini, executive producer] had a big bouquet of flowers, Mark [Teschner, casting director] said some nice things about my first audition when I was 4 years old, everyone clapped and gave me hugs. I felt very loved.”
Is Violet Gone For Good?
Jophielle Love loved her time on the soap. She said that she loved joking with her co-stars and playing hide and seek in the costume department. The young starlet said the show made her an actress. She expressed interest in a possible singing career.
“[General Hospital] gave me my first Emmy nomination as a songwriter [for ‘Shine,’ which she performed on-screen in 2023]. That is so great because my other dream is to become a singer. I love singing and I love writing songs.”
So, would she return to the soap opera if asked? The door was left open and she would be more than happy to return someday. “I don’t know how or when, but I hope it is not in too long from now. It would be great if I could come back with my dad but as we saw, there is no way of knowing what the story will be,” she said.
In the meantime, fans can catch her on ABC’s primetime hit, Will Trent. She plays Cooper, the younger daughter of Michael Ormewood.
