Ever since Chad Duell (Michael Corinthos) announced his decision to leave ABC’s “General Hospital” in an Instagram post on Saturday, which has since amassed more than 20,000 likes, several of the actor’s co-stars have weighed in, all of whom wishing the nearly 15-year daytime veteran the best of luck as he embraces a new adventure.

“Still mad !! But I adore you !!!” commented on-screen mother, Laura Wright (Carly Spencer), whose response included three smiling face with hearts emojis. As for Duell’s on-screen romantic partner, Katelyn MacMullen (Willow Corinthos), she said, “Love you, Chad!!!!” Her sentiments were echoed by Duell’s on-screen sister, Eden McCoy (Josslyn Jacks), who said, “I love you,” using the index pointing at viewer and star emojis.

“You will be so missed!!!!” said Sofia Mattsson (Sasha Gilmore), who noted, “Excited to see what’s next!” Her post also included a heart and star-struck emoji for emphasis.

While his character is romancing Michael’s wife on-screen, Drew Cain’s portrayer Cameron Mathison is showing the love, saying, “Love you brother.”

“Who wrote this for you…..,” questioned Dominic Zamprogna (Dante Falconeri), before clarifying, “Just kidding. I love you Cheddar.” 

Andrea Bogart, who played Abby Haver from October 2010 to December 2011, one of Michaels’ first romantic partners on the daytime drama series, shared, “Awe sending you love and blessing with all you do Chad! #mabby big hugs.”

“You will be missed! Thanks for always being one of the friendliest and funniest guys on set!” posted Scarlett Fernandez (Charlotte Cassadine).

Luana Garcia, Duell’s real-life partner and mother to their child, Dawson, also responded to the news, saying, “Little D and I are always by your side, supporting you through every decision.

Other respondents included Theo and Erik Olson, the twins who previously portrayed Wiley Corinthos, son of Michael and Nelle Benson (Chloe Lanier). The parent-managed Instagram account of the Olson twins commented, “Oh man- you will be SO missed by everyone! Can’t wait to see what your future holds!”

The parent-managed Instagram account for Scarlette Brielle, who plays Donna Corinthos on the soap, said, “Good luck with everything!!!!! Scarlett had so much fun with you, and getting to know you.”

His new squeeze is a Latina.  Interesting!

Love the support he's getting from his cast mates; you can tell how much they do really care for him, and want him to do well in his exit.

Michael’s exit will be a big blow to this show tbh
