General Hospital news say that the drama off screen is heating up just as much as it is on screen in the soap’s fictional town of Port Charles. That’s because the stars of the show have been making a whole lot of headlines in the last several weeks and especially after it was announced that two prominent actors were forced to leave because they did not comply with the ABC network’s vaccine mandate: Ingo Rademacher and Steve Burton. Well, another General Hospital star has also been making a lot of waves, simply because she keeps commenting about each and every situation on Twitter, much to the dismay of both fans and critics alike: Nancy Lee Grahn. Here’s what you need to know.
Apparently, it was Grahn who took it upon herself to announce Ingo Rademacher’s departure from the show before it was even made official by General Hospital producers. If that weren’t enough, when fellow co-star Carolyn Hennesy said on Twitter that she would miss having Steve Burton around on the set of the show by saying, “Politics absolutely aside from anything (because it’s not about that at the moment, it’s about loss,) he’s a kind, smart, funny, caring human who always made me feel terrific as an actor and friend,” Grahn bluntly replied with, “Actually it is. About loss. There are 5.6 million losses.” The actress was referring to the millions of people who have so far died because of the global pandemic that has been COVID-19.
In addition, Grahn has been very vocal about her personal views and the fact that General Hospital is the only soap that currently has a vaccine mandate, which she strongly supports. But not all GH fans are interested in hearing Grahn’s musings and opinions on social media, and that is why there are several petitions calling for her dismissal online.
If that weren’t enough, some critics have even formed a Facebook group asking the producers of General Hospital to fire the actress. Many critics made it pretty clear that they didn’t appreciate Grahn announcing Rademacher’s departure prematurely or any of the comments she’s made to her Twitter followers who don’t agree with her opinions. So far Nancy Lee Grahn herself has not made any comments about the criticism that is growing against her.

I have lost much with the Covid. I think not getting vaccinated is EXTREMELY foolish. Having said that, I did appreciate Carolyn Hennesys kind words for a man who has been said to be a very decent co worker for years. Nancy G. should have let it lay. She is only an actor; not the Pope.
I think Disney & ABC have misread the majority of viewers feelings-they will pay the price when all the truth comes out about the vaccine & their numbers fall and they go by the way of all my children & one life to live. Why is ABC the only station requiring the mandate-ask yourselves that- they were in trouble-it was the fans that made the differnce. We could make the difference now in the opposite direction & get them cxled.
Yes I would wholeheartedly support Nancy Lee Grahn being FIRED!!!
Nancy Lee Grahn might want to discuss how many lives were NOT lost, how many people that had COVID shots had break through cases and how much in such a short time fighting this Virus is still not known. Perhaps Ms Grahn might like to discuss how many of the rapid test for the virus show faults results. This is not about her acting ability, it is about her opinion and her belief that she is right and everyone else is wrong. If she believes the government and unelected officials should determine what she puts in her body, it is her right to an opinion guaranteed by the Constitution of the United Stayes; however her opinion is no more correct than those who choose otherwise. California's blue state laws and obviously ABC's decision to honor it does not make it sacrosanct. Two of GH's best are gone and one might ask is it really COVID or ABC's Politics. Where Nancy Lee Grahn fits in is the legend in her own mind.
I truly believe politics has played a role in these firings. I also believe screen time decisions are made based on liberal politics. The uproar when a transgender post compared to multiple bullying posts against right leaning fans is an example.
I am yet one more fan that is tired of NLG's tweeting. The character of Alexis is NOT that integral to GH that she is indispensable!
then don't read it!
If you don’t like what Nancy says and obviously you’re friends with her if you’re reading it on Twitter and just unfriend her. This is her page and she’s allowed to post whatever she wants on there I don’t like what I’m waiting on anybody’s page either scroll by or I unfriend them and you have that right and she has the right to post what she wants on her page
No one is “friending” her, that B is all over Twitter and the Internet, and can’t keep her disgusting mouth shut for five minutes
She's vile, hope she finds another gig somewhere else.
I’m going to miss Jason too but that doesn’t mean Nancy is wrong. GH set the mandate. Nancy just agreed.I hope Steve Burton will return to the show eventually.
Nancy Lee Grahn is disgusting. She spews hate all over the place and if someone disagrees she blocks you or calls you names. It is time for this woman to go. She is as bad as her general hospital character Alexis.
I think it should be up to them if they want the vaccine. Some who got the shot still got the virus
