On Finola Hughes leaving General Hospital…
It has been a very tough week for our favorite law-enforcment office, Anna Devane.. the former Chief of Police, and now Special Agent, finally found her way back to Duke Lavery, one of the great loves of her life.
Just as soon as they decided to to run away together – leave everything behind to start their lives together – he was snatched away from her again, this time shot and killed by mobster Carlos Rivera.
Both Sonny and and Anna are now determined to get justice for Duke, and Anna is nothing if not thorough in her investigations.
With this dramatic storyline comes the news that Finola Hughes is leaving General Hospital.. but wait, it’s only temporary!
The talented actress will be taking a three-month break from the show this summer to direct a film, Byrd and the Bees.
Expect to see how Anna copes with life after Duke, but she won’t be taking steps to form new lasting relationships just yet – she will be off-screen for a little while, but is definitely not gone from Port Charles!
