General Hospital is an American medical drama soap opera series that takes places in the fictional city of Port Charles in New York. On air since 1963, the series is one of the longest running dramas on American television and holds a record for most Daytime Emmy Awards for an Outstanding Drama Series! Similar to most soap opera series, the show revolves around some major families like the Quartermaines and the Spencers and has no shortage of drama, scheming, and of course, romance. With such a long running series, characters come and go all the time and viewers have seen some incredible actors on this show. Here’s a look at 12 recent General Hospital stars and how much they are worth:
12. Laura Wright
Estimated Net Worth: $3 million. Laura Wright is well recognized for her two most recent leading roles on daytime television. Her first lead was an Emmy winning role as Cassie Layne Winslow on Guiding Light, a character she portrayed from 1997 to 2005. Right after she left that show, she moved onto Carly Corinthos on General Hospital and earned another Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress. Clearly, Laura’s been quite successful in her soap opera career, but what’s even more respectable is that she’s had leading roles in all of her job opportunities. When she first started out she was in a main role on the soap opera Loving, and her next job was on a soap spin off, The City in another main role! She has one film credit which was a recent cameo appearance in the 2015 feature film called Joy. With her prominent roles in big series and a feature film credit we think her net worth is higher, but right now it’s estimated at $3 million.
