Fans of General Hospital have taken to social media to share their love for Erika Slezak‘s portrayal of Veronica “Ronnie” Bard and hope that she returns soon. After the character left for the airport to go back to her hometown, she has been missing from the soap opera since. Now, fans have expressed their desire to see more of Ronnie’s journey.
Here’s what the fans are saying about the character.
General Hospital fans shower Erika Slezak’s Ronnie with love, ask for her return
On the November 6 episode of General Hospital, Tracy (Jane Elliot) apologized to Ronnie (Erika Slezak) for her actions and pleaded for her forgiveness. While Ronnie did forgive her, she decided not to stay in the mansion. Later at Bobbie’s, she meets the rest of the Quartermaine family and informs them that she’s going back to her hometown, Durham.
Following her emotional scene with Tracy and her interaction at Bobbie’s, the character has not returned since. Now, many are worried that it may have been her final goodbye.
On General Hospital’s Facebook page, a user uploaded a photo of Ronnie with a heartfelt caption. The user wrote, “Not Her Final Goodbye (and let’s hope not). Erika Slezak hints at a General Hospital comeback after a very memorable and emotional departure of epic proportions.
The Ronnie and Tracey storyline has yet a long way to go..let the LEGACY continue!”
Since the upload, the post has gone viral, with fans expressing the same desire.
One user wrote, “She did a great job with her role. Hope she can come back for a visit! Wonderful actress.” Meanwhile, another user said, “Love you Erika!!!! Thank you for gifting us with your talent and just you who has been terribly missed.” A third user expressed, “I can’t wait till she’s back again enjoyed her and Tracy going back and forth.”
A few fans are even hoping that Ronnie will at least return for Thanksgiving or Christmas. Whether she returns or not is yet to be seen. But considering that there is no news about Erika Slezak stepping away from the role in General Hospital, it is safe to assume that Ronnie could return.
