Sofia Mattsson is saying goodbye to Port Charles.
After a seven-year run on the show, the 34-year-old is departing from her role as Sasha Gilmore, the daughter of Holly Sutton (Emma Samms) and Robert Scorpio (Tristan Rogers). Her final episode on July 18 saw Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) help her to leave the country for her baby Daisy’s safety.
And for the actress, her long tenure on the show was a pleasant surprise.
“I started off thinking it would be just a few episodes on recurring status, so I definitely did not think I’d stay so long,” Sofia told TV Insider in an interview published July 18. “But I will say it’s gone by incredibly quickly. From the start, I’ve seen every day as a challenge and opportunity to grow as an actress, and honestly, that mindset never stopped. I feel like I learned something new every day until the end!”
