Why Marci Miller made the decision to leave the role of DAYS’s Abigail.
Soap Opera Digest: When did you first start thinking about leaving?
Marci Miller: You know, I started thinking about it about nine months ago, when I was in the midst of the [Abigail/Laura/ Gabby] storyline, honestly. It is a lot of work and it’s a big challenge. I was excited about the idea of getting to try some other things. I mean, this is a beautiful job and it’s opened up a lot of opportunities for growth and learning. I got excited to be able to kind of try out all of these things that I learned in other parts of the industry.
Digest: There was such a reaction from the fans and your own castmates to the news of your exit. How did you feel to see how upset they were?
Miller: You don’t ever want anybody to be upset, but it was validating in the sense of like, “Oh, I’m so glad to hear that I served a purpose there,” you know? You go to work every day and we’re kind of in this basement of a place and you bury your head and just show up to work every day and I forget that there’s a whole group of people that are actually witnessing everything that you’re doing every day. It felt really good in a way to feel like they cared.
Digest: How would you describe your final days on the show?
