"After every day of filming my current storyline on General Hospital I quickly hurried home and hugged my little baby so hard," Sofia wrote on Instagram. "And while I felt such extreme gratefulness to have him be so healthy and happy, my heart was still breaking for everyone who goes through similar experiences to Sasha and Brando, or loss of any kind, in real life."
Sofia went on a month-long maternity leave in September 2021, resuming paintings on General Hospital in October 2021.
However, she has yet to share further details about why she determined to take day off from the new episode. Her sister, Helena, confirmed that she would be filling in for her on Instagram on January 28, 2022. "Such a blast jumping in on my sister's show for the day," Helena wrote. This likely means that Sasha can be again in the next episode.

General Hospital enthusiasts headed to Twitter to talk about the brand new trends. "How wonderful it was to see that Sofia's temporary replacement as Sasha is her real life sister, Helena!" tweeted @BethJune26.
"The sister switch for a day was cool on General Hospital. GH's Sasha, Sofia Mattsson, missed a day of taping, so they called in Sofia's sister, Helena Mattsson, to pinch hit as Sasha. That is a pretty neat trick," tweeted @Bushwackerbob1.

But some enthusiasts were moderately much less pleased.
"Um, really, General Hospital? What's with all the temp recasts? The recast for Sasha looks nothing like the other one; you can't go from dark hair to blonde," tweeted @IAmAlien88.

Sasha lately misplaced her baby on 'General Hospital.' What's next?
Sasha suffered a miscarriage on a previous episode of General Hospital. Fans of the show now suspect she would possibly relapse into an alcohol habit. The persona attracted similar rumors in 2020, after dropping the person prior to now billed as the affection of her existence, Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell).
"Am I the only one that saw what looked like a glass of wine in front of Sasha? The addict?" tweeted @susanmc66763096.
"Does GH have a psychologist in their cast that Sasha could talk to that happens to have an office in the hospital?" tweeted @MichiganMariee.
New episodes of General Hospital air weekdays at 2 p.m. EST on ABC.
