But in 2012, McCullough left the soap opera to pursue her other passion of directing.
“I remember that I had support so,” he shared on the 2021 episode of the “Dishing with Digest” podcast. “I remember all the people on the show like, ‘We’re so sad to see you go, but you need to go.’ It was almost like a college graduation or something and hoped to make my parents proud.

By Kimberly McCullough / Instagram“I would just say it’s time in my life I appreciate so much and I wouldn’t be who I was without but I don’t feel it needs to be done anymore,” he said on the December 2024 episode of “The Locher Room” podcast. “I feel like I’ve just passed on to another part of myself where I can expand a little more. But I miss the amazing story people and lines.”
Instead of walking red carpets or going to Hollywood events, McCullough prefers to stay behind the camera working on a variety of projects, including an original musical film with Xochitl Gomez title Don’t forget.
His Instagram is filled with pictures of his garden or quality time spent alongside her dog and son, whose face is often hidden.
“Being a boy’s mother means I really realized my potential as a human being,” she joked through Instagram In May 2025. “Happy Mothers Day for all celebrations.”
While she has moved on from her A general hospital Days, McCullough still has a deep appreciation for her soap opera character.
“Now that I’ve had a little time away from Robin, I think now I can really appreciate how much I am and she is,” she shared on “The Locher Room” podcast. “I think that’s even more obvious because no one else has played my character. Of course that could always happen but I’m the only one to play Robin.”
