You might love or hate Dr. Britt, but you must agree that Kelly Thiebaud aced the role. The General Hospital star is awarded the Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series.

According to Media reports, Kelly stayed single for a long time post-breakup with Craig. Before dating Bryan, she was in a relationship with The Twilight Saga actor Kellan Lutz. Kellan was cast as Emmett Cullen in the film series. It was in January 2011 when they got together.
