"Prepare for a big drop in ratings after this ep," wrote one Twitter user.
Another tweeted to Bloomfield, saying their heart was broken by her character's departure.
Rachel McKenna has had four husbands and many more lovers during her time on the soap opera, including an on-again off-again relationship with Chris Warner which spanned 15 years.
Some were taking her departure pretty hard.
"I don't know what to do and say and how to cope," wrote one Twitter user.
However, others were looking on the bright side, saying at least the show didn't kill her off.
Bloomfield herself weighed in on Twitter as well, posting a picture of a goodbye cake for Rachel.
