'''Samantha Kelly''' (credited as '''Sam Kelly''' in many games) is [[Princess Peach]] and [[Toad]]'s current and longest running voice actress, replacing [[Nicole Mills]] and [[Jen Taylor]]. She has provided their voice work since ''[[Mario Strikers Charged]]'' and ''[[Mario Party 8]]'' respectively (excluding ''[[Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games]]'', ''[[Mario Tennis Open]]'' (for Princess Peach), and ''[[Mario Kart Arcade GP DX]]''). She also voices [[Toadette]], [[Baby Peach]] and [[Pink Gold Peach]]. Some games use the voice clips of Jen Taylor or Nicole Mills with those of Kelly, such as ''[[Mario Tennis Aces]]'' and ''[[Mario Strikers Charged]]''.

Though she does not voice Peach and Toad in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'' (who are instead voiced by [[Anya Taylor-Joy]] and [[Keegan-Michael Key]] respectively), some Toads in the movie utter reused voice clips of Kelly's portrayal of the Toad species.
