When it comes to Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart) there is no telling what he is capable of. His most recent betrayal to the one he loves, Nina (Cynthia Watros) was the last straw. General Hospital spoilers reveal that despite Nina’s seemingly affectionate behavior toward her almost husband, Valentin, Nina is out for revenge on the man that has claimed to love her yet betrayed her in the most hurtful way. Nina has been on a quest for years to find the daughter she thought she lost when she was under the control of her own mother, Madeline Reeves (Donna Mills). Nina had thought she found the missing piece to her life when Sasha Gilmore (Sofia Mattsson) presented herself as Nina’s daughter at the orders of Valentin Cassadine. Now that Nina knows the truth, and Valentin was behind the ruse this whole time, she is ready for payback.
But was Sasha Valentin’s only pawn in this “Nina’s daughter identity game?” Perhaps not. General Hospital spoilers hint toward the possibility that Valentin has more interest in Nelle Benson (Chloe Lanier) than anyone thought. Attorney Martin Gray (Michael E. Knight) had agreed to take on Nelle’s case and has been working in her defense (so we think). However, his law skills haven’t been of benefit to Nelle since she is still sitting behind bars in Pentonville. He’s been representing her pro bono, which raises a red flag. It seems Martin Gray isn’t just “helping” Nelle in an attempt to win a Good Samaritan award.
General Hospital spoilers insinuate this could be yet another secret of Valentin Cassadine, and the he has hired Martin to represent Nelle, not to help her, but to make sure she stays locked up. Valentin received an update on Nelle from Gray, which leads viewers to wonder why Valentin would be so interested.
Nelle and Valentin have a rocky past dating back to the days she worked as a nanny for his daughter, Charlotte Cassadine (Scarlett Fernandez), when Nelle tried to blackmail Valentin and he turned the tables on her.
Nina has been in search of the daughter she thought she lost back when she was in a coma and under the control of her own mother, Madeline Reeves (Donna Mills). As if Nina hasn’t been hurt enough throughout the years for holding onto hope she will someday find her daughter, now she may be facing another disappointing outcome. She is just starting to get over the heartbreak when she found out that Sasha Gilmore had been lying this entire time and posing as Nina’s daughter, under the orders of Valentin and Nina is ready to get revenge on him.
How will Nina take the news if the GH rumors are true and Nelle Benson is actually Nina’s biological daughter? Is Valentin keeping Nelle away from Nina with pure intentions? It’s possible Valentin just doesn’t want toxic Nelle in Nina’s life. In some way, if Valentin is keeping Nelle’s identity as Nina’s daughter a secret, it could be to protect Nina. GH viewers do know that Valentin is sort of capable of love, as he truly does love his daughter, Charlotte, as well as Nina. Nina is already done with Valentin as she seeks out revenge, but when this truth bomb gets dropped, Nina will be even more shaken by yet another lie and deep dark secret from Valentin.
