Expect the unexpected! Although, when Anna approached Jason about their “friendship,” I had a sneaky suspicion that something could be brewing between them. At this point it’s unclear if Jason and Anna’s kiss is the start of something new for both the hitman and the spy.
General Hospital spoilers tease that the shocking kiss continues to haunt Anna. She can’t seem to unsee when Jason passionately pulled her in and kissed her during their moments of near death. Unfortunately, Anna and Jason’s friendship was crumbling as quickly as it was built. Soon, tension between them was thick as they stand at opposite ends when it comes to Sonny Corinthos. Despite her sudden censure for Sonny and everything he stands for, Anna she once held him in high regard. Because of this, she and Jason were at odds.
The near-death experience has set the groundwork for a potentially romantic connection between Jason and Anna. GH rumors claim that it won’t end here. As a result, GH fans react on social media.
Reddit users express their opinions on the hit man and spy’s kiss. One user wrote, “First off, their chemistry is so nonexistent that I’m convinced they’re secretly allergic to each other.” Other comments like, “Let’s not even talk about the physical affection. When they kissed, it looked like two vacuum cleaners fooling around,” make the kisses disapproval crystal clear. One GH fan even wrote, “Anna and Jason suck.”
Furthermore, some fans could be in denial. It’s quite possible that their kiss was strictly to create a diversion. One user says, “Meh, I think the kiss was just a kiss, at this point. They were distracting the guards. Worse case scenario, they knew they were going to die, so why not kiss someone you care about (not necessarily romantically) for a last moment of feeling something other than fear?”
Michael Betrays Sonny To Protect Kristina! …Since the early 1990s the PCPD has been working in circles to remove organized crime from Port Charles. To finally nail Kingpin Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) would be the department’s biggest accomplishment. Despite the fact that worse criminals have been caught, captured, and convicted, the PCPD’s eyes are set on Sonny.
Chase Arrests Kristina, Michael Betrays Sonny
General Hospital spoilers and rumors tease that Sonny is backed into a corner. Apparently, things take an unexpected turn when not only Alexis, but Kristina Corinthos (Kate Mansi) is also arrested. Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) currently sits in Pentonville with Heather Webber (Alley Mills) as her bunkie.
According to General Hospital rumors, it’s only a matter of time before the public catches wind of Kristina’s intentions for Agent Cates (Adam Harrington). GH recaps recall that Alexis’s freedom is at stake as she faces trial for John Cate’s murder. Meanwhile, Sonny has the freedom to flirt with whomever he pleases. At some point, any single one of those who know the truth could double think keeping Sonny’s secret.
So far, Diane Miller (Carolyn Hennesy), Carly (Laura Wright), and Michael (Chad Duell) know that Sonny killed Jagger Cates. Could someone turn the tables on Sonny and implicate him to save Kristina? He’s protected by attorney-client confidentiality, so Diane is out of the question. According to the latest GH rumors, the most likely person to betray Sonny is Michael. First, it wouldn’t be the first time. Second, Kristina is his sister. And third, Carly will always stick by Sonny.
While Dante, Rocco, and Laura pray for a miracle, Lulu’s uncle tries to take matters into his own hands. Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober) is the uncle Lulu Spencer never wanted. Sure, he’s concerned about his niece now, but where was that concern when he ordered Julian Jerome (William deVry) to plant a bomb at the Floating Rib.
General Hospital recaps remind fans of who Cyrus used to be prior to his spiritual awakening. Laura Spencer Collins’s (Genie Francis) never knew she had a brother, let alone two. But Cyrus and Martin Grey (Michael E. Knight) blew into her life like the winds on pier 52. Not only did Laura never ask for brothers, she certainly never wished upon a star for a psychotic, murdering, long-lost sibling. Thankfully, of Laura’s two new family members, only one is certifiable.
General Hospital spoilers indicate that the self-proclaimed, Jesus-pleasing criminal wants to take matters into his own hands when it comes to his niece. Lulu Spencer remains in a coma and lives on borrowed time. She’s fighting for her life and her liver is failing. Right now, her only hope is to be saved by her brother Lucky Spencer (Jonathan Jackson).
Cyrus Ends Lulu’s Suffering
According to recent General Hospital rumors, Cyrus takes his vow to help Lulu in any way very seriously. He determined to help his niece, now matter what. Apparently, Cyrus’s newfound religion has him justifying the unthinkable. So, he believes that he can help Lulu if he ends her suffering. Will Lucky get a chance to save his sister before Cyrus does her in?
General Hospital’s Michael E. Knight and Nancy Lee Grahn share more upcoming scenes! …Port Charles is stocked with capable attorneys. After all, crime runs rampant around these streets, and the people of Port Charles want justice.

General Hospital spoilers indicate that Alexis is stuck behind bars unless drastic measures are taken. She’s already outed Kristina (Kate Mansi) to her lawyer Martin Gray. Now it’s only a matter of time before the PC PD go after Sonny and Alexis‘s daughter.
General Hospital news and spoilers indicate that Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) and Martin Grey (Michael E. Knight) have their work cut out for them.

Meanwhile, off the set, GH news news reports reveal that Michael E. Knight speaks out on his co-star Nancy Lee Grahn. GH spoilers reveal that night had something to say about grand as they share more screen time as Alexis and Martin. Evidently, Knight got candid in an interview and revealed that he has a crush on Nancy. He told Soap Opera Digest, “I’ve got a crush on Nancy.” Then, the former AMC alum (Tad Martin) continued to rave about Nancy. “Nancy is wonderful! I mean, how lucky am I? Nancy has forgotten more about doing daytime than most people will ever know. I love her. She’s phenomenal. She’s one of those people where it literally doesn’t matter what the scene [is about] — she’s like playing handball against the wall; it doesn’t matter what you hit, it’s going to come back to you.”
Do any General Hospital fans hope that Natalia and Sonny Have A Future? …If it were up to Natalia Ramirez (Eva LaRue) she and Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) would have already hit the sheets. Well, at least that’s my take on her discernible flirting with the Port Charles mobster. An audience perspective can see through her inner desires. Evidently, her laugh, body language, and now even the words she says to Sonny allude to Natalia’s romantic desires.
General Hospital previews indicate that Natalia remains hopeful for what’s ahead. It’s possible that Blaze’s mom has on rose colored glasses when it comes to Sonny. Apparently, she hasn’t the slightest clue that he murdered Agent John Cates (Adam Harrington). For the time being, Cates’s actual murderer walks free.
Meanwhile, Kristina’s (Kate Mansi) mother Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) is locked up on murder charges. Surely, Alexis has been wrongfully indicted. As much as I hate to say it, Sonny Corinthos is the one who belongs behind bars.
Do Natalia and Sonny Have A Future?
Unless Sonny and Carly pull off their alibi- Sonny Corinthos is going to spend the rest of his life in Federal Prison. And if the once Mr. and Mrs. Corinthos can fake it until they make it… then what room is there for Natalia? That’s right, none.

In 1992, Antonio Sabato Jr. joined General Hospital’s iconic cast. He portrayed John “Jagger” Cates from 1992-1995. His time in the daytime drama may have been short, but Sabato’s presence remains unforgettable. Then, Nancy Lee Grahn’s acting experiences as Beverly Wilkes (ABC’s OLTL), and Julia Wainwright (NBC’s Santa Barbara) helped lead Grahn to land the role of Alexis Davis.
In September of 1996, Grahn began her time on General Hospital as Attorney Alexis Davis. Working for the mob, Alexis had a prominent role in Port Charles alongside her client, Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard). Although Jagger and Alexis had very bliss ties to Sonny, the two never crossed paths in the 90s. And despite never having worked together, Nancy drew attention to the possibility that she was given Sabato‘s old dressing room.
According to General Hospital news reports, Grahn’s recent posts reveal the latest GH drama. Off-set, GH’s Alexis Davis and former General Hospital star are at odds. Antonio Sabato Jr.’s character, Jagger (Adam Harrington), was recently killed off the show. But Sabato hasn’t played the role since 1995. Last week, Grahn shared an IG photo referencing the former Jagger’s old dressing room.
