According to GH news, Nicholas Bechtel left General Hospital in 2016 to focus on his role on Disney Channel’s Stuck In The Middle.

General Hospital Spoilers: A Troubled Childhood Sheds Light On Dex Heller’s Parents

Dex Heller’s Parents
Dex Heller’s Parents

It’s pretty wild to look back in retrospect and realize how quickly things changed. General Hospital recaps recall hard times for the Corinthos family. In May of 2022, Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell) was dead set on destroying his father’s life and the lifestyle that he’s built for himself and his family. Because in Michael’s eyes Sonny betrayed their family when he developed feelings for Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros).

From what it looks like, Dex Heller (Evan Hofer) could have been an orphan. We know that is wasn’t, but his willingness to put his life on the line leads to certain assumptions. It’s almost like the young man has nothing to lose. Dex joined the military straight out of high school, and he’s estranged from his two brothers. The young army Veteran is seemingly willing to risk his life to work for Michael, and now Sonny.

Who Are Dex’s Mystery Parents?

The identity of Dex’s parents has become a burning question among GH fans. According to General Hospital rumors, multiple scenarios surrounding Dex Heller’s parents continue to circulate. It’s hard to know what to believe because the the possibilities are plentiful. I mean, that’s the fun of it isn’t it? At least it is for me. I love the mystery behind the story and the strategic guessing game that we the fans play.

After a recent GH episode, fans went back to the drawing board to come up with more ideas about Dex’s background. General Hospital spoilers indicate that Dex may have dropped a hint about his troubled past when he empathized with Spencer. Dex was quick to chime in about his Spencer’s dilemma with his brother Ace. It almost seemed like Dex knew all too well what Spencer was going through.

Is Dex referring to a long lost little brother of his own?

General Hospital Spoilers: Dex and Spencer Are More Than Frenemies- They Are BROTHERS

Dex and Spencer are brothers Jason Morgan Courtney Matthews Nikolas Cassadine

Dex and Spencer are brothers! …That means that if all the stars align, and Josslyn (Eden McCoy) and Trina (Tabyana Ali) stay with their current boyfriends, then these two besties will someday become sister in laws! The intrigue brought on by Dex’s unknown paternity draws some to dig deeper into his background. Soon, what’s discovered will rock Port Charles and change the course of many lives.

Dex and Spencer Are More Than Frenemies

Josslyn Jacks and her best friend Trina Robinson, each fell for their very own unique bad boy. First, we have Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Alexander Chavez). He is your typical spoiled, rich-kid type. You know, the kind of guy who didn’t get enough attention from his parents and now everything is about him. Despite all of these red flags, he’s handsome, popular, and did we mention rich?

Second, the new guy in town, Dex Heller is the dangerous kind. Seriously, Portia thinks she has to worry about Spencer being a danger? She should imagine how Joss’s mom feels. It’s doubtful that Carly Corinthos finds any comfort in Josslyn following in her footsteps. Dex Heller (Evan Hofer) is the spitting image of the men she goes for in her life.

Evidently, Trina and Joss are both involved with “bad boys” in their own right. And just because their boyfriends are frenemies, doesn’t mean they also don’t have a lot in common. According to the latest GH news and spoilers, a shocking twist exposes Dex’s family tree, linking Joss and Trina’s boyfriends for life! It has been months of speculation about his biological father’s identity. But only one will hold that title.

In a shocking revelation, Dex’s family tree come to light. According to GH rumors and spoilers, Jason Morgan is Dex’s father, abs his mother is none other than Courtney Matthews! Yes, the same Courtney that is Sonny Corinthos’s sister and Spencer Cassadine’s mother!

General Hospital News And Spoilers: Alicia Leigh Willis Reveals Maurice Benard’s Behind-The-Scenes Behavior Caused Her To Leave GH

Maurice Benard and Alicia Leigh Willis played alongside one another as brother and sister on General Hospital. Alicia joined the cast in December of 2001 through February 2006. In an interview with her former co-star, Willis reveals why she left GH.

General Hospital news reports confirm Maurice Benard recently interviewed his former co-star and TV sister, Alicia Leigh Willis. Alicia portrayed Sonny’s sister Courtney Matthews and is the mother of Sonny’s nephew Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Alexander Chavez). On a recent episode of the YouTube series State Of Mind, General Hospital spoilers reveal Alicia Leigh Willis opened up about her time at General Hospital.

In an intensely insightful State of Mind interview, Willis admits her reason for leaving General Hospital. When discussing Benard’s struggle with mental health, Alicia and Maurice opened up about his behind-the-scenes behavior. According to Willis, Benard’s behavior played a part in her GH exit.

“I didn’t know what you were going through,” Willis confessed. “All I knew is that you and I were really close. And I always had a way of taking things really personally. So if someone was in a bad mood around me, I felt like it was my fault, like I had done something.

“So for a long time, I didn’t know which Maurice I was gonna get,” she added. “One day you were the most charming, amazing… and then another day I was a little scared. I was just like, does he hate me? Did I do something? I didn’t understand at the time.

Things Get Dark

Alicia reflected on some dark times while on the set of General Hospital. “I remember the last year of the show was really dark,” she admitted. “I would go to my dressing room and I would just cry. And it wasn’t just that. That was a big part of it, but I felt like we had such a good connection. That was a big reason. So much was disclosed in this interview, as fans saw a new dynamic between Sonny and Courtney’s portrayers. “This is the first time I’ve ever actually said that out loud,” she added. “Because people said, ‘Why are you leaving the show? They’re offering you another four years. You’re a working actress. What are you doing?’ And I’m like, “I can’t stay. I’m so unhappy.’” Willis acknowledged that she has a better understanding now of what TV brother was going through. “This is the first time I’ve ever actually said that out loud,” she said. “Because people said, ‘Why are you leaving the show? They’re offering you another four years. You’re a working actress. What are you doing?’ And I’m like, “I can’t stay. I’m so unhappy.’”

It sounds like Willis and Benard have come to an understanding. “After I saw the Oprah interview, it clicked,” she told Benard. “And now the journey that you are on is so incredible. Because people need to talk about it. I wish we had talked about it 20 years ago! If we had had this kind of dialogue back then? Think of how much easier it would have been for all of us to just talk to each other.”

Do not miss the interview on YouTube!

General Hospital Spoilers: Sonny Admits His Suspicions To Nikolas, Will He Listen To His Ex Future Brother-In-Law?

Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and Nikolas Cassadine (Marcus Coloma) always had a mutual respect for one another due to the fact that Nikolas was engaged to Sonny’s late sister, Courtney Matthews (Alicia Leigh Willis).

Nikolas and Courtney’s son Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) loves his uncle Sonny and the feeling is reciprocated. Sonny looks after his nephew, offering his protection and anything he may need. Lately Sonny and Nikolas haven’t been getting along, mainly after Esme Prince (Avery Kristen Pohl) drove a wedge between them with her lies and schemes. The tension between them also stems from Ava Jerome’s (Maura West) connection to Sonny as being the mother of one of his children, Avery. Ava and Nikolas share custody of Avery with Sonny. Even Carly has a hand in raising Sonny and Ava’s little girl.

General Hospital spoilers reveal Sonny and Victor Cassadine (Charles Shaughnessy) will butt heads- a power struggle may be on the forefront, and Victor may not want Sonny in his way. It looks like Sonny may be gearing up to protect Ava regarding her situation with Esme flying off the parapet. Victor’s dislike for Ava is apparent, and he only agreed to protect her because Nikolas convince him to do so.

General Hospital rumors suggest, now that Ava and Nikolas are on the outs, her story about Esme won’t necessarily be backed up. Victor and Nikolas most likely won’t be protecting her story if she’s turned her back on Nikolas. Which leaves Sonny. It’s possible that Sonny will want to protect the mother of his child, especially knowing how much trouble Esme has caused. He sees Victor as a threat and will get to warn Nikolas to not be so trusting of his Uncle Victor. Will Nikolas listen to Sonny or dismiss his warning?
