Britt Westbourne leaving GH

General Hospital news and spoilers previously reported Kelly Thiebaud’s GH exit. The news of Britt Westbourne leaving GH came as a shock to fans.

General Hospital comings and goings reports shared news of Thiebaud’s upcoming departure from the Emmy Award winning daytime drama back in August.

Why Is Britt Westbourne Leaving GH?

Kelly’s reply implies she will work on both GH and Station 19. Fans wonder why she will still be exiting in November.

It’s possible Britt’s current storyline involving Cody Bell (Josh Kelly), Peter August (Wes Ramsey), and Victor Cassadine (Charles Shaughnessy) could lead to a temporary exit in the early stages of filming at Station 19.

GH rumors claim Cody’s past which connects him to Britt could drive her out of town for a while. If Cody faked Britt’s Huntington’s Disease diagnosis, how will she ever get passed something like that? Sure she will be thankful she’s a healthy young woman, but she will be furious to have gone through that.

Will Cody’s past have a hand in pushing Britt out of Port Charles? 

General Hospital Spoilers: Cody’s Secret Connection Made Britt Believe A Lie, Will She Ever Forgive Him?

Cody’s secret past

Cody’s secret connection to Port Charles extends beyond Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) and the old neighborhood. Cody Bell (Josh Kelly) arrived in PC with a strange interest in Dr. Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) and her father, Cesar Faison (Anders Hove).

General Hospital spoilers and rumors hint Cody has been leaving Britt in the dark about a major piece of HER life. Cody’s arrival made quite a splash, while the first impression he made was on Britt.

General Hospital recaps recall how Britt found the strength and courage within. She had to make a decision that could effect her future. With Jason Morgan’s (Steve Burton) support, Britt decided to face her fears. Britt was faced with the knowledge that she carries the genetic marker for Huntington’s disease; a disease passed down from her father, Cesar.

Britt’s Huntington’s Disease a false positive?

GH spoilers suggest Peter August (Wes Ramsey) thinks Britt should know the truth. Cody’s secret connection could have involved him working with Peter and Victor Cassadine (Charles Shaughnessy) in Victor’s grand scheme. Part of his scheme was luring Britt’s mom, Dr. Liesl Obrecht (Kathleen Gati) to a conference for Huntington’s disease. Victor knew she would do anything that involved learning more about her daughter’s diagnosis. As it turns out, it was a trap.

GH rumors claim Cody’s secret connection to Peter and Victor, as well as what Cody has done could be revealed in Peter’s cryptic message to his sister. Cody was curious about Cesar, who happens to be Britt’s father. Cesar’s ties to Peter, Liesl and Victor, may connect Cody to Britt. Britt’s Huntington’s diagnosis was a set up, Cody may have been the one to fake the results. He’s been holding back from her since they met, mysteriously interested in Cesar. Perhaps he wanted to know more about Peter’s father… as he may have been the one to put Cody up to faking her results.

General Hospital Spoilers: Peter Gives Britt The Gift Of Life, Truth Of Britt’s Huntington’s Disease Revealed

Peter August (Wes Ramsey) wasn’t known for his generosity and heroism. He let the chips fall as they may as the son of Cesar Faison (Anders Hove). Now he has a second chance at being a good brother. So, is Peter still alive? Or will Peter help Britt from beyond the grave?

Dr. Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) went through a rebellious phase. She was lying and scheming, while seemingly following in her father’s footsteps. Britt wanted nothing to do with mimicking Cesar’s toxic traits, therefore, she turned her life around.

Britt’s half brother Peter wasn’t as strong-willed as Cesar’s other offspring. At times it seemed as Peter was just like his father. He couldn’t fight it the way Britt did. The evil lived inside Peter while he destroyed the ones he claimed to love.

Is Peter still alive?

GH fans want to know the answer to this burning question; Is Peter still alive? While GH spoilers indicate his outreach to Britt, it’s likely his presence will come from beyond the grave.

General Hospital spoilers reveal Britt uncovers the meaning and purpose behind Peter’s mystery box. The box he left behind was specifically for Britt. She and Cody Bell (Josh Kelly) continue their mission to decode the secret meaning. Their shocking discovery is around the corner.

General Hospital recaps recall Peter’s past working relationship with Victor Cassadine (Charles Shaughnessy). They worked together against Britt’s mom Lie Obrecht (Kathleen Gati), Anna Devane (Finola Hughes), Robert Scorpio (Tristan Rogers), Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison), and more. At one point, their focus was to distract Liesl. Liesl was worried about her daughter after learning she carries the genetic marker for the incurable disease. She was determined to do anything to help, while attending a conference over seas was the plan.

Victor faked everything!

GH rumors speculate Victor faked Britt’s Huntington’s diagnosis. Peter has never done a damn thing for his sister while he was alive, however, his last gift to her could be the gift of life. GH previews and rumors hint Peter gives Britt the gift of life with the contents of that box. Blood is thicker than water, meaning, his professional ties to Victor don’t hold a candle to family ties.

Has Peter finally put family first? Will the box expose Victor for faking Britt Westbourne’s illness?

General Hospital Spoilers: Peter Exposes Victor, Britt Is Grateful To Her Brother

Peter Victor Britt

Peter exposes Victor! Dr. Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) has never felt the warm fuzzies for or from her half brother. Peter August (Wes Ramsey) was Britt’s evil half brother who inherited Cesar Faison’s (Anders Hove) traits.

General Hospital recaps revisit the havoc Peter reeked on the people of Port Charles. Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) and Maxie Jones (Kirsten Storms) were his main focus, and at one point Anna believed Peter was her son. Peter won Maxie over, however, Maxie would soon find out who Peter really was.

Family Ties!

Peter shares a father with GH Doc, Britt Westbourne. Although Peter was an evil, calculated, monster, he did have room in his heart for family. He always acknowledged his relationship to half sister Britt. She wanted nothing to do with him since he was just like their father Cesar Faison. Cesar and Peter were both cold, calculated, insane… the list could go on.

Peter tortured those he claimed to love. This includes the woman he asked to become his wife. Maxie Jones and their baby become his obsession. He would do anything, include kidnap Maxie, to get her and their baby alone. Britt and Maxie became close as Peter’s sister helped Maxie outsmart him. Ultimately, Peter’s “death” was a relief to all, even his sister Britt.

Britt and Cody make shocking discovery!

General Hospital spoilers reveal Britt and Cody will make a shocking discovery come time to figure out Peter’s hidden message. Peter left Britt a mysterious box and she’s determined to uncover the meaning. 

General Hospital rumors suggest that Peter’s last message to Britt will be a positive one. Britt has been struggling with her Huntington’s disease diagnosis as well as trying to accept her fate. She remains uneasy about her uncertain of her future.

GH rumors speculate Cody will help Britt decode Peter’s cryptic message and in doing so Victor Cassadine (Charles Shaughnessy) will be exposed). It’s been rumored that Victor faked Britt’s Huntington’s diagnosis, leading her and Liesl Obrecht (Kathleen Gati) to believe she [Britt] is dying. 

GH spoilers suggest Peter exposes Victor with his boxed message to Britt, meanwhile, in it she will find she has never had Huntington’s disease. Could it be that it was all a ruse so that Victor could reach some sort of twisted endgame with her mother? Will Britt find a new appreciation for her brother?

General Hospital Spoilers: Peter’s Mysterious Box; Peter August Is The Gift That Keeps On Giving

Peter’s mysterious box

Peter’s mysterious box was given to his sister Britt and she wants to know why.

General Hospital spoilers reveal Britt’s interests are peaked since her conversation with sister in law, Maxie Jones (Kirsten Storms). Maxie and Britt shutter at the very sound of Peter’s name, and rightfully so. And although Peter is dead, his eerie shenanigans live on in a box.

We can’t bring ourselves to call this sibling love since Peter August (Wes Ramsey) was incapable of truly loving another person. Typically when you are gifted something by someone as close as family or the like, it means that the two of you are simpatico. Dr. Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) received the furthest thing from brotherly love from her half brother Peter.

General Hospital recaps recall Maxie and Britt discussing the box that Peter gifted to Britt. She tells Maxie that for some reason a party of her held onto the box instead of tossing it. Britt admits she’s still a bit curious as to what’s inside. Dr. Westbourne comes to the conclusion that there must be some sinister reason her brother left this box with her. Perhaps something he wants her to know.

General Hospital previews and spoilers for upcoming episodes in October hint that Britt will need some help in decoding Peter’s message in his mysterious box.

GH spoilers suggest that Maxie still wants nothing to do with anything related to Peter. It looks like Britt will turn to Cody Bell (Josh Kelly) for help, and since he’s been interested in her father, Caesar Faison (Anders Hove) from the moment he landed in Port Charles, that’s reason enough for Cody to jump on board and figure out what Cesar’s son wants Britt to know.

Britt and Cody will make a shocking discovery once they figure out the meaning of Peter’s twisted game.
