Jason proves his loyalty to Sonny! The two have been at odds since Jason’s return, and Sonny couldn’t fathom why his best friend would stay away for so long. That’s when Sonny convinced himself that Jason was the enemy. Sadly, things haven’t been the same since.
General Hospital spoilers and rumors tease that Sonny and Jason’s differences resolve when Jason, Sonny, and Carly band together again to take down Agent Jagger Cates (Adam Harrington). The corrupt FBI Agent has Jason stuck between a rock and a hard place. Agent Cates didn’t hold up his end of the bargain although Jason followed Cate’s orders. He obtained the information about Pikeman, but John Cates won’t let this go.
According to GH spoilers and rumors, Carly may be free, but the war with John Jagger Cates is far from over. Jason, Sonny, and Carly band together to take down Agent Cates. The man has an axe to grind and he won’t stop until he finishes the job.
GH recaps recall that Agent Cates used Jason Morgan to get to Sonny Corinthos. In doing so he threatened Carly Spencer’s freedom. Now that she’s free, the three targets want to stop Jagger.
It’s about time that these three forces of nature join together again. So we hope that Sonny and Jason reconcile when they team up to eliminate Jagger Cates.
Agent John Jagger Cates came to Port Charles on a mission. He’s a blast from the past and hasn’t been to Port Charles in decades. So when he arrive last year he knew exactly what he was doing.
General Hospital spoilers and rumors tease that Agent Cates (Adam Harrington) has a bone to pick with someone in Port Charles. Despite his obvious hatred for Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard), GH rumors hint that Agent Cates has a bigger fish to fry.
Agent Cates Targets Jason Not Sonny
According to the latest GH rumors and spoilers, John Jagger Cates has it out for someone else other than Sonny. He used Carly as his excuse to keep Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) under his control. Holding Carly’s freedom over Jason’s head kept the FBI Agent in control. But now that Carly had giving herself up to Cates, his true intentions could be revealed.
Recently, new GH spoilers and rumors tease that Agent Cates used Carly, and now Sonny as his excuse to terrorize Jason’s life. Back in the day Agent Cares was known around Port Charles as Jagger. GH recaps recall a love triangle among Jagger, Jason, and Karen Wexler. Jagger went on to marry her but he always held animosity toward Jason because of his and Karen’s feelings for each other.
Moreover, GH rumors speculate that Cate’s hate for Jason runs deep because of a secret. Did Karen have Jason’s baby all this years ago? And did that child grow up to be Dex Heller (Evan Hofer)? 😳
Jason Morgan sure has heard a lot about one Mr. Dex Heller (Evan Hofer). Carly Spencer (Laura Wright), Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy), and even Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) have told Jason all about Dex.
Currently, Agent John Jagger Cates (Adam Harrington) has Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) under his thumb. Everyone knows that Jason isn’t one to be played. But Jagger Cates has just the right leverage to make Jason sit, stay, and roll over when he commands. According to GH recaps, Cates has Rico charges that he will gladly use to throw Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) in jail. Since Jason is as honorable as they come, he sacrifices himself to keep Carly out of harm’s way.
According to GH rumors Jagger has it out for Jason because of his history with Karen Wexler. Rumors even speculate that Jason and Karen had a child together. Unbeknownst to Jason, Karen had a boy.
General Hospital spoilers read that jealousy has taken over Agent Cates and it’s all directed at Jason… QUARTERMAINE. Jagger’s girl had an eye for Jason back then, and current climate shows that things haven’t changed. It looks like Jagger has a new crush and Jason is in his way yet again.
General Hospital spoilers and rumors tease that all of Jaggers doings lead a father and son together. Jason and Dex come face-to-face and there’s no telling what’s next.
You can deny it all that you want but more clues lead to a controversial theory. It seems that every so often soap operas love to play the “Who’s the Daddy? game. Despite Dex’s divulgence of his home life, GH fans speculate that there is a more complex story to be told.
According to recent General Hospital spoilers and rumors, another clue emerges from Jason Morgan’s (Steve Burton) return. Previously, General Hospital Blog shared theories surrounding Dex’s paternity. Specifically about Jason Morgan and Agent John Jagger Cates (Adam Harrington).
The latest article (above) provides a breakdown of clues that lead to a connection between Jason and Dex. Agent John Jagger Cates returned to Port Charles after three decades with Jason secretly in tow. According to GH recaps, Jagger admitted that he still holds a grudge against Jason. However, his beef is with Jason Quartermaine, not Jason Morgan. Back in the day, Jagger, Jason, and Sonny all had something in common… Karen Wexler (Cari Shayne).
Today, Jagger still can’t let the past go. He’s using Jason as his personal puppet by dangling charges against Carly over his head. What does he hate Jason (Quartermaine) so much? Apparently, Jason gets to the bottom of Agent Cates’s motives when he helps Joss protect Dex against Sonny’s wrath.
Is Dex the reason that John Cates has it or for Golden Boy?
Hear me out. On January 4th, General Hospital announced Steve Burton’s long awaited return as Jason Morgan. Co-stars Steve Burton, Kelly Monaco, and Laura Wright surprised fans during GH’s 60th anniversary celebration in Prime Time. From that moment, GH fans couldn’t put down all the possibilities for Jason’s new storyline.
Jagger Isn’t Just Any Old FBI Agent- He Has Ties To Port Charles
Then, on February 6th, GH brings back an iconic character, John Jagger Cates. Adam Harrington debuts as Jagger. The role was previously played by Antonio Sabato Jr. While any old FBI Agent would do, GH decides to bring back a character with history. This storyline involving Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and Anna Devane (Finola), Pikeman, and Valentin (James Patrick Stuart), could have sufficed with a random Agent. Instead, they brought back someone who has ties to Port Charles. Specifically Jason Quartermaine/Morgan and Sonny Corinthos.
Jagger’s Got Beef Over Karen, And Jason Can’t RememberA Thing
GH recaps recall that Jagger recently disclosed that his beef isn’t with Jason Morgan. Nope. He admitted that his problem was with Jason Quartermaine, the man Morgan was before the accident. Oddly enough, Agent Cates, aka Jagger, incessantly name drops his and Jason Quartermaine’s ex, Karen Wexler (Cari Shayne). He can’t seem to get over the past.
Like Father, Like Son
Moreover, other clues lead to the latest GH rumors. Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) pointed out the similarities between her mom’s best friend Jason, and Dex, the man Joss loves. Dex and Jason were both loyal to Sonny, and even more loyal to Carly Spencer (Corinthos). They’re both honorable men whose skills come in handy when a life is at stake. Is it a coincidence that Jason and Dex both had a hand in saving Dante’s (Dominic Zamprogna) life? Like Jason, Dex puts his own life on the line like he has nothing to lose. When in reality, they both have a lot to lose.
Overall, the timing of both Jagger and Jason’s return raised questions among fans. The writers could have easily brought a new character to the canvas. Instead, GH chose to utilize a role that has connections to Sonny and Jason, and the rest of PC. In addition, Agent John Cates admitted that he still can’t stand Jason Quartermaine, the man Morgan used to be. Another clue is that Jason confessed that he cannot remember anything from his high school days due to injuries resulting from his and AJ’s (Sean Kanan) car accident.
Dear Old Dad, Scotty Baldwin
General Hospital spoilers and rumors tease that Jason and Karen had a teen pregnancy. Most likely, Karen hid her pregnancy from Jason and almost everyone in Port Charles. So, how did she pull it off? Well, GH rumors tease that none other than dear old dad helped Karen cover up her pregnancy. Or Karen had a baby, where is the child now? Who is Karen and Jason’s secret child? One possibility has caused major debate among fans. Based on the latest GH rumors, today we know him as Dex Heller (Evan Hofer). Ironically, it just so happens that speculation around Dex’s paternity has been a hot topic among GH fans. GH recaps highlight Dex’s family history. His background seems blurry at best. Previously, we learned that he doesn’t get along with his brother’s. And his overall home life led him to stray from the family. According to GH rumors, Dex was adopted.
All of these clues paired with the fact that Soap Opera love a good “who’s the daddy?” story, leads to a highly possible outcome. Has Jagger’s resentment toward Jason lead him to have this vendetta?
Over the years it’s become apparent that Scott Baldwin (Kin Shriner) is no fan of Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard). In fact, the shady attorney dislikes the mobster because of everything that Scotty believes the mobster stands for. It’s safe to say that Scotty and Sonny are not and never were friends.
I don’t know about the rest of you, but I think that the 90s brought forth some of the most engaging and memorable storylines in Port Charles. General Hospital 90s recaps highlight the current front burner storyline. Jason Quartermaine (Steve Burton) and Jagger Cates (Adam Harrington) were two frenemies who were both crushing hard on the same girl. Eventually, Jason moved on, and Karen Wexler (Cari Shayne) became Jagger’s wife.
Moreover, Scott Baldwin and Jagger Cates have a few things in common. First, they both have decades old beef with Sonny and his organization. Secondly, Karyn Wexler connects Scott and Agent Cates because Scott is her father and John Jagger Cates was her husband. Sadly, Jagger and Karen were divorced, and she has since passed away. Evidently, their disdain for the PC coffee important due to Sonny’s part in Karen’s wild side.
Additionally, Sonny isn’t their only ongoing bad blood flowing through Port Charles. While Scotty despises Sonny and his organization overall (which would include Jason Morgan), Jagger takes issue with Jason Quartermaine. According to GH spoilers and rumors, Karen’s dad and Jagger both have it out for Jason Quartermaine, the Jason Morgan was before having been involved in a car crash with his brother AJ. Jagger has already admitted that his problem is with Quartermaine, not Morgan.
Scotty Helped Karen keep Dex From Jason
Previously, General Hospital Blog shared rumors that Jason and Karen are Dex Heller’s biological parents. Recent scenes brought about various revelations and even some clues. General Hospital spoilers and rumors tease that Jagger was brought back to connect some dots. Otherwise any FBI agent would’ve sufficed. Instead, it’s Jagger who has returned, and who holds a personal vendetta against Jason Quartermaine. In addition, Jason Morgan spoke of his last and admitted that he doesn’t remember anything from high school. And as we know, high school is the time that Jason was involved with Scott daughter Karen.
As things heat up and Port Charles, GH speculate that Scotty has kept a major secret. Did Scott Baldwin help his daughter cover up her teen pregnancy?
Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) is head over heels for Dex Heller (Evan Hofer). At first, they kept their relationship under wraps due to the nature of his business, and his connection to Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard).
General Hospital recaps recall Josslyn’s apprehension about her feelings for Dex. Growing up, Josslyn’s mom Carly was in love with a mobster. She spent almost her entire adolescence as Sonny Corinthos’s stepdaughter. So, one would think that Joss would be all too familiar with the lifestyle.
As we know, Sonny and Nina’s relationship caused a rift between Sonny, Carly, their son Michael, and her daughter Joss. Ever since he left Carly for Nina, Josslyn’s outlook on Sonny is much different than when she was younger. Still, she can’t help who she felt for and that he works for Corinthos. But what she can do is stand by him, worry about him, and hope he leaves that mobster life.
According to General Hospital spoilers, Josslyn foreshadows Jason and Dex’s fate when she continues to make comparisons between her boyfriend and her mother’s best friend. Ironically, they both happen to be Sonny’s right hand man. Joss points out that Dex is a lot like Jason. They’re both totally loyal, they risk it all for Sonny, and they’d never leave a good man for dead.
Agent John Jagger Cates (Adam Harrington) popped back into Port Charles out of the clear blue sky. One minute John “Brennan” was sniffing around Bobbie’s (formerly known as Kelly’s), then the next he whipped out his FBI badge and began flashing is all over PC.
Previously, General Hospital news reports confirmed that Adam Harrington joined GH’s cast as a past character. He took over the role as Jagger from Antonio Sabato Jr. The change caused a stir among General Hospital fans, and they took their concerns to social media.
So, why did General Hospital decide to bring back Jagger, aka, Agent John Cates? According to recent GH spoilers and rumors, Jagger is the string that ties some PC people together. Some find it interesting that Jagger returned around the same time as Jason, also while Dex Heller’s (Evan Hofer) is in question. When he first arrived in Port Charles, Dex’s family background was a mystery. Then, he revealed that he didn’t get along with his brothers, and his home life was pretty rocky. That’s when rumors really began to take flight. Suddenly, GH rumors claimed that Dex was adopted. And his biological parents are none other than Jason Morgan (Quartermaine) and Karen Wexler.
What do you think? John is displaying red flags when it comes to Jason. Agent Cates’s personal vendetta against Jason Morgan could very well be because of Karen… and Dex!
General Hospital Spoilers: Jagger Reveals Dex’s Parents
It was one day back in 2022 when Dex Heller (Evan Hofer) decided to leave everything behind and come to Port Charles. He risked it all to carry out a convert mission. And once he and Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell) sealed the deal, Dex Heller was to gather incriminating information against PC mob boss, Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard).
According to General Hospital recaps, Dex became Michael’s informant and Sonny’s employee and friend. Unbeknownst to Sonny, the developing bond with his newest right-hand man was built on a lie. Furthermore, his own son set the whole thing in motion. GH spoilers tease that the emotional complexity and true nature of these relationships tell of a long history. Apparently, Dex’s roots run deep in Port Charles.
Jason Morgan and Karen Wexler
GH comings and goings bring Jason Morgan back to the canvas. Along with Steve Burton’s return to GH comes with much speculation about Jason. The way things have been going, it’s looking more and more like Jason Morgan very well could be Dex Heller’s father. While many GH fans are intrigued by the possibility, the aspiring mobster’s mother is also in question. If Jason Morgan is Dex’s father, then who his mom?
Jagger Reveals Dex’s Parents
Looking back at Jason’s relationships, Karen Wexler’s name comes screaming at my mind. She was always torn between Jagger and Jason. And GH history recalls that Karen chose Jagger in the end. But wild GH rumors claim that their love triangle brought about a permanent reminder. Was Karen pregnant with Jason’s baby when she married Jagger? According to the latest GH rumors, Karen and Jagger gave her and Jason’s baby up for adoption.
The connections all make sense. Jagger is back and Jason is set to return in just a few short weeks. Sonny shipped Dex out of town, but Jagger just might tell Sonny (or Jason) exactly who Dex is. So do you think that Karen and Jason could be Dex’s parents?
Last week’s General Hospital brought the shock factor to its audience on many different levels. Obviously Spencer and Esme made us gasp, Avery Pohl’s unexpected exit, Nikolas and Ace’s return to Laura, and more contributed to the ultimately shocking storylines.
General Hospital recaps highlight Spencer and Trina’s life or death situation. Their families came together to help rescue them from Esme Prince. While it looks like Esme and Spencer are swimming with the fishies, GH news reports confirm that Nicholas Alexander Chavez will return as Spencer, but Avery Pohl’s exit is indefinite. Now Trina is traumatized after the event and losing Spencer. To be honest, I’m traumatized too lol. I want Esme back! It still boggles my mind that GH took this direction. But that’s for another post at another time.
Anna’s Taken Aback By Jagger
Meanwhile, Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) and Jordan Ashford (Tanisha Harper) engage in their own life threatening drama. The two find themselves in an FBI ambush as they try to crack a case of their own. That’s when Jagger showed up. General Hospital spoilers reveal that a blast from the past has come back. Those who watched GH in the early 90s know exactly who Jagger Cates is. However, anyone would be confused and shocked by this because todays Jagger isn’t the man who made the role an iconic piece of American culture and Soap Opera history.
According to GH news reports, Jagger was recast with actor Adam Harrington. While Antonio Sabàto Jr. helped create the role over 30 years ago, it’s been reported that Sabato Jr. was not asked to reprise the ever-popular the role. Now, the actor has come out to speak on the subject.
In a now-deleted Instagram video, Sabato Jr. addressed a statement about Jagger’s recent recasting. “I’m being bombarded with a lot of questions about this General Hospital thing. You need to know the truth from me and you need to know the only truth about what’s going on.”
Antonio Sabato Jr. Address Jagger Recast
There’s no denying that Antonio Sabato Jr.’s role as Jagger Cates took the GH fandom by storm in the early 1990s. Certainly, his face became recognizable across the world as General Hospital fans tuned in to see what’s next. Antonio addressed the early starved of the character, and Jagger’s worldly popularity. “At the beginning of my career, I started on a character that I truly, truly adore, that I created with Wendy Riche, the executive producer, and an amazing team of writers at General Hospital back in 1992. I was on General Hospital from 92 to 94, playing a character by the name of John “Jagger” Cates.
Jagger Cates Popularity
I’ve been asked by the fans by millions all over the world, not just in America and in North America, but all over the world, about coming back to General Hospital for 30 years. Now, like I said, I’m doing very well. I’m not begging to go back on the show. This is not about that. I have many careers. I’m still acting very well. I have a movie coming out. I have a lot of things coming out and I’m very proud of.”
Reflecting on his popularity as Jagger, and the irony that he was never asked to return, Sabato stated, “I’ve never been asked to come back on General Hospital for 30 years. The producers at General Hospital, ABC, and Disney, they know where to find me. They know where I am. The fans always ask me every single day, ‘Are you going back to General Hospital?”
Adam Harrington Steps In as Jagger Recast
Fast forward to this week. It’s 2024 and has been 30 years since Sabato Jr. played the iconic Jagger Cates. Suddenly, the news hit fans and Antonio like a brick. He was bombarded with questions from fans, asking about the recent GH casting. That’s when Antonio commented on Jagger’s revival, and the fact that he wasn’t asked to step back into the role. Instead, GH hired Adam Harrington to take over as the memorable Cates.
“They don’t even call him ‘Jagger’. They call him ‘John’ because they know that the character’s only been played by me ’cause it’s part of who I am. It’s my life. It’s a character that is really a big part of, of my soul that I dedicated my life. And that’s what it turned out to be. I gave everything I have to that character and I would still do. So, the truth and the fact of the matter is people say, well, ‘you ruin your career because you voted for this or political or this and that.’ I shouldn’t be hired on my political views. I should be hired on my merit, on my acting abilities because you know, that works.”
“So this is on them hiring a new person, which is fine. They could do whatever they want. But hey, but for all the fans around the world to speculate or to say, you know, I ruined my career and all this stuff, mo, that’s not it. So now you know the truth. I’m gonna leave this out there for you to see.”
According to GH News and spoilers, Antonio’s message was addressed in a now-deleted IG video. Please be sure to check back with us at GH Blog for the latest developments.
