General Hospital: Jeff Kober says goodbye to General Hospital and Cyrus Renault
Jeff Kober Says Goodbye to General Hospital and Cyrus Renault! Some people say that it’s been a long time coming. But I for one thoroughly enjoyed every scene with Jeff Kober as Cyrus Renault. While villains sometimes overstay their welcome in Port Charles, Cyrus was one bad apple who was so good at being bad that many GH fans couldn’t look away.
General Hospital recaps recall Thursday’s February 20th episode, and the edge-of-your-seat drama that freed Port Charles of a dangerous killer. Cyrus Renault walked into Port Charles pushing drugs onto Sasha Corbin and threatening Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and his territory. Soon enough Laura Spencer Collins (Genie Francis) gained two half brothers. Cyrus and his brother Martin Gray (Michael E Knight) revealed their relationship to the Mayor of Port Charles.
An almost-redemption story that never was resulted in a full-fledged serial killer story. Cyrus Renault became more lethal than ever when his spiritual awakening became severely misguided. Lulu, Sam, Dex, Michael, and the innocent people of Turning Woods fell victim to his twisted “healing,” some of whom didn’t make it out alive. There’s no turning back when a villain kills off characters like Sam and Dex. Sadly, General Hospital news reports confirm Jeff Kober’s GH exit, and that Cyrus Renault is dead. Damn Josslyn is a good shot. Great even. That girl’s got skills.
GH’s Jeff Kober Says Goodbye
According to GH news reports, Kober confirms his GH exit and says goodbye to Cyrus and his co-workers at ABC’s General Hospital. Reportedly, the Daytime Emmy winner expressed his thoughts on the end of his road as Cyrus. He told Soap Opera Digest how he feels as he lets go of his role as Cyrus and his time at GH. Kober explained, “You know what? I’m just now starting to process it because I shot five episodes on January 15th, and on January 16th, I flew to India for nearly a month and had all the experiences that one has when one goes to India for nearly a month. I miss going to work, I miss the people, I miss the process. I gotta tell you, I love acting on a soap. It’s so dangerous for an actor to let go and let the scene happen, and General Hospital gave me an opportunity to practice that letting go, day after day after day, and I relished that. And I will miss that.”
There’s no doubt that Jeff made the role of Cyrus Renault one to remember. He will go down as one of the best villains to ever come to Port Charles- he was just so good at being bad. He will be missed.
General Hospital’s Sonny, Jason, Sasha, Josslyn, Jack, and Anna
Sonny Retires and Jason joins the WSB! The people of Port Charles are accustomed to navigating through a life potential, yet impending danger. Organized crime has been an issue in Port Charles for decades, posing threats to even those who don’t lead a life of crime.
Even the most straight-laced, well respected medical professionals at General Hospital run the risk of adversity for their mob entanglements. Many times, those entanglements were created through chance, and not intentional. Basically, the innocent eventually get wedged into the crossfire.
Over the years organized crime became the main focal point in Port Charles. Eventually, life surrounding the staff and patients at General Hospital became a secondary to the mob. Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way. In fact, the Port Charles baddies are what drew me in and kept me hooked since the early to mid 1990s.
According to recent developments, General Hospital news and spoilers report that a vibe shift is on the horizon. GH recaps recall Sonny and Jason’s recent conversation. Understandably, michael’s tragedy prompts Jason to discuss an exit strategy. Sonny wants out of the mob business and now is the perfect time. Previously, Sonny and Jason discussed the inevitable. Yes, someday Sonny will leave the mob. GH rumors hint that Sonny Retires and Jason joins the WSB!
Is General Hospital Gearing Up For Sonny’s Departure?
Moreover, Sonny has now developed heart related health concerns. Then, add that with what just happened to Michael, on top of losing Morgan, and decades worth of danger and risk. I don’t know about you all, but I sense that this is a recipe for Sonny’s mob exit.
Sonny Retires and Jason Joins the WSB
But if Sonny leaves the mob, what will he do? What will he and Jason do? Of course those two can retire comfortably and not worry about generating income. It’s obvious that they’re set for life when it comes to finances. However, from an entertainment standpoint, what will send and Jason do if they leave the mob behind?
According to the latest General Hospital rumors, Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) and Jason’s friendship play a part in the shift. Additionally, Jack Brennan (Charles Mesure) has a hand in the changeover as well. This is where things get interesting. General Hospital news reports that Bernard has previously discussed retirement.
Back in 2022 General Hospital Blog shared Maurice’s statement regarding his General Hospital contract. Benard’s statement can be view in the article below. Basically, retirement has been on his mind for a long time. Regarding his 3 year contract that ended in 2022, Benard revealed that he honors his contracts and does not break them. Reportedly, Maurice’s contract was coming to an end at the time. The 3-time Emmy winner decided to sign another contract despite having thoughts of retirement.
General Hospital Recaps: Currently, the word around Port Charles is that Sonny and Jason revisit potential exit strategies. In the wake of Sonny’s Penthouse explosion, Jason reminded him of the importance of planning for the future. The Mob boss has already lost his son Morgan, and countless other loves one. Those close to him are potential targets every day of their lives. Not to mention that Jason and his loved ones are also on any enemy’s radar.
General Hospital Rumors: Maurice and Sonny leave the mob! …GH fans speculate that Sonny is ready to retire from the business. As they swirl around social media platforms, the rumors continue to build around Sonny’s new path. But where will that lead him? And what about Jason? Just because Sonny wants to retire, that doesn’t mean that Jason must follow in his boss’s footsteps. Instead, Jason may take on a whole new career.
Welcome To The WSB, Agents Morgan, Corbin, and Jacks
According to General Hospital spoilers and rumors, the show undergoes a vibe shift. Soon, the Port Charles premise will shift away from the mob and hone in on the WSB. At least that’s the latest speculation as GH fans brace themselves for how this all plays out.
Brennan Recruits Josslyn!
Evidently, Jack Brennan is interested Josslyn’s Private Investigating skills. The WSB Agent surreptitiously executed a test mission, and sent Josslyn out to follow the clues. Recently, Josslyn’s TV mama, Laura Wright spilled some tea to Steve Burton and Bradford Anderson. GH’s Carly Spencer was a guest on their podcast, The Daily Drama, and let fans in on some inside insight. Laura admitted that Carly hasn’t fallen for the charming and mysterious WSB agent. Instead, she mentions that their relationship is purely friendship at the moment.
Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) Joins The WSB
Additionally, General Hospital spoilers reveal an upcoming snag in this blossoming friendship. According to Wright, her character Carly, and Charles Mesure’s Jack Brennan face a disagreement. GH rumors point to Josslyn when it comes to the nature of their disagreement. Apparently Brennan wants to recruit Josslyn for the WSB. No joke, Josslyn fits the part perfectly.
Anna Recruits Jason (And Maybe Sasha Too!)
Moreover, General Hospital spoilers and rumors tease that Jason and Anna’s newfound friendship sets the stage for the (near) future. Interestingly, General Hospital rumors claim that Jason‘s working relationship with Anna grows. And as things start to wind down with Sonny’s organization, Jason finds a new home in the WSB! In addition, recent talk about Jason and Sasha fills the GH rumor mill with theories.
Jason (Steve Burton ) and Sasha (Sofia Mattsson) Become WSB Agents
According to recent General Hospital news and spoilers, Bradford and Steve discussed the possibility of a Jason and Sasha pairing. Previously, General Hospital Blog shared details behind the claims. GH’s Bradford Anderson and Steve Burton played around with the idea on an episode of The Daily Drama.
As far as Sasha and the WSB go, Sasha has just the right amount of edge to make that happen. Besides, don’t forget who her parents are. Sasha is the daughter of WSB agents Robert and Holly Scorpio. I mean, adventure runs through this girl’s veins.
Sonny RetiresAnd Jason Joins The WSB
Sonny (Maurice Benard) Suffers Another Heart Related Episode
Sadly, Sonny Corinthos is no stranger to risk, danger, and loss. New concerns about his heart health add another element of reason to leave the mob business. According to this week’s GH previews, Sonny has another episode with his heart. This only brings us closer to the inevitable. It’s time Sonny Corinthos retires from the mob. When Sonny leaves the organized crime business it’s likely Jason will move on from it as well. Hello WSB?
Can you see General Hospital’s premise shift away from the mob and gravitate toward the WSB? Just imagine… Port Charles finally gets a handle on organized crime in the city. Jason, Sasha, and Josslyn join Anna and Brennan as WSB Agents. This could get wild!
Michael Corinthos Up In Flames, Willow Burned by Nina and Drew
Willow’s Burned by Nina and Drew! Finally, Little Miss (Former) Goodie-Two-Shoes-Weeping-Willow is about to take some heat. Willow Corinthos is seemingly always the victim in various situations. Up until now, many GH fans found validity in her victim-hood.
Truly, life threw this poor girl some nasty stuff, but she kept pushing through to the other side. First of all, her biological mother is Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros). That fact alone is enough for me to pity Willow. Thankfully, Willow did not have to endure Nina since birth, but Harmony was there to provide all the childhood trauma anyone could ever need.
From cults and losing babies, to evil sisters, and developing leukemia while pregnant, Willow’s life hasn’t been easy. Somehow, she went from a hard knock life to living in luxury as part of the Quartermaine and Corinthos families.
Evidently, Michael Corinthos was Willow’s ticket out of her own personal Hell. Does Willow truly love Michael? I’d say so. Well, that is until Drew came slithering around. (Plus the writers totally effed this up).
General Hospital spoilers tease that Michael isn’t the only one going up in flames. That’s right, Willow’s burned by Nina and Drew! Remember that Nina and Drew have been sleeping together and neither of them have bothered to tell Willow. Additionally, GH previews show that Willow takes heat from Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy)
Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) was deceived. She fell for John Jagger Cates’s story when he first came to Port Charles. But little did she know that John was actually Agent John Jagger Cates, a sore spot from Sonny’s past.
According to General Hospital recaps, Steve Burton’s return as Jason Morgan opened up the current storyline. Carly and Jason display their true bond as they both risk themselves for each other. Jason didn’t hesitate to step up for Carly when Agent Cates threatened her freedom.
Carly Gives Herself To John Cates
General Hospital spoilers and previews indicate that Carly’s had enough. She and Jason thought that Agent Cates would cut Jason loose after he followed through on the Pikeman investigation. However, this isn’t just business for John Jagger Cates. Nope. It’s actually very personal. Right now Carly figures that John Cates has it out for Sonny. He wants Jason to get incriminating evidence against the Port Charles mob boss.
But, GH rumors hint it may not be Sonny Cates wants after all. John seems to really want to stick it to Jason regardless of who he uses as an excuse to put Jason through hell. Has Jagger been out to get Jason all along?
General Hospital star Ingo Rademacher joined the cast in 1996. His role quickly became a lead character as Jasper “Jax” Jack’s popularity soared. Over the years Jax as been front and center, and the love interest of many fellow leading characters.
Previous General Hospital news reports confirmed that Ingo Rademacher filed a lawsuit against ABC/Disney. This came after having been let go from his 21 year run on GH. His former employer enforced a vaccine mandate which Rademacher declined to receive. Therefore, he was let go from his role as Jax on Disney/ABC’s General Hospital.
General Hospital news and spoilers reveal that Ingo announced new details regarding his Disney case. His recent Instagram post reveals that his case will visits court this upcoming August.
“We have oral arguments scheduled in appellate court for early August for my case against Disney.”
Will GH Kill Off Jax?
Rademacher took to social media to openly express his grievances with ABC and Disney. That said, GH rumors tease that Ingo will most likely not return to the daytime drama due to conflict stemming from his 2021 GH exit.
Moreover, GH recaps recall that Jax left Port Charles in November of 2021 with no inclination toward a return. It’s possible that Jax will stay in Australia for the foreseeable future. But GH rumors speculate that the role will be killed off as opposed to recast.
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?
Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) reflects on her current situation as she fights to keep Dex alive. She fears that he will fall victim to her former step father, Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard). In addition, Josslyn worries that she’ll lose Dex forever.
GH recaps recall the complex nature of Dex and Sonny’s professional, and personal relationships. First, Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell) hired Dex Heller (Evan Hofer) to spy on Sonny. As time went on Dex began to develop a friendship with Sonny, and Michael questioned his original decision to take down his own father. That’s when the tables turned and Carly (Laura Wright) became involved. She suggested that Dex and Michael work to protect Sonny. Finally, Sonny has been betrayed. one thing led to another and now Dex’s life is in danger.
Meanwhile, Joss does some self reflecting after a night of drinking. General Hospital spoilers indicate that Josslyn turns to Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) for help. She has overstepped and regrets what she’s done. At this point, no one really knows what Sonny’s all about these days. But the one person who can figure it out is Jason.
General Hospital spoilers and rumors tease that Jason tries to help Joss as best as he can. Inadvertently, this is just one step closer to the truth about Dex.
There’s no doubt that breaking up is hard to do. Either you’re confident that it’s over and need to move on, or you’re unsure of what just happened between you and the one you love. Plus, there’s much more in between, and there’s two sides to every story.
Just yesterday Josslyn told her mom that she and Dex haven’t spoken since the breakup. That’s when Carly asked Joss what she’d do if Dex reached out. According to General Hospital spoilers and previews, Joss and Dex reconnect somehow. But there encounter isn’t exactly the time for gushing over each other and confessing how much one missed the other. Instead, Josslyn shoots down Dex and can’t even believe his plan.
Joss and Dex Reconnect- Will They Ever Get Back Together?
GH spoilers revealed that Joss may not be in board with Dex’s plan, but will she shoot him down for a second chance at their relationship? Josslyn has been madly in love with Dex from the start. Their passion and chemistry was the driving force for their romance. So, can they just let it all go like that with a snap of their fingers? If I had to guess, I’d say no. Odds are they these two will find their way back to each other.
Over the course of existence, society has formed a generalized opinion on the Modeling Industry. The elite group became subject to public scrutiny, stereotyping, baseless speculation and opinions, along with a strict list of prerequisites.
The ever-evolving Modeling Industry looks much different than it had all of those years ago. Still, the shift in the public’s opinion is seemingly minimal. Today, the uniquely talented individuals, or professional models (also known as Supermodels), remain subjected to unfair assessments and assumptions about their career. Sadly, Port Charles’s leading cosmetics company faces a new challenge.

Deception Cosmetics! Who Will Become The New Face Of Deception?
The company’s Spokeswoman, Sasha Gilmore, and her sidekick Cody Bell called it quits after Sasha’s last photo shoot. Unfortunately, the photographer was looking for more of an edgy look, and Sasha was as giving more sweet and wholesome.
GH recaps recall that Cody was as the first to throw in the towel. Then, Sasha got to thinking and decided that she’s done being under a microscope. Her days as The Face of Deception are over. As a result, Deception’s Executive Team seeks out a new Face.
Do you have what it takes to take on your dreams? Could YOU be the next Face of Deception?
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.
