Reportedly, Sonya’s friend and producing partner Tyler Ford accepted the award on her behalf. According to news outlet TMZ, Sonya’s brother Robbie Eddy spoke out regarding his sister’s posthumous Emmy win. He mentioned that the family wasn’t notified that she’d be receiving the honor.

General Hospital Spoilers: Réal Andrews Back On Set, Teases Taggert Takes Down Cyrus Renault

Marcus Taggert (Réal Andrews) and Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) have always have always been enemies. When looking back on the past, these two men have been at the opposite ends of the law, even when Sonny was not even breaking the law. Taggert wanted to take down Sonny and it didn’t matter who or what got in his way.

Over the Winter, Taggert surprised Sonny, Jason, and the rest of the 1990s Port Charles crew when he returned to the city with a purpose. Although Sonny immediately thought Taggert was back to come after him, this time that wasn’t the case.

Sonny and Taggert are actually on the same page this time around, with a common enemy. Taggert’s untimely “death” got in the way of these two bonding over a common cause.

This Summer, Réal Andrews returned to The set of General Hospital, after General Hospital rumors and spoilers suggested that Taggert wasn’t really dead. General Hospital rumors insinuated that he had faked his death as part of a grander plan against Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober). Those rumors just so happened to come true.

General Hospital news reported that Réal Andrews was back as Taggert, while General Hospital spoilers reveal he was the the one on the other end of DA Jordan Ashford’s private phone calls from her burner phone. Now that Taggert has shown his face in Port Charles, they must be careful that Cyrus doesn’t spit him. More people know Taggert is alive, and ironically enough, he is getting help from Sonny Corinthos and Jason Morgan (Steve Burton)- and we cant forget Epiphany Johnson (Sonya Eddy) sticking her neck out to help them all.

Jordan Ashford (Briana Nicole Henry) warnedTaggert to stay hidden or he wouldn’t blow the entire plan. He was already scene by Jason and now Epiphany and Sonny also know he’s alive. Taggert stumbled upon Julian Jerome (William deVry) unexpectedly as he and Nelle Benson (Chloe Lanier) were arguing about Wiley (Erik and Theo Olson).

General Hospital news and spoilers hint that it’s about time Taggert shows his face again in Port Charles- this time, he’s ready to take down Cyrus! Andrews recently shared an IG story filing himself walking through the halls of Prospect Studios. Andrews then added to his IG story, asking fans if Taggert should kick Cyrus’ butt. So far, 98% of fans have voted “YES” on Andrews’ IG story poll.

It looks like Réal Andrews is just as anxious and excited to take down Cyrus Renault as his character, Marcus Taggert! Andrews is shown in his IG pic alongside his friend and co-star, Maurice Benard. Although enemies on screen, these two are life long friends in the real world. General Hospital rumors suggest some of that tea life friendship will rub off on each of their GH characters, resulting in a Corinthos/Taggert truce.

General Hospital Spoilers: Britt Gets Back To Her Roots, Revives The Meaning Of The Name “The Britch”

Dr. Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) arrived in Port Charles back in 2012, with an attitude that would leave a mark.

The last time we saw Britt, she wasn’t exactly angel material, but she definitely had come a long way since debuting her attitude and down right bitchy personality, resulting in the nickname, “The Britch.” Britt was responsible for driving Robin Scorpio (Kimberly McCullough) to the brink, emotionally tortured Sabrina Santiago (Teresa Castillo), along with seducing Patrick Drake (Jason Thompson), and much more questionable behavior.

Britt Westbourne still has an edge to say the least, and when she left Port Charles a few months back, she was a little softer than when she arrived in 2012. She didn’t do a total 180°, she still has her tricks up her sleeve like the one she started to pull with Julian Jerome (William DeVry). But instead of exposing Julian, she slept with him instead. Britt’s relationship with her mother had gotten more peaceful throughout the years, but when Liesl (Kathleen Gati) was accused of crimes committed by Peter August (Wes Ramsey), Britta didn’t have her mother’s back.

Britt is back and General Hospital spoilers reveal she will play a large role in how Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) and Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) take down Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober). General Hospital spoilers and rumors claim Jason will focus on Britt and how she runs the hospital. He knows she is under Cyrus Renault’s orders, but he believes she is the key to taking him down.

General Hospital spoilers show Jason and Epiphany Johnson’s (Sonya Eddy) friendship grows as she looks out for Jason’s interest while Jason protects the people of General Hospital. With Epiphany’s help, Jason will have Britt right where he wants her.

General Hospital Spoilers: Cyrus Gives Britt Authority To Appoint New Head Nurse, Make Room For Brad Cooper

Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) is back at General Hospital and is stronger than ever. Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober) has appointed Dr. Westbourne the new Chief of Staff at GH. With Britt’s new role as an authority figure, the hospital and it’s staff is at her mercy. Britt has always been one to seek control and now Cyrus has given her the opportunity to make the rules.

General Hospital spoilers reveal a new Head Nurse is about to take over Epiphany Johnson’s (Sony Eddy) position, and the possibilities for a replacement are endless.

Brad Cooper (Parry Shen) and Britt Westbourne have been BFFs for years. The two have a lot in common with their devious ways and scheming plots. Brad Cooper is currently serving time in Pentonville for his involvement in the kidnapping of Wiley Corinthos.

General Hospital comings and goings say the door has been left open for Parry Shen to return to the set of GH and tie up the loose ends of the Wiley kidnapping saga.

General Hospital rumors suggest that Brad will soon be getting. released from Pentonville, and will need to find a way to make ends meat. Britt and Brad are tight, and if Brad needs a favor, Britt will be there. General Hospital rumors claim Britt will shock Port Charles when she splints ex-con, Brad Cooper as the new Head Nurse at General Hospital. Britt and Brad are a dangerous duo, and under the ruling of Cyrus Renault, the residents of Port Charles have a lot to worry about.

The future of General Hospital is at stake as Cyrus Renault’s plans for the hospital are not in it’s best interest, but the interest of Cyrus himself and his criminal activity. Will Epiphany, Elizabeth Webber Baldwin (Rebecca Herbst), and the rest of the GH staff be able to stop Cyrus before it’s too late?
