Maurice Benard is a three-time Daytime winner for his role as Sonny Corinthos on ABC’s General Hospital. Benard joined the Soap Opera in August of 1993. Since then Port Charles has never been the same. Organized crime has become an ongoing problem on the local and even Federal level.
The Port Charles Police Department has their work cut out for them when it comes to PC’s most prominent mob boss. When he first arrive in 1993, Sonny was law enforcement’s number one priority. Today, the fact remains that Sonny gives the authorities a run for the money. He’s been arrested and detained, and even put on trial. But the PCPD and the Feds have yet to stick the landing.

Check out the latest GH previews for a look into what happens next!
The mob life has consumed many lives in Port Charles, especially Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and his right hand man, Jason Morgan (Steve Burton). The mob boss and his enforcer have had their work cut out for them since the 1990s.
Over the years the Port Charles kingpin and his enforcer have been to Hell and back for and with each other. Despite some arguments, a few fallouts, and a couple presumed deaths, their brotherhood bond always reconnected them. Danger lurks among Sonny, Jason, their families, and the rest of Port Charles as enemies threaten Sonny’s territory. Although no stranger to the violence, the latest attack left the Corinthos family shaken. Currently, Sonny’s son Michael (Chad Duell) is in critical condition after an enemy audaciously attacked his Penthouse.
According to General Hospital spoilers and rumors, Jason and Sonny prepare to strike back. It’s been a while since one of Sonny’s enemies hit this hard. Now all the reasons to get out of the business come flooding back.
General Hospital recaps recall the shocking moment when Jason sided with Tracy Quartermaine over Sonny, Carly (Laura Wright), and Michael. Expert Tracy emotionally manipulated Jason when she gave him a guilt trip about Monica (God rest Leslie’s soul). Still, it’s incomprehensible that Jason, “The Borg,” Morgan let his emotions take over. Essentially, Jason’s choice could have risked Michael’s life, so it’s a good thing Tracy was arrested.
Will Sonny Corinthos And Jason Morgan’s Lives Take New Paths?
General Hospital spoilers and rumors tease that Jason’s life heads in a new direction. Lately, Jason’s been spending a lot of time working with Anna Devane (Finola Hughes). The two of them have worked side by side despite their differences over Sonny Corinthos. Jason and Anna have gotten close recently, and some even say that they’ve gotten a little TOO close (if ya know what I mean 😉). Additionally, Jack Brennan (Charles Mesure) offered Jason a job with the WSB
GH rumors tease that Jason’s recent reconnection to his Quartermaine roots foreshadow a new path for the career criminal. First, he moved into the Quartermaine mansion with his son, Danny. Then, Jason sides with Tracy (Jane Elliot) to make Monica happy.
Meanwhile, Sonny has recently developed some health concerns. It seems like the nature of the business is taking its toll on the Port Charles mobster. In fact, if he stays in the business then it just might come down to do or die. Apparently, Sonny’s health and the Corinthos family’s recent tragedy foreshadow a new path as organized crime no longer suits Sonny’s lifestyle.
Do you think Sonny retired from the mob and Jason goes back to his roots with a brand new position with the WSB?
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.
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.
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
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!
Willow’s devastated about Michael! …Willow Corinthos (Katelyn MacMullen) destroyed her marriage to Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell) for his Uncle, Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison). Go figure.
According to General Hospital recaps, it all started with a Fourth Of July kiss. They talked it up to an innocent blunder, but then it happened again. Suddenly Willow found herself daydreaming of Drew. Meanwhile Willow‘s mom, Nina, and Drew were having a good old time, anytime and any place. Unbeknownst to Willow, Drew was sleeping with her mother the entire time he made subtle advances at Willow.
General Hospital spoilers reveal that Willow’s world blows apart (no pun intended) now that her’s and Drew’s secret is out. After Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) instigated combat, divorce for Willow and Michael is imminent. However, while Willow prepares for the worst, the unthinkable happens.
Willow’s devastated about Michael
Recent General Hospital previews indicate that Michael’s burned beyond recognition in an explosion meant for Sonny. Sound familiar? Anyways, Willow thought a cuddly fight with Michael was the worst of the worst. But soon she’ll find that a greater calamity puts things into perspective.
GH rumors hint that Michael is severely burned in an explosion and Willow can’t live with herself after cheating on him with Drew.
General Hospital Sneak Peek for Tuesday, January 7th, 2025: Tragedy strikes the Corinthos family! GH’s Michael Corinthos Burned Beyond Recognition?!
In November, General Hospital star Chad Duell confirmed his upcoming General Hospital exit. Chad joined the cast of General Hospital in 2010 as Carly and Sonny’s son, Michael Corinthos.
General Hospital fans are devastated after executive producer Frank Valentini revealed the plans for Michael’s exit. Previously reported General Hospital news and spoilers confirmed that Valentini has no plans to recast the role of Michael Corinthos. Therefore, a new actor has not been hired to take over when Chad Duell leaves the show. According to General Hospital spoilers, Chad makes his exit in early 2025.
GH’s Michael Corinthos Burned Beyond Recognition?!
Recent General Hospital rumors hint that tragedy strikes the Corinthos family. According to the latest General Hospital previews, a fire erupts and Michael calls out for help. Sonny and Jason hear his desperate cries as he’s being burned alive.
General Hospital spoilers reveal that Michael heads off canvas as actor Chad Duell takes a break from General Hospital. Previously, GH Blog shared reports that Frank Valentini confirmed there is no recast lined up for Michael. So, does that mean Michael Corinthos dies in the fire? Or Can Sonny and Jason save him in time?
Well that’s not cool! Let’s just say that there was so much potential with this actor, character, and storyline. Why would General Hospital kill off Dex Heller?!
Evan Hofer joined General Hospital’s cast in 2022. He came to Port Charles and immediately intertwined into the Corinthos family and all of their glory and gloom. At first, Michael Corinthos hired Dex Hellwr to work for him undercover. The assignment was personal for Michael, and eventually lines became too blurry and Michael called off the mission to take down his own father. Dex was ready to take on the task but become close to Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) during the process. Then, betrayal severed a budding bond that unexpectedly developed between Sonny and Dex.
Meanwhile, Dex was falling in forbidden love with Michael’s sister and Sonny’s step daughter, Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy). According to General Hospital rumors, GH had big plans for Dex. Many hints toward GH spoilers claimed that eventually Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) would discover that Dex was his son.
Evidently, Evan/Dex’s fan has was strong as General Hospital fans used social media fan pages to comment passionately about the character and the potential story to be told. Sadly, no GH fan theories will ever come to fruition. Furthermore, Joss and Dex fans had hope for an epic romance, but not that hope has been crushed by another one of GH Executive’s unpalatable decisions.
GH Executives Make Another Unpalatable Decision- GH’s Dex Dies
Suddenly, all of the daydreaming and social media theories came to a screeching halt after GH’s Friday the 13th episode where General Hospital’s Dex dies! General Hospital recaps recall Dex was stabbed and left for dead after breaking up a fight with some teenagers. Judy like Sam, Dex was seemingly fine and going to me a full recovery. That’s when sudden death struck both Sam and Dex as a result of recent out-of-left-field storylines.
First, I want to thank all of you for your continued support. Some of you have been here since the beginning, way back in April of 2011. Back then I was a married mom of one.
Back when I started GH Blog my daughter was 3 years old. Then, all of a sudden she’s 16! Time sure flies because her little brother is now 10, and turns 11 in May. Unfortunately, the marriage between myself and my ex-husband was troubled and I filed for divorce in 2022. I’m not sure how many of you are divorced, or divorced with kids, but I’ll tell you something- I had no idea the type of challenges I’d face. In fact, many divorced friends can’t even fathom what has come my way in the last two and a half years.
My Story- A Brief Summary- The Abuse And Illnesses
I was in an emotionally and psychologically abusive relationship since I was 18 years old. He was as my only “real” boyfriend, and by that I mean beyond high school. In fact, we met just after HS, when we were both 18. I can’t get into all of that stuff because I’m already starting to cry. Needless to say, Would’ve, Could’ve, Should’ve (TS), is my life motto now. Lies, manipulation, financial secrets, zero empathy, I was devalued and invalidated, ignored, and more which took a toll on my health. Emotional distress manifested into physical ailments, and the medical issues I already had were exacerbated by his constant emotional abuse. The manipulation caused severe cognitive dissonance. Furthermore, I’ve had full blown panic attacks where my hands involuntarily curled into a claw shape.
I was born with congenital heart defects and migraine disease. Yet he would poke and poke so that we would argue to the point where it felt like a 400lb person was sitting on my chest. In addition, I suffered severely from migraines my entire life. And in 2012 we were in the thick of our marital problems, and I was at my sickest point. I couldn’t even drive my daughter to school because on the way there at random I would get the visual aura and go blind. Immediately, a woosh of nausea would take over. Then, about 20-30 minutes later I would suffer from excruciating pain in my head. I’d throw up, I’d sweat and shake, my face, arms, and legs would go numb, and at any point I could be curled up on the bathroom floor, lying naked in my worst Hell.
Do You Suffer From Migraines?
If a migraine came on at any point before he had to go to work, he’d get mad, act extremely stressed and say things to me and make me feel bad about him having to figure out childcare for our daughter. Yes, I felt guilt for being sick. Well, he knew that once I got the visual aura, I had a 20 minute window to force myself to sleep, or spend countless hours in the type of pain that he couldn’t even imagine. Yet he still badgered me as I was racing to beat a ticking time bomb in my head (and entire body). And I would ask, “What has to happen? Do I have to be on my deathbed for you to give a sh!t?”
It’s weird because I would call him out at every chance I’d get for showing no empathy, or twisting my concern around on me. He’d blame me for something he did, or blame me for being upset with him for something he did. I was never heard, validated, or justified. The arguments never led to any resolution. Everything I felt and explained was minimized; simplified to its most basic form to make me sound like I’m completely ridiculous. And he never had my back. It was never husband and wife against a situation, but it more situation and husband against wife. I didn’t have the support of my partner. I would tell him that he doesn’t love me the way a husband should love his wife.
Cognitive Dissonance
There was always a darkness about him but it was so difficult to detect. He was a smiling comedian to the public- and even to me. But then he wasn’t. Behind closed doors I could be curled up in a ball begging him to stop- and he’d just tell me that I’m crazy. Or that I’m abusive if I yelled. And a couple times I even threw an object across the room. Today, I no longer blame myself. I know that what happened to me is called Reactive Abuse. And I’m sick of the fingers pointing at me for reacting to his incessant abuse.
Oh Em Gee guys, take a look at how poorly my articles were writtenback in 2013! ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️
Arguments would turn into full on meltdowns and panic attacks. And then I was told that I AM always yelling and have a foul mouth- because he’d push every button in my soul until I would explode in one way or another. He wouldn’t stop even when it was making me physically ill. So then I’d snap and use profanity, get wild and all that stuff lol. Plus, I’m Italian. My entire voice on a regular day is at the level of yelling. All jokes aside, I never knew that the things I’d call him out on since age 18 were collectively something real.
Truthfully, I hate that this comes out at this time when this word runs rampant in our society. I think the term is overused and misused at times. Yes, it’s Narcissism. I’m not going to delve into that here because you can find a million resources online that are better suited to inform the public on the topic. But narcissistic abuse is real. And covert narcissistic abuse is pure HELL. When they take family members who they KNEW never had your best interest, and team up with them to subtly torture you, and convince people that you’re the slime bag- it’s like living in my own personal Hell.
It’s Been Over Two Years, Let It Go…
Have you ever told the truth, and you knew from your heart that you were telling the truth, but no one believed you? Did you and your siblings ever stay home alone and possibly break a valuable object in the house, and you got blamed? But you know damn well you didn’t do it. What’s worse is that not only did you not do it, but you were the one that advocated to take precautionary measures to ensure the safety of the precious object? It could’ve been your mom‘s statue of Elvis Presley, like Screech from Saved By The Bell. I wonder how many of you will get that reference and smile. 😊
That’s what it felt like every time he didn’t have my back. Or every time I’d go to him with my feelings and the get blamed and insulted for feeling that way. And I was always wrong. He became home from work and told him something interesting that I found out that day, question my sources. Like I’m stupid, but then the next day someone at work were telling me exact same thing and suddenly he believed it. Deal with that for 22 years. No thanks.
Fast forward to post divorce, and it turns out that apparently there’s no freedom even when you leave a man like this. Not yet anyways. He’s become more angry and more vindictive than ever. He uses the kids to hurt me and does not care that he hurts them in the process. He wants what he wants, and he threatened them with the things they love like their sports, hanging with friends, connecting to the outside world, and ultimately keeping them from communicating with me when they’re on his time.
But if that wasn’t bad enough, this man actually lies and says that I am the one doing those things. He has brought me to court and filed a motions for parenting time, and falsely accuse me of being on drugs. The humiliation I felt and the fear I faced, although I knew I wasn’t on drugs was paralyzing. And he did all of this to gain control over the kids.
This man refuses to believe that introducing your children to two different women (with kids of their own, so shame on those women!) within a few months of moving out of your family home after 15 years isn’t going to affect the kids in the way that it has. He tells me that I put it in their heads. When we first moved out into separate apartments, he took one of our dogs, and I took one of our dogs and our cat. Suddenly, Salami (the dog I rescued and my son named) wasn’t at Dad’s house anymore.
My Kids Love General Hospital Too!
That’s when the kids told me that their dad had been keeping the dog at his mother’s home. My son adores that dog and he and his big sister looked forward to a sense of familiarity and comfort. When I address the issue, that’s when I was told that I’m full of it and that I put this stuff in the kids heads. My kids were scared because they didn’t know why their dad was trying to take them away from their mom. But he blamed me for their awareness of the situation. They were 15 and 9 at the time. Of course they’re going to be aware of what’s going on.
If you thought he’d feel shame or embarrassment after falsely accusing the mother of his children of being on drugs for his personal control, then you’ve never dealt with this type of monster. It’s ok, many people haven’t. Shockingly, (yet understandable), this only fueled him to keep going. One year later and he opened a custody investigation with claims that I violate our parenting time order. (He’s threatened the transportation arrangements that he initiated every time he doesn’t get his way- because he knows the kids and I don’t want it to change). He’s also formally accused me of being on drugs for the second time! And he claims that I violate the court order when in actuality, he is the one who goes back on his word. He breaks agreements with me, does not co-parent in good faith, and vindictively keeps the kids my family events.
For example, the kids, and I had to attend my nephew’s First Holy Communion. Unfortunately, it landed on a Sunday that was my ex’s parenting time. On Sundays the parent who has the kids has them until 6 PM. So I had asked if I could get the kids at 10:30am because of the event and he said yes.
A day or so later we got into an argument and then suddenly he tells me that I’m not picking up the kids until 12:30pm. The event started at 1 PM. He already knew the name of the venue, and calculated the time that it would take for me to get there. I told him that’s not enough time and that the kids would have to get ready. He told me to have our 15-year-old daughter bring her clothes in the car and change. It got so bad that he told my daughter he would block his door to his apartment so that they couldn’t leave.
LIES, LIES, and MORE LIES!
Needless to say, when it comes time to holding up his end of the bargain, he doesn’t. Not only do I get screwed out of that parenting time, but he flips it around and says that I’m trying to abduct my own children. Such as on a holiday that he had last year because I WAS NICE AND AGREED TO SWAP- but then says we never had an agreement. And that’s what he submits to the court. Then, I have to fight like Hell for the truth to be heard. It’s absolutely exhausting and time consuming, and my work has severely suffered. At the end of the day, I know the truth will prevail. But to live this way every day, is emotionally and psychologically exhausting.
Skills Of A Covert Narcissist- Acquiring Flying Monkeys
My sister schedules play dates with my son and hers on my ex-husband’s days. One time she wanted to take my son to a certain place and I had said no, and told her that I’m not comfortable with him being there without me. I am a mother and her sister for crying out loud. So one day, I hear my nephew (her kid) talking on PlayStation with my son. He asked him if he’s excited for Thursday. My son had no clue and he asked, “why, what’s Thursday? Then my nephew asked my son if he’s at his mom’s (me) house, and my son said yes. That’s when I chimed in and asked my seven-year-old nephew at the time, “yeah, what’s Thursday?” he got all tripped up and said that he had to go.
Long story short, my sister went against a MOTHER’S wishes- her own sister mind you- and taught her seven-year-old to lie to adults. She taught him to be a sneaky little freak and it makes me sick. God forbid she got the chance to sneak away with my kid and something happened?! What then? Who does that to their sister? I would love to blame my ex-husband for this one, but he knew our entire lives that my issues with my sister go much deeper than the typical sibling rivalry. So used her (his flying monkey), and the situation against me.
Emotionally, This Is Exhausting
Imagine going through a divorce and then imagine not having support even from your own sister. Emotionally, this has been a scary ride and I just want it to be over. I’m still facing all of his parenting time allegations along with extreme financial problems on top of the emotional and psychological effects of his taunting and harassment. Did I mention that he taunts me in text messages? He tells me to get a man. And he tells me to have fun with and “George Glass,” (Brady Bunch reference to an imaginary boyfriend), he taunts me when he files motions against me and says, “it’s not over,” and “there’s more coming.” he also taunts me about paying my bills. After so many years of this, my body, mind, and soul is in fight or flight mode.
Incessant Messaging And Panic Attacks
Every time he sends me a message it’s a manipulative tactic to set me up. Lately he’s been messaging me every single day, pretending that he doesn’t know the pick up arrangements because he filed a motion to change parenting time. He wants to go one week on, and week off with the kids. And the kids and I have repeatedly told him that we cannot go a week without seeing each other. He harasses me so that I stopped looking at the app, and I tell him to stop messaging me unless it’s an emergency. Then he tells the court that I’m an unreliable parent because I won’t check the app fast enough.
In his motion last year he initiated that we only speak through this court ordered app. But if I don’t answer him fast enough, he goes through our daughter, or calls my father. All while his mother sent me a cease and desist letter a year ago, stating that I can’t come near her or talk to her. This came about after my daughter and I called her one night and tried to get her to help us with her son. That’s when he was threatening the kids with their sports and things like that because they weren’t ready to move on with his new life after mere weeks.
Can You Help GH Blog To Produce Fun And Fresh Content? ➡️HERE’S HOW⬅️
So she hung up on myself and my daughter (her own granddaughter), so of course I started texting her to finish what the hell was on my mind. Ad a result she cried harassment. So he expects my dad to bow to his every whim, but his mother has put up such a barrier between the mother of her grandchildren and her entire family. So how is that good for the kids?
Like I’m Some Sort Of Monster…
His sister took my son and hers to a movie theater. My daughter told me that they were there so I stopped in to see if I could say hi and use the restroom on my way home. I found out the next day that my ex sister-in-law saw me there told my son and hers that they had to bolt. They left the movie that they were going to see and went to a different movie theater and had to see something else. Then my son was uneasy because he wonders why this woman he supposed to trust is running away from his own mother- like I’m some sort of monster.
I can go on and on and type deeper into every aspect of my life. But I’m not here to bore you, or to throw my own pity party. I’m here to entertain you with discussions about our favorite Soap Opera and the beloved actors and characters we all love.
MY PROJECT, MY WORK, created in MY MOTHER’S MEMORY…
I have a big fight ahead of me still, and I thought you all should know why my content production has slowed down. So here’s the details on what’s happening with GeneralHospitalBlog.com…
Meanwhile, during all of this I discover that he’s been hacking into my WordPress Dashboard (where I create my GH Blog content), my Business Meta (Facebook and IG) accounts, my Google Business accounts, and he has gotten my business profile suspended from Google Business Profile. Resulting in devastating financial loss.
Fighting For The Rights To My Website And All Affiliated Accounts
I made a police report last May and he was charged with two separate felonies. Unfortunately, a complete misrepresentation of the case led to the dismissal of charges. The judge declared that this could be a marital asset and that my ex-husband could have every right to be logging in to my accounts. This only inflated his already dangerous ego, and the situation has calamitously impacted my business, and ultimately my livelihood.
Fighting For What’s Mine- My Kids, My Career, And My Sanity… and so much more.
I have spent the last year and a half fighting for what’s mine. My kids, and my job- which are the two most important things to me. He knows exactly how to hurt me. Sure, I needed some help in 2011 to get this thing going. He helped with tech issues and that’s about it. But it was never considered his, not once. So much so that we did not even mention this in the divorce decree because there was no argument of who this website and all of the affiliated accounts belongs to.
GH Blog Is A One Woman Show
Every single word written is mine and mine alone, as I am the only author in the last 14 years. Foolishly, part of me still trusted him to help me with tech support. For some odd reason at the beginning of the split I still had my irrational faith in him. (Which is why it took me 22 years to leave him). Then, he washed his hands of having any involvement in the website, and refused to help (tech). In fact, there are emails to our divorce lawyers to prove it. And those emails were sent because I told him that we needed to sit down with our lawyers and a professional Web Developer before he made any changes.
Drama You’d Think Was Straight Out Of Port Charles
I knew then that I couldn’t trust him to actually remove himself from all access. He’s a hacker by profession, well, elements of his career hack open the door for him to learn all the tricks of the trade. A funny little detail we used to joke about is that I used to call him SPINELLI because of his hacking skills. So, I knew that he would never actually cut all of his connections to the site.
I was right, and my ex husband left secret access points for himself that will be so difficult for me to find, and even more difficult for me to prove. Now I have to go back to court. I filed a motion to Intervene To Protect Assets, even though this was never a marital asset in the first place. In fact, the website used as my job to calculate my child and spousal support.
Currently, my ex husband taunts me about my career and holds it over my head as if he has the rights to it- which isn’t the case but I have to fight for it. Here’s a little background info on how this man operates. He has been getting emailed every purchase I make at Kroger for 2 1/2 years. He set up his email to my Kroger alt ID that is used for rewards. Then he lies and says it’s been like that since marriage.
Nope. Not Port Charles, Sadly.
However, that isn’t true, and even if it were, he was still receiving emails of my every Kroger purchase- including medications, and never thought once to maybe tell me about it? He types in my number at Meijer for the M Perks account (that I have never used, and we never used as a married couple), two years post divorce. All while getting gas in his fiancé‘s truck, while he’s with his fiancé. Like, use your own number, dude! Or hers!
Glad I Got That Off My Chest…and it’s not even the half of it!
Well now you know a lot of what I’ve been dealing with. And the bottom line is I cannot survive financially while my career faces this uncertainty. Over the last year I’ve picked up waitressing jobs and applied for jobs in Human Resources (my bachelor’s degree). But it’s difficult to find and keep a job when I pick the kids up from school every single day. Two kids, two different schools, and getting them to separate sports takes a lot of time from the typical work day. It’s been an uphill battle trying to find something that is flexible.
Aside from all of that, General Hospital Blog is my life second to my children. I have put so much work into this project- and my main motivation for creating General Hospital Blog is because of my late mother. She loved the show and the actors so much, and she’s the reason I watch. I know she’s so proud of me. ❤️
The General Hospital Blog was originated in 2011. My love for the show, and what it represents in my life, heavily contributed to the blog’s creation. My mom was always an avid ABC Soap Opera fan, and she and I bonded over General Hospital. I’ve been a fan since the 1990s when I’d watch religiously with my mom. Sadly, my mom passed away in 2008 and I no longer get to share this with her. But before she passed, we made it to a few GH fan events. Those memories will last a lifetime.
Additionally, my love for writing, along with my major fan-girl status, got me thinking that I should start a blog! Over 13 (my lucky number) years later and here we are! I am so grateful for General Hospital, the fans, and my supporters over on General Hospital Blog.
Fast forward to today and I am a single mom with two wonderful children who love to watch GH with me. I bounce ideas off of them and they throw in their takes on what’s gonna happen next. The time consuming nature of the content leaves little time for much else. But thankfully GH is something I can share with the kids on a certain level after homework, meals, sports, and recreation! Writing, marketing, website development, tech support, editing, image and video editing, is all part of this one woman show.
General Hospital Blog needs your support to help continue to make fresh and relevant GH related content. Ultimately, the continued support of our GH Blog fans is what keeps this community going. Please consider sending a donation of any amount because every little bit helps. I love sharing the GH fun with you all. Thank You- it means more than you know.
Are Alexis and Carly new rivals?! Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) continues to rot away in Pentonville. Meanwhile, the woman who’s protecting the real murderer gets whined and dined by another man.
General Hospital spoilers tease that a new rivalry is brewing in Port Charles. Over the years the people of Port Charles have gone from butterflies in their stomach to thorns in their side when friendships and relationships go south. It’s no secret that Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) isn’t the ideal image of female friendship as we know it. Honestly, Carly doesn’t tolerate pettiness. She’s as real as they come and many feel threatened by her confidence. Furthermore, some may even be jealous of Carly and the way men seem to flock to her to become her most trusted companion.
General Hospital rumors tease that Alexis becomes Carly’s biggest critic. Jealousy is evident when Alexis turns green over Carly. It’s apparent that Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) will do whatever it takes to protect Carly. Ultimately, Sonny won’t let Alexis rot for his crime but he sure is taking his sweet old time to come forward and set her free.
GH rumors hint that Alexis and Carly are new rivals after Carly protected the man who put Alexis behind bars.
Sam’s Death Destroys Alexis! If only Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) would have left that gun alone in the first place. Of course a mother is going to protect her child. On the other hand, Molly (Kristen Vaganos) blames Kristina (Kate Mansi), and the real person to blame is Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard).
We could go back and forth all day long with the what ifs and should’ve, would’ve, could’ve debates. Don’t forget that Jagger Cates (Adam Harrington) might be the victim, yet he was no innocent victim. But, no matter how Sonny, Ava, Kristina, and even Alexis played things out, the option for a redo doesn’t exist.
One of Port Charles’s brightest attorneys is facing murder charges. Alexis Davis wears many hats in her busy life, but she’s a First and foremost a mother.
Sam’s Death Destroys Alexis
Will her selfless act to protect one daughter cause the death of another? According to General Hospital spoilers, Alexis continues to put her freedom on the line to protect her daughter Kristina. Sadly, with protecting Kristina comes with the fact that Molly and Sam will risk themselves to protect their mom. GH rumors tease that Alexis has blood on her hands. And it isn’t Jagger’s.
Sad news has hit the daytime television community as General Hospital star has passed away. Reportedly, American television actor and General Hospital star Ron Hale dies at age 78.
According to General Hospital news, Ron Hale joined GH’s iconic cast in 1995. Before he played a mobster’s father, Ron Hale was known for his work on Ryan’s Hope from 1975-1989. Then, Hale joined General Hospital as Mike Corbin, and remained in the role until 2010. He retired in 2011, shortly after his GH exit.
According to the latest GH news reports, Hale passed away on August 27th, 2024. He was survived by his nieces and nephews. Lori Brown (Janet Brabham), Max Brabham, Erin Wilson (Laurens) and Marc Brown (Betsy) mourn their uncle’s loss.
Rob Hale received two Daytime Emmy Awards for his role as Dr. Roger Coleridge on Ryan’s Hope. But his time on General Hospital as Sonny Corinthos’s father, Mike Corbin, remains the longest in his acting career.
General Hospital Blog keeps Ron Hale, his family, and the rest of his loved ones in our prayers. Memories of his time as Mike Corbin are some of my first GH memories when I began watching in the early 90s. May Ron Rest In Peace.
