General Hospital’s Maurice Benard
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.
Earlier this week, General Hospital Blog reported the latest GH comings and goings news regarding a brand new role on the 59 year old daytime drama.
General Hospital news and spoilers reveal Evan Hofer has joined the cast of General Hospital in a role news outlets have referred to as the new “Jason.” Hofer will not replace Steve Burton as Jason Morgan but instead he will arrive in Port Charles looking for work. The line of work he will eventually fall into aligns with that of Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and his former right hand man.
General Hospital spoilers reveal Hofer has opened up about his new role on ABC’s General Hospital as Dex. In a recent Instagram post, Evan shared sentiments regarding his GH debut. “So excited for Dex’s journey begin… Tune in next week! Ps. Loving the hot takes, keep ’em coming! #generalhospital”
General Hospital, Y & R, Days Of Our Lives: Beyond Salem, Stone Cold and the Jackal, and Port Chuck, are just a few of the reasons why Steve Burton is such a beloved actor. But he is best known in his iconic role as Jason Morgan in ABC’s GH.
Sadly, General Hospital fans were devastated when GH news confirmed Steve’s GH exit. It seems that Steve and Kelly Thiedbaud were headed down a news storyline path, when once again, Jason Morgan “dies.” Previously, General Hospital spoilers revealed that he, along with co-star Ingo Rademacher who played Jasper “Jax” Jacks, were let go over a vaccine mandate. Reportedly, the mandate was implemented by Disney/ABC Network. Fast forward several months and General Hospital news and spoilers reveal that Steve Burton has moved on from the 59 year old daytime drama and has joined the cast of Days Of Our Lives: Beyond Salem.
Steve Burton Shirtless With New Tattoo
General Hospital spoilers reveal a little look into his personal life. On April 12th, Steve shared a selfie which showed off his arm tattoo. The photo received comment from co-star and friend, Chad Duell (Michael Corinthos). Duell wrote, “Digging the tats Steven ????????.” It looks like Steve has had this tattoo for a few months, but has recently made his ink the focal point of some of his IG posts.
According to GH news reports, Steve recently shared a photo with his tattoo artist. The photo displays his new arm tattoo, and Burton captioned the pic, “legend in the tattoo biz, Joel Bones.”
General Hospital Blog would like to extend our encouragement to Steve. We absolutely LOVE your new ink and don’t believe for a second that a tattoo would hinder you from landing roles. Many of the actors have tattoos. In fact, one actor that comes to mind is Jason Thompson (Patrick Drake). Others include, Tyler Chistopher (ex-Nikolas Cassadine, GH), Robert LaSardo, who not only played Manny Ruiz on GH, but has a long list of acting credits which include CSI: Miami. LaSardo also collaborated with Clint Eastwood and Bradley Cooper in the movie, The Mule,Days star Landon Archey (Eli Grant), Lauren Koslow (Kate Roberts, Days), Kamar de Los Reyes (Antonio, OLTL), along with many more.
GH Fans On Steve Burton’s Tattoo: Let’s Stay Positive
GH news reports reveal that some fans have freaked out in the comments. Some claim that Steve’s tattoo will prevent him from acting (particularly returning to GH). Although most comments were positive and encouraging, a few nasysayers had to share their not-so-positive opinions. We see no reason why Steve’s new ink would ever prevent him from working in the acting industry. In fact, he already landed a new role on the 5 episode series, Beyond Salem. Way to go, Steve! We LOVE your new tattoo! Fans can check it out below!
The relationship between Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) is very controversial among the people or Port Charles, especially Sonny’s family, as well as the General Hospital audience.
Die hard GH fans are extremely bent over the end of Sonny and Carly Corinthos’s (Laura Wright) marriage. The super couple has been iconic throughout the years, making them one of the most popular daytime couples in history. Now that Sonny is with Nina, social media outlets are buzzing with discussion with heavily opinionated comments.
General Hospital spoilers reveal Sonny and Nina grow closer in the next few weeks, starting with an intimate little dance at the bar.
Fans reacted online immediately follow the scene on today’s episode of General Hospital. We want to know what you think! Are you digging Sonny and Nina’s romance or does it make you want to vomit?!
Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen) is staying strong amidst all the drama and heartache that has been bestowed upon her.
Willow has not had the easiest of upbringing. Her “mother” Lorraine Harmony Miller (Inga Cadranel) wasn’t always there for Willow, she got herself involved in illegal activity which was a result from joining the Dawn of Day cult. Despite everything Willow has been through as a result of her mother’s sketchy past and present, she still declares her love for her mom at her bedside. She knows that Harmony has committed murder but she wants answers.
General Hospital spoilers and previews indicate that Willow has another chance to speak to Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright). Recent General Hospital previews show Willow pleading with Carly to tell her the truth about what happened with Harmony. She pleads, “whatever it is, just tell me!” At this point, Carly knows that Harmony has killed both Neil Byrne (Joe Flanigan) and his brother Brendan (Joshua Coxx). She also knows that Willow is not actually Harmony’s biological daughter and that she has some past ties to Nina Reeves.
General Hospital rumors suggest that Carly will tell Willow as much as she knows for now but when Carly puts the pieces together and connects the dots between Harmony, Willow, and Nina, Carly will likely keep the secret.
Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) has some guts to go after the son of the man she claims to be in love with. Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and Nina share a grandson and Nina is fighting for visitation rights against Wiley’s father Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell) and his adoptive mom, Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen).
General Hospital spoilers reveal Nina and Sonny grow closer despite her attempt at taking Michael and Willow down in court. Her lawyer, Scott Baldwin (Kin Shriner) knows his way around the law but that doesn’t mean he’s a voice playing dirty.
General Hospital previews indicate that Scott is preparing Nina for an all out war in the courtroom. Sonny has blown off not only his ex-wife, Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright), but his son Michael as well. Nina seems to be coming first these days, even when his grandson Wiley’s well being is at stake.
Nina sticks to her guns and fights for her rights as Wiley’s biological grandmother. GH spoilers and rumors claim Nina won’t have much of a leg to stand on when it turns out she isn’t biologically related to Wiley’s mother Nelle Benson (Chloe Lanier) but in fact she is blood related to his adoptive mother Willow!
Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and his relationship Damian Spinelli (Bradford Anderson) has always been one of mutual respect but also an awkward dynamic.
It was difficult for Sonny to see past Spinelli’s goof-ball exterior, even when Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) would vouch for Spinelli’s value as a cyber genius. Over the years, Spinelli has proved himself worthy time and time again after solving mysteries and getting the Corinthos family out of numerous risky times. Although Sonny understands what Spinelli brings to the table, the two were basically only in contact when Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) was around to connect them.
General Hospital spoilers reveal Sonny and Spinelli will share an unexpectedly tender moment. These two don’t have a lot in common especially now that Jason is gone. But something bring be a these two together according to recent GH previews and spoilers.
The month of May has snuck up is like Christmas music the day after Halloween. It got here fast but we are ready to Spring into new life.
ABC and General Hospital want to spread the word that May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and what better spokesperson to advocate for mental health than GH’s own Maurice Benard.
Maurice Benard and the role he plays has at least one thing in common. Both have been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and are climbing that mountain everyday. With the support of loved ones, and proper care instructed by a professional, Maurice and Sonny are navigating through life and succeeding at finding peace and stability.
General Hospital news and spoilers reveal Maurice Benard has reached out with his YouTube series State of Mind, to bring awareness and advocacy on the importance of mental health and taking care of ourselves and our ‘state of mind.’
General Hospital spoilers reveal Maurice and ABC are hosting an open discussion with NAMI, National Alliance on Mental Health and would love for you to join in on the educational and informative session. Sharing resources for assistance with improving your mental health is key to spreading awareness and making a difference relating to coping and stigma, along with everything else that comes along with living and thriving with mental illness.
Check out the video below for more details from Maurice Benard and more!
Brando Corbin (Johnny Wactor) has skills acquired while fighting for our country. He then used his skill set and knowledge to work for his cousin Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard). Since coming to Port Charles, Brando realized some important dreams that took precedence over working for the mob.
Brando left the mob life behind when he decided he wanted a family lifestyle with Sasha Gilmore (Sofia Mattsson). Things aren’t always meant to last even with the best of intentions. General Hospital spoilers and rumors suggest that it looks like Brando may not be so out-of-the-mob as he and Sasha thought. His instincts to stand up for his wife and threaten the culprit came straight from experience. Brando is using his mob ties as a way to scare off the scum bags who are after Sasha.
General Hospital previews and units hint that Brando may be dipping back into that life one foot at a time. Sasha wants nothing to do with her husband working for Sonny Corinthos, but the way things are going, he may not have a choice.
Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) was by Sonny’s side through it all and now that he’s gone Sonny seems a little lost. Amidst drama with his wife Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) Jason was always the voice of reason. Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell) tried to get through to him but it wasn’t sinking in. Brando then unexpectedly gave his take on the situation, and as with Jason, Brando’s words seemed to resonate with the mob kingpin.
Is Brando the only one who can get through to Sonny these days? Despite Sasha’s strong feeling against Brando working for Sonny, is he just what Sonny needs now that Jason is gone?
General Hospital star and all around daytime tv icon, Maurice Benard has made a household name for himself since he began his career in 1987.
General Hospital wasn’t always his home away from home. He started out as Nico on ABC’s All My Children.
General Hospital news and spoilers reveal Benard has recently addressed a sensitive topic with fans in his LIVE stream of the YouTube series, State of Mind. In the live video, Benard disclosed some of his internet thoughts on acting and retirement. Benard explained, Acting isn’t what it was when I was young,” Maurice started. “Sometimes it’s difficult and it hits me in places to act that I don’t like. But right now, I’m really happy on GH.”
Maurice Benard brought up a topic his fans have been dreading. The idea of Maurice Benard retiring and leaving the legendary role of Sonny Corinthos behind, leaves fans unsettled and sad. Regarding the topic of an upcoming GH exit, Benard stated the following, “If I ever left [GH], I would want to bring this State of Mind a place where I could make a good enough living to just do this,” he expressed. “I think there’s less pressure here for me, and I can still work with mental health.”
General Hospital rumors began with claims of the iconic actor quitting acting altogether, right here and now. Although that isn’t the case, fans of Benard aren’t too happy about what they’ve heard straight from Maurice himself. As if those words weren’t discounting enough for hopeful fans, Benard laid down a devastating truth about his future as an actor. “But acting… I don’t know when, but soon enough I’ll be done with it,” he admitted. “Sorry. I hate to say that, but it’s the truth.” Those words have had an impact on the hearts of his fans. It’s so I operant for Maurice to be able to take care of himself. Although fans are bummed they could be losing GH’s lead actor, it’s understandable that he’d want to focus on mental health awareness with his YouTube series, State of Mind.
We sure hope Maurice decided to take his time when it comes to retiring, and we wish him all the best in whichever path he happens to choose.
Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and his relationship with Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) hasn’t made the best impression on onlookers.
General Hospital spoilers reveal Sonny continues to move forward with his romance with Nina. Their connection in Nixon Falls was based on lies, but for some reason Sonny has let that slide. He’s been acting very out of character and his loyalty to Nina has destroyed Sonny’s relationships with his family- specifically his wife and kids.
General Hospital spoilers and previews indicate that Sonny and Nina will grow closer in the coming weeks, despite the fact that she has the cause of the fallout between Sonny and his family. She is even going as far as taking his son Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell) to court over their shared grandson Wiley Corinthos.
GH previews and rumors suggest Nina and Sonny try to work through what they’re about to face as she fights for visitation with Wiley. Sonny is driving the ones who love him away by going forward with Nina. How far will they take things before it blows up in Sonny’s face?
