Meanwhile, Brenda’s popularity has fans hanging on to hope for decades, especially with it comes to Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard). Of course, Brenda Barrett is a force on her own. Whether she’s single or paired with one of Port Charles’s most powerful men, Brenda can hold her own. Die hard Sonny and Brenda fans keep the faith when it comes to those two reuniting.
According to recent GH spoilers and rumors Dex and Betty could be working together. For the full story, click HERE. Due to these recent rumors, GH fans speculate that there’s much more to Betty (Ella Lentini) and Dex (Evan Hofer) than meets the eye. Additionally, GH rumors surrounding Brenda’s return raise questions. For months, fans have wondered where Dex comes from and who is biological parents are. From Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) to Sonny Corinthos, fans continue to guess who Dex’s father is.
That being said, some GH rumors tease that Dex is Sonny and Brenda’s son. So, in the light of the newest GH rumors, some wonder if Dex and Betty are twins who are after their father. And their mother… is none other than Brenda Barrett! What do you think? Could these two sneaky cats be in Port Charles to take Sonny down?!
Dex tells Sonny the truth! Dex Heller (Evan Hofer) spent his recent days on a mission to bring down Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard). Originally, he took an employment offer from Sonny’s son Michael Corinthos’s (Chad Duell). And despite the position’s uniquely dangerous job description, Dex assured Michael he’s the man for the job.
Does Dex Understand The Assignment?
After meeting with his potential candidate, Michael thought that Dex seemed to fit the position well. Accordingly, Sonny’s son proceeded with his plan to use Dex to take down his own father. It was then when Dex began working for both Michael and Sonny.
General Hospital recaps recall Sonny’s suspicions of his new employee. It is loyalty and trust that Sonny holds in high regard, honoring those who possess these qualities. So, if anyone betrays him, there’s no going back. Since Dex is secretly working for Michael, the betrayal against Sonny is already a done deal. However, forgiveness might be an option if Dex comes clean on his own.
Meanwhile, Michael’s personal life has its challenges as faces a true nightmare. Although a focused businessman, Michael is a negatively distracted with Willow’s terminal illness. Additionally, drama follows the Corinthians family, and every turn. While Nina is the reason Michael feels betrayed by Sonny, she is also the source of the Willow’s distress. This makes Michael more determined than ever to make sunny pay for choosing Nina over his family.
Dex Tells Sonny the Truth
As revealed in recent General Hospital spoilers, there is more to Dex Heller than meets the eye. Previous General Hospital rumors speculate that Dex has a personal connection to someone(s) or in his new social circle. GH rumors tease that Dex and Sonny’s latest meeting highlights an unexpected connection between them. Although GH rumors suggest that Dex knows exactly who and what brought him to Port Charles, he never imagined his feelings could change. Clearly, something ignited between the two men during their conversation about cooking. Similarly, Sonny and Dex’s interest in cooking serves the same life purpose for each of them.
Sonny recognized in Dex what he knows about himself and did’t hesitate to admit their common trait. Previously, GH rumors surrounding Dex claimed the young informant would likely turn out to be either Sonny or Jason Morgan’s (Steve Burton) son. That being said, because Sunny indexes newly discovered commonality, be a nod to what’s to come?
If you have been following soap operas for a long time like most of us daytime tv fans, it’s likely you know a little something about the filming style and schedule of a soap actor.
General Hospital news and spoilers reveal soap operas are filmed in a demanding, high paced environment, that is designed to roll our once scene after another. With early call times and long hours, having a solid work ethic among the cast is key.
General Hospital spoilers reveal Maurice Benard sat down with daytime star, Rena Sofer, on the YouTube series, State of Mind. In the interview, the longtime friends discussed many aspects of life, focusing on their time together while playing Bensonhurst Besties, Sonny Corinthos and Lois Cerullo. Sonny and Lois had counterparts, or, love interests at the time that completed what was referred to as, the fearsome foursome. Vanessa Marcil and Wally Kurth played along side Maurice and Lois as Brenda Barrett and Ned Ashton.
In Maurice’s interview with Rena, she recalled a specific time while on set with Marcil; an incident that occurred m which set the tone for their working relationship was the turning point for the young actress. Rena recalled a time when Vanessa was late, didn’t show up, and Vanessa told Rena, “Oh, I’m so sorry, I overslept.” Sofer continued to disclose that Marcil didn’t make entry lines. Rena explained, “And I just remember looking at her and going, ‘I don’t care who you do that, don’t do it with me. I don’t want that.’” Surprised by Sofer’s admission to being bold and straightforward with Vanessa, he asked how she took it. Rena admitted, “I think it really affected her,” she continued, “And maybe she doesn’t even remember that I said that. I think it affected her because every time we ever worked together again, we worked to make our relationship deeper than what they were writing it, which I think is why it was so intense and beautiful.”
Rena and Vanessa’s relationship deepened from that point on. Sofer made it clear that she expects out of her co-workers, the same type of dedication and effort as she puts in. Giving it their all has a lot to do with the success of their era. GH fans couldn’t get enough of Ned and Lois, Sonny and Brenda, and of course, Lois and Brenda. L & B Records was iconic and the bond between Lois and Brenda was as strong as that of Rena and Vanessa.
It’s nice to reflect on the good ole days, back in the 90s when Sonny Corinthos was making a name for himself around Port Charles. After all, coming from Bensonhurst gives immediate street cred.

I was glad to see her go.” Then Vanessa Marcil herself replied to the tweet by commenting, “I’ve got some bad news for ya ?.” General Hospital rumors may become reality, as this comment from Marcil seems to indicate a definite return to GH for the actress.
