General Hospital News: Kelly Monaco Thanks Fans In Heartfelt Tweet

Kelly Monaco originated the role of Samantha McCall back in October of 2003. The feisty, badass, con artist, fighter, has come along way from her days of conning and scheming. She has found a place and made a life with Jason Morgan (Steve Burton), and their families. Sam eventually discovered Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) was her mother, and down the road it was learned that Julian Jerome (William DeVry) is her father. Sam and Jason have built a life together with their close friends, Damian Spinelli (Bradford Anderson), Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and his wife Carly (Laura Wright).

Kelly Monaco’s talent is extremely versatile as she is able to express her emotions and play many different facets of Sam. Before General Hospital, Monaco was already a part of the ABC Network and GH clan as she played Livvie Locke on the GH spin-off, Port Charles, where she played alongside co-star Michael Easton (Caleb Morley PC, Hamilton Finn GH).

Kelly recently took a temporary break from General Hospital as the show resumed filming after the Covid-19 pandemic hiatus. Kelly is now back on screen and fans have welcomed her back with open arms.

Kelly Monaco took to social media to express her gratitude for the supportive fans. Monaco says “Thank You” to the fans for the love and support the past couple of weeks and expresses her love for what she does while being with ABC Network for 20+ years.

Kelly Monaco has always been a personal favorite of mine. From the moment she debuted as Sam McCall, I was hooked. Her beauty and talent speak for itself and we as fans are extremely grateful to have her as such an important component to our favorite show. ❤️

General Hospital Spoilers: Valentin Has Plans To Get Nina Back, Jax Should Watch His Back

Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart) spent much of 2019 taking Ls left and right. He found out he was not a true Cassadine and that his only connection to the family (and the fortune) was his mother, Helena Cassadine (Constance Towers).

Valentin lost his love, Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros), when he and Sasha Gilmore (Sofia Mattsson) were exposed for fraud. Valentin had put Sasha up to pretending she was Nina’s long lost daughter, and when Nina finally accepted that Valentin was behind the deception, she had to turn away from their relationship and move forward. Jasper Jax (Ingo Rademacher) was there for Nina with his shoulder to cry on, and support given.

General Hospital spoilers reveal Valentin is on the up and up since he has had a stroke of good luck lately. He was able to convince Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Briana Lane, Amanda Setton) and Sam McCall (Lindsay Hartley, Kelly Monaco), to give him the shares and/or proxy rights in which they are in control. Brook Lynn have Valentin her shares, and along w that her proxy, in exchange for a promising career boost. Sam didn’t give up Danny and Scout’s shares of ELQ, but she did give up their proxy to Valentin in exchange for freedom to be with Jason Morgan (Steve Burton).

General Hospital spoilers and rumors claim Valentin’s good fortune will continue, not only in the financial aspect of his life, but in his love life as well. It’s no secret that Valentin is still in love with Nina but Nina has moved on with Jax. Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) made it clear to Valentin that Nina and Jax are definitely a couple.

GH spoilers hint that Valentin is out to win Nina back and that means stepping over Jax in the process. Valentin left taking Ls behind him and is now focusing on winning at love. The problem is that Valentin doesn’t go after what he wants like a normal person would, with hard work while practicing ethics. Jax is in his way and there’s no telling what Valentin would do to get Jax away from Nina.

Valentin is a dangerous man and thought nothing of shooting Nikolas Cassadine (Marcus Coloma). Who knows what he is capable of when it comes to getting what he wants. And right now, Nina is what he wants. Jax better watch his back.

General Hospital Spoilers: Cyrus Is Hiding Someone And It’s Going To Change Everything; Is Jerry Jacks Back To Torment Port Charles?

Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober) wants all of Port Charles to believe he is an upstanding citizen and has gone to great lengths to make sure DA Jordan Ashford (Briana Nicole Henry) makes it known that his reputation has been salvaged and his name cleared regarding any involvement in prior felonies. Jordan’s husband and P.I., Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner), is sick and tired of watching Cyrus manipulate and threaten his wife. Curtis is taking his P.I. skills and using them to take matters with Cyrus into his own hands.

General Hospital rumors have been flying regarding a well known villain who may be making a comeback. Sebastian Roché steppes into the role of Jerry Jacks in 2007. The role was previously played by Julian Stone. Roché went on to play brother to Jasper “Jax” Jacks (Ingo Rademacher), on and off until 2015. It’s been five years since Port Charles has been rattled by Jerry.

There’s a new villain in Port Charles and General Hospital spoilers reveal Cyrus Renault is not working alone. Curtis uncovered there is someone being hidden by Renault on Wilson Street, and this person is a big enough deal to make Cyrus uneasy at Curtis’ knowledge of the situation.

General Hospital news and spoilers have previously revealed Renault has a partner overseas. Perhaps that overseas partner has made their way back to Port Charles and Renault can’t afford to have them exposed. What will Cyrus do if Curtis keeps pressing the issue?

General Hospital Spoilers: Jason Morgan Suffers Serious Injuries, Will He Awaken As The Old Jason Quartermaine?!

Jordan Ashford (Briana Nicole Henry) and Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) has a private conversation at the courthouse about how Jason came to work for Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard). Jordan mentioned that she did her research on Jason, knowing all about his car accident with his brother, AJ Quartermaine (Sean Kanan), and how when he woke up from the crash he had no memories of his past life. Thus resulting in the identity change from Quartermaine to Morgan, and thriving under Sonny’s wing.

All new General Hospital spoilers for Friday have revealed that Jason Morgan has been involved in a motorcycle crash causing serious injuries. He is found unconscious on the pavement just after he told Sam McCall (Lindsay Hartley, Kelly Monaco), that he chose Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) as his next of kin.

After Jason and Jordan’s conversation, Genera Hospital rumors started swirling, making claims that Carly May have to make an important decision, and that Jason Morgan just might wake up as the old Jason Quartermaine.

With everything that is going on with Jason and Sam, the danger of his work, and how his family’s company is about to be taken right from under their noses by Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart), this could very well be the perfect time for Jason to wake up as his old self again.

If Jason leaves his identity as Morgan behind, Will Sam embrace a softer Jason and will Sonny and Carly be able to handle the change in the Jason they have known and loved?
