General Hospital sees that Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart) is torn between women, Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) being set up, and Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) about to get a new lease on life, the stage is set for some big couple shakeups, a whole bunch of them.
As we slide deeper into May sweeps, we expect to see some couples splitting and some new pairings that honestly seem plausible.
Carly & Brennan Are Done on General Hospital
So, right now we’ve already got two couples on the rocks, one that has kind of been done for a while, but one of the people didn’t know. And another where they don’t realize yet they’re on the rocks, but they’re about to be. So, first, of course, there’s Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) and Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna).
And as far as Carly is concerned, they’ve been over for a while, but he doesn’t know it. Because she’s still sleeping with Jack and pretending that they are still a couple while she and Valentin plot to destroy him. And when Carly’s sleeping with Jack, she’s actually pretending that he’s Valentin in her head.
Joss Devastates Brennan on GH
But this week, Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) is up to some serious shenanigans and she told Brennan that Carly is cheating on him and that their relationship is already over. He just doesn’t know it. Josslyn says that Brennan has already lost her mother. So, the only upside is Joss didn’t tell Brennan that Carly is cheating with Valentin. That would push him over the edge.
This week, looks like Brennan barges into Carly’s bedroom after he grills Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) about his ex-wife. And Carly’s in bed in a sheet looking undressed, unsettled, maybe postcoital. But we don’t know if Jack actually catches her red-handed with Valentin.
Even if Brennan doesn’t catch them in the act, he and Carly seem destined to officially explode soon now that Joss has revealed this. I’m also curious if Jack will tell Carly that Joss busted her out. So, we’ve heard from our leaker that Brennan could die soon and goes out a hero. So, either way, he and Carly seem doomed and Valentin and Carly may be an official couple after Jack dies or even sooner once she’s outed.
And we may see more of Valentin being torn. Because his longtime love and obsession, Anna Devane (Finola Hughes), is in trouble in France and he’s been calling to check on her. So, Valentin may wind up completely torn between Carly and Anna, but fans seem to want him with Carly, and honestly, I do, too. It’s the most I’ve liked her in a good long time in terms of romantic pairings.
General Hospital Shocker: Could Brennan End Up with Nina?
Also, Cynthia Watros talked in an interview about the possibility of a romance between Brennan and Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros), given his recent change in tone with her. Cynthia said, “Even though Brennan and Nina are at odds, they have a lot in common, neither of them has a lot of friends or family,” she more than him. Plus, Jack is about to be big mad at Carly, and that’s something Nina can sympathize with since she is constantly at odds with Carly.” Cynthia Watros also said she loves the idea of Jack and Nina trying to come together and work to get out of the mess that has been going on between them. Plus, it’s been a hot minute since she’s had any romance.
The actress also addressed what happens when Brennan and Nina find out it’s Valentin that Carly’s cheating with. When they find out, Cynthia Watros says that she thinks it’ll trigger Nina and said she doesn’t know if Valentin and Nina would ever reunite, but that Nina has a love for Valentin and probably won’t like the idea of him being with Carly. So, the actress said she thinks Nina will be really hurt by that. So, if Jack does not die, like our leaker said he might, you know, maybe he’s got a future with Nina.
Brook Lynn & Chase In Jeopardy
All right. Another couple in jeopardy, although they don’t really know it right now, is Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) and Chase. Because if Michael Corinthos (Rory Gibson) gets his way, we’re going to see Chase hooking up with Willow Corinthos (Katelyn MacMullen).
And it was Chase showing up with flowers for Willow when Michael was at Willow’s office that had him having this aha moment. So, we know that Michael thinks pushing Chase over to her and getting them to cheat means he’ll be able to take Willow down. Michael also thinks Brook Lynn is better off without Chase.
So, if Brooklyn and Chase do end up splitting, we could see Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) winding up with, you know, his other baby mama, Brooklyn. That would be interesting. They have put them a lot together over the past like six months or so. But Michael’s meddling could result in a bit of karma slapping him and his own relationship getting problematic.
Michael’s Cursed Love Life on GH
So, our leaker recently told us that Jacinda Bracken (Paige Herschell) may be connected to Ethan Lovett (Nathan Dean). I mean, that’s plausible. Because Justine ran off to Australia after Nina and Portia paid her to target Drew. And if you remember, Ethan was raised in Australia.
So, our source says Jacinda and Ethan may have a thing where they collaborate on scams like he used to do with Rebecca Shaw (Natalia Livingston) back in the day, who was Emily Quartermaine’s (also Natalia Livingston) sketchy twin sister and Ethan’s lover and his partner in crime. So, there’s a chance Jacinda might have a similar arrangement with him.
Now, we all know Michael has a cursed love life. Three dead, actually, no, four dead girlfriends and exes. Abby Haver (Andrea Bogart) died, Kiki Jerome (Haley Erin) died, Nelle Benson (Chloe Lanier) died, and Sabrina Santiago (Teresa Castillo) died. Not all while they were with him, but it’s like you date him, you’re going to be dead. Willow cheated. He can’t keep a good woman.
So, if Michael’s heart is broken. Because Jacinda’s a schemer plotting with Ethan, I mean, that would kind of line up to his history. And Michael and Jacinda could be over and done, and she might wind up with Ethan, who may be her secret boyfriend. So, some fans also expect Kristina Corinthos (Kate Mansi) might try and steal Jacinda from Michael. Either way, I wouldn’t be shocked if his romance is doomed.
Elizabeth’s Love Life Shakeup
And next, our leaker mentioned Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst) may have a medical crisis that could kill him. Even if that doesn’t manifest, odds are he’s going to screw things up with Elizabeth at some point. And they’ve also been chemistry testing her in scenes with Dante.
And our leaker also hinted that Elizabeth and Drew might get another chance at romance this summer after he’s back on his feet and no longer locked in. Because it seems like Elizabeth is going to play a role in Drew getting out of that state and you know back to his life. So, obviously he and Willow are already done. They’re just not officially divorced. So yeah, he might end up with Liz. She used to love him.
Lucas Jones’ New Love Interest on General Hospital
So, now let’s talk about Lucas Jones (Van Hansis) who’s grieving his dead boyfriend Marco Rios (Adrian Anchando). We have a new guy coming. The character’s name is Joe Fitzpatrick He is going to be on General Hospital in May. And the actor who plays him, Jonathan Bennett, is gay. And there are rumors he may be Lucas’ next love interest to help him heal and move on from Marco.
Jason And Britt Rumored to Be Over on GH
And last, Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) and Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) are rumored to be over when he is back. We’ve been hearing chatter for a while that Steve Burton wasn’t happy with the storyline or that Britt was Jason’s love interest. Of course, that’s backstage chatter rumor, not spoiler. Now, we know Burton’s back filming in June. That’s straight from him.
And that means he should be back as Jason middle of summer. I would guess in time for July sweeps. So, supposedly Britt and Jason won’t stick together and he gets a new storyline. So, GH may soon be looking for new love interest for both Britt and Jason. We’ll see what pans out and what doesn’t, but things are getting dicey for a bunch of couples in Port Charles.
