One of the buzzy scenes of this week featured General Hospital’s Adam Huss (Nikolas), Nicholas Chavez (Spencer) and Joey Clay (Ace, who shares the role with twin brother Jay). The trio played out the emotional moments when Spencer handed Nikolas his son, baby Ace, and the two shared the cutest reunion.

The highly-anticipated scenes not only featured a reunion between baby and dad, but also father and older son. Huss spoke on taping the key moments in the evolution of Nikolas’ storyline.

Speaking with SoapHub, Huss shared what it was like working with little Joey as baby Ace in the scene, where the little guy, looked more than comfortable in the arms of his Port Charles bio-dad.

Adam expressed, “I’ve got to hand it to him.” He asked, “That kid gave me a real gift. His natural instincts gave me gold.” In an ad-libbed moment, after Ace reached out to his dad a beat or two earlier than written, it was up to Huss and Chavez to make it work. “Nicholas Chavez and I just rolled with it,” shared Huss. There was a natural gift that came out of (that moment). That was magic.”

On the Clay brothers Instagram account, it shared:”Overwhelmed by the kind comments from today’s episode! 🌟 Joey & Jay, at just 17 months, have already ACED so many incredible scenes. Here’s to many more to come!”

Viewers also noted how solid the scenes were between Spencer and Nikolas which featured Spencer in tears and Nikolas trying to make amends. Huss had nothing but praise for Chavez: “Nicholas is such a great actor. I know whatever I’m going to get from him is gold. I felt Spencer’s vulnerability and love and frustration for me.”

Reunited?????? Ace and Nikolas were never “united”. This guy confuses love with possession. Ace is a Cassadine: ergo, a possession. It’s a diabolical saga.—-and “the beat goes on!!”

ace is not a cassadine,esme slept wth somebody else,might hve been cameron

Nope Cameron is her paternal cousin through her bio dad Steven Lars Webber a lot of fans believe that Ace is a Quartermaine and his father is Michael.

Do “a lot fans” equal just one? Nobody else on this site subscribes to this crazy theory. Ryan Chamberlain is unequivocally Esme’s bio dad. And the Michael part is just comical.

What’s next? The love child of Lila Quartermaine and Casey the Alien?

Huh Heather is her Mom and Ryan us her Dad that makes Steven Lars her half brother.

There’s nothing in the storyline that ever suggested such a possibility.

Yes, Esme is capable of such a lie. Yes, it’s unlikely (but not impossible) that a blue eyed, blonde baby would come from two dark haired parents.

But Esme was not seen with anybody other than Nikolas anywhere near the time that she did the unholy deed with Nikolas. So it would require a major rewrite to establish anybody else as Ace’s father. And don’t expect that from these writers, who can’t even give the poor kid an actual name.

Thank you, Satan. You said it all❤️

You realize this is not real, correct? This article is about how amazingly the little actor baby responded to his actor father. The scene was done so well and apparently not scripted the way it went down, thanks to the little boy reacting in such a beautiful way.

No, this is real. Are you kidding me? Do you think I live in an artificial world? Try it on someone else. You see—-I bite. —-seems to me, you are the one who believes this is real. You’re so into the fallacy, you just had to take the time to explain it to me. WOW. You’re so deep!!

Celia you are right-on.They were not re-united because they were never togethet..They lucked out here because that little boy played into the scene so well, snuggling up to Nik, why I’d everyone acting like the Golden Prince has returned?

The Golden Prince—-Love the sarcasm, Violet.
I think that the only reason Nikolas took Ace was to spite Esme. This guy had no love for anyone. Who shows up in town without taking the time to see his own mother? If Adam is the permanent Nikolas, I will have to FF his scenes. Childish, perhaps, but I care not. His eyes give me the creeps. LOL.

Great job Adam!! Hoping you finally become our new Nikolas on a contract basis.

Adam Huss is the best. I can’t wait to see him in scenes with Genie Frances. I too hope he receives a contract.

Those scenes were amazing! That little boy played his role well…ACED it!!!!

A baby has no concept of acting/role playing.. He’s just a calm child who seems to be happy with anyone who holds him. Lucky parents—

I thought it was great! They actors were on it.

Babies Ace deserve an EMMY!

Bravo for this entire scenario all 3 deserve a emmy

That was a soap moment that I will never forget. The three actors outdid themselves. This is defintely Emmy-worthy for all of them. Let’s not forget the writers, directors and everyone else behind the scenes. Scenes such as this is why soaps should be here forever.

Ace is definitely a Quartermaine Esme slept with a drunk Michael and Michael has no recollection of the events that happened except waking up at a hotel theirs always a twist.

You’ve posted this cockamamie theory on other sites and were shot down there. Doubt you’ll get a better reception here.

I agree, Mr Fairman’s reporting and story on all the remaining soaps are excellent.. but many of the comments are just plain toxic and makes me wonder why people bother watching the shows just to complain.

They are tv soap operas… no reason to take them so seriously.

That’s why he/she is anonymous….LOL

Nikolas should have his son…and Spencer is a dumbarse playing daddy to a child, not his..

I hope Nikolas takes Spencer down for playing daddy and for his stupidity in being with Trina..

Hey, SusieQ—Thanks for seeing my “light” when referring to nuTrina and Spencer.
However, Nikolas has no right to Ace, especially not by kidnapping him. Neither he nor Spencer is thinking of the baby, who was taken out of his environment —-so crucially important at this age to be within familiar “walls” and people. He will be devastated not being with his Mommy.
Nikolas, so like Spencer, at this point, is an unfeeling, self-centered Cassadine —so true to form.

Get rid of Nicholas. Please

yes great performance by the actors, the baby was great but poor baby looked like a hostage waiting to be rescued, I hope Spencer gets in trouble for basically aiding on the kidnapping of his own brother, Laura really looked disappointed in son and grandson, the dark princes.

In the just released General Hospital spoilers video for the week of June 22-26, Lulu tells her mother, Laura (Genie Francis), “Dante and I have to get to Rocco before Cullum!” Meanwhile, Rocco (Finn Carr) looks angered and emotional as Britt walks through their cabin hideout. Does Rocco know his parents are on the way to find them, or has Cullum already tracked them down to the British Virgin Islands?

Back in Port Charles, Carly is informing Lucas that his niece, “is a WSB agent.” She knows Josslyn (Eden McCoy) is being held against her will at Wyndemere, and she has to find a way to get her out. Lucas agrees with Carly’s plan of, “We go in and we don’t leave without Josslyn!” Elsewhere, Josslyn is looking worried for her future as she is stuck in captivity thanks to Cassius, Cullum and Sidwell!

Maurice Benard Gives High Praise to ‘General Hospital’ Writers; Teases Upcoming Sonny Scenes with Anna, Jason, Justine and Ric

Published

With the highly-anticipated returns of Finola Hughes (Anna Devane) on this week’s June 24 episode of General Hospital, Steve Burton’s (Jason Morgan) upcoming return on July 13, which also serves as the ABC daytime drama’s 16,000 episode, things are about to fire on all cylinders in the story, as noted today by series star, Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos).

On Father’s Day, the three-time Daytime Emmy-winning actor and mental health activist took to his Instagram and expressed in a video that he has some unbelievable upcoming senes with the aforementioned Burton and Hughes. Add to that Nazneen Contractor (Justine Turner) and Rick Hearst (Ric Lansing), where Benard gave credit where credit is due to the GH writing team, which is led by co-head writers, Elizabeth Korte and Chris Van Etten..

In this video, Benard said, “I just want to get on here and say that I did some work with Steve Burton, Finola Hughes, Rick Hearst, Nazneen Contractor, and they’re all just fantastic. Truly fantastic. But, I want to say the writing was just exceptional. It truly was. It was exceptional. So, thankful for that kind of writing. I know writers don’t get the credit a lot, but I just want to say to the General Hospital writing team, keep rolling!”

GENERAL HOSPITAL PREVIEW

So now the question becomes, with a major tease like that, what is about to go down between Sonny, Anna, Jason, Justine and Ric? Will we finally get to the end of the line for Sidwell (Carlo Rota), as previously teased by the GH co-head writers? Will we learn what happened to Jason and Anna, fully? Will Justine and Sonny becomes closer or stop their liaisons? And what of Ric? Will he be true blue to his brother or double-cross him? There is a lot at stake as we move further into the summer and one that looks like it could be one of the more exciting ones in years!

FINOLA HUGHES CONFIRMED AMAZING SCENES WITH MAURICE BENARD

As a punctuation point to his video, Benard also shared this written message in the post: “I just did some wonderful scenes with Steve Burton, Rick Hearst, Finola Hughes and Nazneen Contractor and  and unbelievable writing, freaking amazing scenes that you will see in the near future on General Hospital.” In fact, Finola Hughes jumped in the post comment thread and responded, “I loved our scenes so much xxx”

Fans will most likely see all the scenes Benard referred to later in July, since GH tapes approximately six weeks ahead of air.

So, are you excited to see what Maurice is talking about? Are you hyped for what’s to come on GH? Any clue on what you think will go down between the main characters on the soap with the returns of Anna Devane and Jason Morgan to the mix? Weigh-in via the comment section below.

SINCE LEAVING GENERAL HOSPITAL

Previously, since his departure from the ABC soap opera. Chad starred alongside Zach Mendez in the world premiere of of Yum Yum at Annapolis, a new play written by Bruce Reisman. Duell last appeared on General Hospital on the January 21, 2025 episode.

The part was recast with Rory Gibson who debuted as the new Michael in May of 2025 during the Nurses’ Ball episodes and who has remained in the role since that time.

In an interview earlier this year on The Able Show, Duell said on his decision to exit the soap opera, “I was blessed to be part of that (show) for as long as I have, but what happens sometimes is if you’re doing the same thing, especially in a creative field for such a long time, you can get a little burnt out in a way. It can make you a little depressed, so that’s kind of what happened. On top of that, I had other things going on in my life at the time. My father passed away recently and I just needed a reset. So, I stepped away. A lot of times you have to go through some stuff to really step into that next level. I needed to kind of feel uncomfortable.”

So, what type of musical genre will Chad’s new song be? Country? Pop? Rock? Dance/Club? Something else? Let us know your thoughts via the comment section below, and if you are eager to hear the new single next week via the comment section below.
