Eden McCoy Marks 10 Years as ‘General Hospital’s’ Josslyn Jacks
Daytime Emmy winner, Eden McCoy is celebrating a very big milestone in her daytime soap career as October 14th, marks her 10-year anniversary since she debuted as Jax (formerly played by Ingo Rademacher) and Carly’s (Laura Wright) daughter, Josslyn Jacks.
It was back on this date in 2015, that a young Eden appeared in Port Charles, and since that time the character has been major story and we have seen Eden grow up literally before our very eyes!
Who can ever forget Joss and Oscar Nero (Garren Stitt) heartbreaking love story, her evolving relationship with Cameron Webber (William Lipton), losing Dex Heller (Evan Hofer), and then shooting and killing his murderer, Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober) till now where she has been romantically involved (whether they want to admit it or not) to Agent Vaughan (Bryce Durfee). Along the way, McCoy picked up her first Daytime Emmy in 2024 at the 51st annual Daytime Emmy Awards as the last recipient of the Younger Performer in a Daytime Drama Series, which has since been dropped for the 2025 competition and now called Emerging Talent in a Daytime Drama Series.

Taking to her Instagram on Tuesday night, Eden acknowledged this special day, and shared, “Today marks 10 years since my first episode of General Hospital aired 10 years of life has happened in this studio . What a special thing to be able to celebrate. And an impossible thing to put into words. It’s embarrassing (from 13 years old to probably 17?) and remarkable that most of my life is documented on camera forever, starting at age 12 to now, 22,” McCoy recalled.
Looking forward in to the crystal ball of her life, Eden added, “My kids will be able to watch me grow up, and when I’m 80 and want to see what I looked like at 15 I can find it.”

Summing up her GH experience, McCoy explained, “My life has become unrecognizable from the life I had my first day at this job, yet the one thing that is the same is my ability to come to this set, and work with people who have become family. Whenever I see old scenes from previous years, I don’t see the scene, I see whatever I was going through in my real life at that time. This show has given me the opportunity to provide for myself and create the life that I love, and this show is around because of the fans. So thank you to anyone who has tuned in the last decade. And the cast and crew, you know who you are. And the team in the booth that keeps this show running. YOU put the food on my table. And YOU gave me so many lessons that are not seen on camera. I love you.”

So many of Eden’s co-stars took to her Instagram thread to offer up their congratulations including Laura Wright, Sydney Mikayla (ex-Trina), William Lipton, Braedyn Bruner (Emma), Brooklyn Rae Silzer (ex-Emma), Sawandi Wilson (Isaiah), Gary James Fuller (James), Katelyn MacMullen (Willow), Kate Mansi (Kristina) and more.

I look at Joss and Trina’s friendship and I’m reminded of 1978 young Laura and Claudia. Best friends coming of age and going through things together. The things Eden said about being able to look at old footage of herself growing up on camera. Genie can say the same thing about herself. I wonder if they’ve had conversations about it.
I really miss Dex. I loved him!
Killing Dex, in my view, was one of many short sided decisions by the writers. Dex, Brando, Duke, Nathan (nevermind), Britt (nevermind), Jason (nevermind), Drew (nevermind). If Dex were around and Joss still joined WSB, it would’ve created friction in their relationship if she lied to Dex. Anyways, characters come and go, but I don’t think death should be the way 90% of the “going” is done. Especially based on the “nevermind” aspect of it!
To be fair, Duke has been (neverminded) two or three times himself. if they want to bring him back again, I’m OK with it. I’m sure he would love to get away from Olivia Jerome!
Maybe he’ll come back? He was a poet and a visionary.
I don’t recall Dex reciting poetry to Josslyn ever, and what was Dex’s vision about? He never spoke of world change did he?
He wanted to change… the drapes.
Dex liked squirrels and shiny things.
He emoted poetry with his eyes and vision when he gazed at Joss.. or at Sonny when he cooked him chicken piccata in an apron.
The new “Emerging Talent” category replaced (as has no relation to) the Younger Performer category. That’s how 56-year old Olivia d’Abo was somehow nominated despite being a costar on a high rated show 37 years ago.
Dex!!!!!!!!????
I always thought Eden would go off to college or pursuit over opportunities like her peers did. I don’t but her as a WSB agent. She just doesn’t have that cool flair that a young Anna did or any of the other classic WSB agents for that matter.
Congrats on 10 years, Eden!
You are definitely the best of the best in the younger generation of actresses.
It is a pleasure to watch you on GH.

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

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.
