Is This the Beginning of an Affair Between GH’s Willow and Drew?

For months, Willow and Drew have been dancing around their growing attraction to one another and this week on General Hospital it clearly looks like they are about to share a lip-lock.

In the newly released promo for the action in Port Charles the week of July 8-12, as confetti is being dropped when Drew (Cameron Mathison) makes his official announcement that he is campaigning for a seat in the congress, emotions and exhilaration are riding high.

As Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) and Drew are about to kiss, it looks like Sasha (Sofia Mattson) will be the one to catch them and hold their secret. Willow has felt indebted to Drew for saving her life. And of course, if Willow and Drew give into their passion further and hit the sheets, that would mean that Drew has also been having sex with Willow’s bio-mom, Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros).

Michael (Chad Duell) and Willow’s relationship has been strained, Drew and Michael at one time shared a very close bond, and from the looks of it, this moment could inject some much needed adrenaline into their storyline.

So, are you all for a Willow and Drew affair? Who do you want to see Willow end up with ultimately? Who do you want to see Drew end up with ultimately? Will Nina go ballistic if she found out they were having sex, and or some semblance of relationship? Lots to ponder.

Check out this week’s promo for GH below.

Now weigh-in – thumbs up or thumbs down for Willow and Drew to wind up together? Let us know in the comment section.

I find this troublesome and so out of character for Willow !

Enough of Drew bedding every woman on the show!

Further, the whole mother then daughter too really creeps the hell out of me !

It is absolutely disgusting that GH thinks it is ok to put Drew and Willow together!!

They have crossed a line with this latest stunt!! Gross!!!

Totally agree. Time to stop it before it goes any further.

Not really out of character as she did cheat on Chase when she got together with Michael when Chase was on his deathbed.

Can’t believe I forgot that..

Maybe, it’s just me, but I’ ve always liked Drew, despite his choice of women, it’s something that Willow might dream about, a’la Hope, B&B, but Drew , I can’t believe he’d carry on with his Nephew’s wife, I really hope he has more respect and integrity.

It is even worse when he is old enough to be her father

Yes, but she married Chase out of pity. That was wrong, and cheating on him was wrong, but Drew is an entirely different matter. She loves Michael, so there’s absolutely no motivation to be drawn to someone else. The kissing scene seemed forced.

If this happens the new writers will have gone too far, I won’t be able to watch any longer.

Same. I’m so disgusted I just deleted my DVR recording and quit GH after 25 years. I just can’t. This new writing is horrific and shameful.

I agree

Agree 100%

Finally a good week worthy of the July sweeps.
Willow and Drew my goodness what kind of a mess can this make with the new Mr Q running for Congress and Nina filleting Drew on an almost daily basis?

Well, since she just demanded to see him and will love seeing his explanation, after she tears him a new one.She thinks he’s exclusively hers and am pretty sure she won’t be willing to share with daughter, Willow.

GH has to stop breaking up any couple/family that is the slightest bit happy. It’s really getting to be old and a big turn off.

You are right, speaking of turn offs, who else is sick to death of our latest Debbie Downer Sam, gosh if she’s not criticizing Jason and his relationship with his son, she’s bitching about Drew and Scout. She evidently doesn’t approve of either man as a good father for” her child”. She needs something to do besides getting in every one’s business.

Why would she approve of either of them Violet? Jason has always prioritized Carly over not only Sam but Danny. That’s a fact. And Drew? He was away from Scout for two years when he was held captive by Victor. He came back, and then decided to be locked up for three more years so that Carly wouldn’t have to leave her daughter! So he chose Carly (as does Jason) over his own child. And now? After Scout missing her father for those two years, missing her father when he was in jail and being told he’d be there for three years, missing her games, etc, he’s going to be spending most of his time in Washington, once again away from his daughter. Neither Jason nor Drew are good fathers; only when the can make the time.

Sam knew all of these things before she had Danny with Jason. Shoot everyone knew that Elizabeth n Jason let Lucy raise their son because of Jason lifestyle. Sam is definitely being a hypocrite. Jason would have done the same for her, she’s just jealous of his closeness to Carly. Yes they are making Drew a flighty father but come on these characters always are barely involved or send their kids off. I like Sam but she getting on my nerves. And isn’t she risking her freedom trying to get info on Jasons FBI involvement. She’s definitely not thinking about them then

Thanks for your support, but watch out or you’ll have someone jumping down your throat if you don’t see things their way.

Also tired of Portia. She is just going off the deep end

She’s always been a pain you know where, even if it’s none of her business. Don’t know why they ever paired her with Curtis, he deserves much more.

Agree 100%, it’s getting old. Writing has been horrible. Also the Sonny storyline with him being under medicated is ridiculous. Enough already..

I agree enough of sonny off his meds and breaking up family,bunch of back and forth, from one to the next

Well, they have to have an excuse for his terrible behavior and his seemingly turning against everyone, especially Jason, whom he loves like a brother.

I don’t think Willow and Drew should have a relationship. This could ruin his time for Congress and the end of her and Nita. It’s not right. What about Micheal?

At this point Drew has kinda cut a path threw part Charles women. First Liz and Sam. When he thought he was Jason. Has a baby with Sam. Then Carly, now Nina and possibly Willow. And Kim was in the middle of that too. So slow down bro! Who do you think you are? Sonny Corinthos lol!

That’s the best one I’ve heard yet!

It didn’t go far, but Drew was starting to get close to Margaux as well. I think that was before Kim.

As far as I’m concerned, who cares if Drew goes to Wash. Nina caused nothing but trouble for everyone, including Willow, the only one to suffer will be Michael, whom it looks like he’s wasted his love on the wrong woman, she’ll never give up on Drew, until she ruins his life and eventually competes with her mother for his favors.

Willow should be with Michael. Drew should be alone

NO..DONOT LET AN AFFAIR HAPPEN!!

drew and willow make me sick they are shameful and nasty when michael find out they are going to pay dont forget michael has sunny temper also what the hell is wrong with the writing team they have now they suck

I agree the GH writers suck. I can’t believe Drew and Willow disgusting. Mother, daughter, Uncle too much for me.
Sony and all the people around him have not figured out that he is OFF! Remember what happened to Morgan!

I Love Both Drew And Willow, But OMG, If They Hook Up, It Will Be Kind Of Nasty When You Consider The Fact That Drew Has Already Slept With Willow Bio Mom Nina

when wz WillI & Michael’s relationship strained??? This is so out of character for Willow & they were so much in Iove & so happy with their kids. Very unrealistic storyline !

Yes, Michael jumps through hoops for her, also trying to distance Nina from his ” princess” at her anxiety and former requests. Now, she’s ready to stab him in the back, guess she really is Nelle’s sister, both like Mommy Dearest.

This is the same Willow that cheated on Chase with Michael. Bring on the soapy goodness!

Maybe, she’d have better luck with Comet, he’s happy with a few carrots.

I am totally against Drew and Willow having an affair. Which writer came up with this idea. Just about ready to turn off this soap and I have been watching for over 50 years

I have been a fan for over 50 years . Whoever the writer is who made this decision to have Willow and Drew have an affair is an idiot. Seriously considering turning off this so

If you survived Sonny & Emily and Luke & Felicia, you can handle this potential pairing.

Luke and Felicia was agony.

I could not agree more. Those were the really painful pairing to watch.

I really hope they’re not setting up an affair and reigniting a mother/daughter feud this time involving a man. This is not a storyline I want to see. I prefer Nina & Drew as a potential couple.

Having Drew and Willow kiss or have an affair is my breaking point!! That is the stupidest storyline to date! Please stop breaking up families for Pete sake! If our young adults are watching, you are not giving them good examples for sure! No wonder our society is messed up. I know it’s just a soap, but this is crazy! I do not like the new writers at all!

Drillow? Yikes.

Drew is gross!! I hope Michael leaves Willow!!

Willow was really better off when she was the daughter of the cult wackjob Harmony.

Now she’s been drafted into this horrible Faison-Westbourne family tree, and she’s suddenly doing the type of dragonshit that Nina or Nelle would do.

And by the way…. how in Hell’s name is Drew a viable political candidate for any office?

Sure, as we have all seen lately, being a convicted felon won’t keep you off the ballot anymore. But even aside from that, he’s had brain issues, memory problems, brain mapping and did in fact work for Corinthos Coffee, LLC for a while, when he still thought he was Jason. And wasn’t there a series of violent crimes committed by him when he was under Helena’s control?

The women in his life…. Sam, Carly, and now Nina, have all had ties to Corinthos Coffee, LLC at one time or another.

Even his legitimate business dealings can be called into question. He purchased Aurora Media from Julian Jerome, and he did so in Jason Morgan’s name with Jason’s money. Now what opposition candidate would pass on the opportunity to frame that as a “mob business deal”, even though it really wasn’t?

And this was all before he had any thought of banging his nephew’s wife.

Yes absolutely!! I don’t want this story line with Willow and Drew..give me a freaking break..what happened to her sense of right

Yes, Drew is having a middle-aged crisis , what’s her excuse!

Shh…
Drew having Jason memories is one thing people in Port Charles are not allowed to discuss. That, and:
– Sonny killing AJ
– Sam keeping quiet about Jake’s kidnapping
– Taggert being a father to Trina

I’m sure I missed a few.

Please NO.

I am definitely appaud that they would consider Willow and Drew having an affair. Michael will be hurt and right now Drew just announced he is running for Congress. This is being to much like the real campaigns for President. No one needs to involve politics on a Soap. Not only that, it’s weird they have the character Drew sleeping around so much after breaking up with Carly. The writer or writers should not allow someone to like Willow to be cheating again, after what she did to Chance. Come on people, just once can we have a Happy Family instead of all this drama. So mad they have made GH terrible since I was in my teens. Please bring back the Romance of two people who are in love and will stay in love. Rant over.

Just NO!!!!¡

GH FAN Circa ’77

This is taking things too far! I did not like Nina and Drew. That was disgusting given all she’s done. Willow and Drew is an ultimate betrayal. Michael deserves better. Drew is apparently a true Q. Backstabber!

What’s there to weigh in about, absolutely not!!! Let one couple make it, for goodness sakes!!! How sick can you get!

This is an awful creepy storyline. I really think Cameron is exiting soon.

Maybe he likes his stupid Bridge game, he wants to do that instead of sleeping with mama and daughter. I can’t believe this crap until I actually see them in more than one little scene, that might even be Willow’s dream, or if it’s true, will be a nightmare!

No, no, no! I cringed with they kissed. She’s a young woman who is suffering from “hero” attraction. He should be the adult in the room and shut that down asap. I really hope they don’t wind up having an affair. That will totally creep me out.

No!!!! And that is about all I can say NO WAY

This is horrible! I love Nina with drew Willow needs to be with Micheal The writer of this is horrible and is making a mistake

That’s what I was thinking a couple of days ago, when I saw the stars in her eyes, ” hero attraction”. Granted, Michael has no personality, unlike his two uncles, but he was Willow’s choice, after Chase, and does she honestly think that starting an affair with her husband’s uncle, who just happens to be running for a political seat is right or cool? What a dummy!

Side note that this entire episode took place at the Qs. We got a (sad) Monica acknowledgement and a large chunk of the cast on (Lois must’ve made a trip back to Bensonhurst for the 4th).

With the multiple sets used, it’s now obvious that they’ve retired the Q den set. Sad as that was the last link to Edward, Lila, Alan and the other departed Quartermaines. It was always used in the summer because it had a large patio attached.

Final random thought – a big NO to Wally’s new credit picture.

What drove me nuts was the way they kept jumping from the house to the stables, like it was all together, under one roof.

They kept jumping from house to stable, like it was all under one roof, crazy!

Ok, I gave it time and I can say the new writing regime sucks! 1. They have no chemistry and 2, he’s old enough to be her father. Drew has chemistry with Nina, but I guess the want a rivalry between mother and daughter. Everyone on this show now has a beef with someone they were once close to. Gonna give GH a rest!

I am disgusted over this! Shame in the writers!

All the comments here are unanimous. A first? lol

I can’t believe this. Drew was just kissing on Nina. Not good Drew. Not good.

Wrong! Wrong!don’t like it! Have some respect for some relationships & marriages!!thumbs down!!!

Thumbs down

No willow and drew

No one in their right mind wants Drew and Willow together! I can see Willow being grateful to Drew for saving her life, but what’s Drew’s excuse? It’s just wrong on so many levels…Michael and the kids, Carly/ Willow relationship and Nina/ Willow relationship.

We are both using “GH fan”.. but are are not the same person. Guess I will rename myself. Lol

This is a turn off on so many level, yes, its a soap opera, and the staple of soaps but its gross on so many level, The Drew character to begin with is to much, I know the character has been through a lot but the character still comes across as entitled an self righteous, Is he supposed to be a good guy w/morals? he sure doesn’t follow that by any means, I’m no fan of the Michael and willow pairing I was more team Willow and Chase but that ship has sailed, and Chase is now with Brooklyn, it would be Karma for Michael for cheating with Willow when chase was his suppose friend. Yet, this pairing is icky on so many level, Drew is sleeping with Nina and he knows Willow is her daughter, he’s old enough to be her Dad,(willow and daddy issues,’m not surprise) but Michael is his nephew, is this payback because Jason is Michael favorite uncle? This guy has already been with 3 of his brother exes, Is Port Charles really that small? He’s not even officially a congress men yet he’s already acting like a sleazy one. Drew is the character they need to send packing, not Finn, once again GH (my fave show ever that I’m not quitting on even though this storyline is icky in every way) that thing that irritates me where they prove they can give you so much powerful beautiful sad storyline like they did with Finn’s fall into addiction and provide us with a group of actors showing us their best (Finn, little violet, chase Brooklyn, Liz, Tracy, Alexis) all wonderful is this powerful storyline and then they just pulled it off and send Finn packing,I’m just baffle, Who am I supposed to root for this upcoming sleazy storyline? there’s nothing to like about the Drew character. I got to go wash off I feel dirty.

No she shouldn’t have an affair with drew

Personally,I hope Drew gets elected moves to DC…..and then gets assassinated.

Me, too.

Great idea.

I can’t with this show anymore. These new writers have no concept of the history of these characters. This is just going too far.

Actually, the writers are getting this right. Willow (who grew up in a cult) has trust issues and went behind Chase’s back with Michael.

Drew is kind of an open canvas and would be following in the path of generations of Quartermaine men.

@OG Steve, plus it felt like Willow forgave Michael way too easily and quickly for his Nina blackmail stunt. I hope they play this as she has buried her resentment and distrust of him over that all this time, and now Drew is giving her a way to manifest that.

thumbs down!! I hate that the writers of GH are taking their characters in this direction!! Shame on yall. Leave Willow and Michael alone.

As hilarious as it is for Drew to suddenly be the chick magnet he’s become: Carly, Nina, Willow; Jordan seems interested, Sasha and Olivia were giggling like school girls over a teen heartthrob, talking about how good-looking Drew is. And as much as this just took a sordid twist, it will keep me coming back for more.

As much as I find this as upside-down as every character seemingly obsessed at the same time to lock Sonny up and make him pay for all his crimes, or the simultaneous desire to switch careers, jobs, goals, this will have (if written well) soapy repercussions whether they move forward with it or it’s just a one-time-kiss.

I’m HOPING Michael and Carly find out; I’d love for Carly to see her precious Willow in a new light; someone who cheated on her beloved son Michael. I’d love Michael to see Willow in a new light, since he’s been wailing against Nina for over two years for her part in Sonny’s “betrayal” of his family (of course ignoring his own betrayal of Sonny by trying to have him locked up for life). And Nina? I really want her to FINALLY be close to Willow, so this could go one of two ways; Nina puts aside her own interest in Drew to be there for her daughter if Michael and Carly shut Willow out, or, (which I hope doesn’t happen) it could set up a resentment/jealousy/rivalry ala Kiki and Ava (which I hope they don’t do). They could all turn on each other; Willow will hate Drew and feel betrayed when she finds out he’s been sleeping with Nina.

LOL; after all the pearl clutching we might finally get a really soapy story…

If they put drew and willow together I will stop watching

It’s so amusing to see all these self proclaimed long GH fans beeing outraged by the Willow-Drew possible pairing. Wake up people, this is the Quartermaine family!!! Torrid affairs have always been running in this family. From Alan and Monica to Tracy/Ned/Paul/Jenny to Grant/Celia. Kudos to these new writers!!!

Exactly! This is the same family where Monica had an affair with a younger Ned (not knowing he was Tracy’s son). Edward had two out of wedlock sons despite being married to sweet Lila (herself a bigamist).

If Drew and Willow give into passion and take it further, Michael’s uncle will have slept with his wife, mother and mother-in-law all in the same year. That’s living up to the Quartermaine name!

Congrats to the writers for making CM’s Drew an interesting character to watch. Didn’t think that was possible when he was paired with Carly.

Nasty thought

Very very gross Drew is Michael’s uncle

I don’t like this at all. I got angry seeing this yesterday. I hate it. It’s so out of character for Willow. I want Willow and Michael to stay together.
The character Drew is becoming a selfish guy. Don’t like it at all.

He’s old enough to be her Dad. Ewweeee

The thought of Willow and Drew is disgusting! I am so disappointed in Willow. She and Michael have had some rocky moments,mostly because he want to protect her from being hurt by her mom. But if she goes ahead with Drew, I will lose all respect for her. I don’t have any respect for Drew so none to lose. Please don’t do this and ruin another couple. Who’s next BrookLynn and Chase?

Absolutely not cool. So out of character for Willow. Not to mention her and Michael clearly love each other. Please mix this storyline. Are they trying to create a 3 way love triangle.. disgusting!

I didn’t think they’d go there since it is a bit icky (not as bad as Nikolas and Esme, though), but it is soapy and dramatic. It will also affect a lot of other characters.

You are so correct about the Nikolas and Esme pairing being gross.

Yes! To me that one was even worse than Emily and Sonny which I didn’t care for either. I’m curious to see what happens next, if anything, between Drew and Willow.

No it’s gross Drew is so old

Come on – it’s not like she’s having an affair with Robert or Congressman McConkey.

Hey, I think Robert is a hunky old guy! So does Diane.

He’s still got it Violet. Just had to pick someone with a much wider age separation from Willow for the analogy.

Hilarious!

No no

I think a Willow and Drew hook up is wrong!!

I was so hoping that this would not happen, but since it has even gone so far, makes me pretty sure it will continue. It would most likely ruin both their lives and their families. Soaps don’t do things like this and then cut it off, every little thing is done and said for a reason, no script is wasted. So hang on tight guys, this will be one hell of a ride!

RATINGS: ‘Beyond the Gates’ Inches Closer to ‘General Hospital’ in Total Viewers

Published

By

Beyond the Gates and General Hospital

The latest ratings are out for the week of October 26-30, 2026 and the big takeaways include: that CBS daytime’s Beyond the Gates was separated by only 23,000 viewers behind third place (of the soaps) General Hospital! For the last several weeks, Beyond the Gates has been closing the gap on this year’s winner for Outstanding Daytime Drama Series, and continuing to best GH in the key demos.

According to the latest Nielsen ratings breakdown from Soap Opera Network, the final week of October brought Beyond the Gates 1.790 million on average tuning-in and the show set a season high in total viewers. Meanwhile, General Hospital hit a new season low! The long-running ABC soap had 1.813 million for the week, and once again the series did not go over the 2 million mark.

Meanwhile, in the key Women 18-49 demo, Beyond the Gates was firmly ahead of GH with a rating share of 0.21, while General Hospital had 0.17 rating share.Then, in the key Women 25-54 demo, Beyond the Gates was once again ahead of the ABC soap with a ratings share for that demo at 0.30 while GH came in with 0.26.

MORE BY THE NUMBERS

In addition and comparatively, Beyond the Gates +22,000 viewers week-to-week, and had the largest gains in viewership year-to-year in daytime TV with +267,000 from this in 2025.. However, General Hospital seems to be going in reverse. The show was down -56,000 viewers week-over-week and down -22,000 year-over-year .

BEYOND THE GATES

Let’s take a look at some of the storylines that had people tuning-in to Beyond the Gates during the ratings week:

Hayley (Marquita Goings) attempted a massive shocker regarding her pregnancy and tried to use it to extract money from Bill Hamilton (Timon Kyle Durrett). Although, Bill saw right through her game, he demanded a paternity test, and made it clear he has no intention of raising the child—planning instead to pay her off to take the baby and leave. Meanwhile, Hayley confided her plan to her cousin Randy (Maurice P. Kerry).

Jacob Hawthorne (Jibre Hordges) and Naomi Hamilton (Arielle Prepetit) clashed over Jacob’s ongoing investigation into The Impaler, causing significant strain in their marriage. At the same time, Smitty (Mike Manning) considered taking matters into his own hands—including potentially heading to Mexico for evidence—while Martin Richardson (Brandon Claybon) worried about what comes next.

GENERAL HOSPITAL

Over at General Hospital for the ratings period, the story served up included:

Carly (Laura Wright) and Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) teamed up to investigate what really happened to Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna). Later, Danny (Asher Antonyzyn) leads them to Jack’s dead body.

Jude (Wil Traval) dropped a bombshell claim to Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn); that he is Phoebe’s father, while Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) and Chase (Josh Swickard) signed their divorce papers.

Then, Danny caught Rocco (Finn Carr) and Scout (Kayden Brenna Tokarski) sharing a kiss, plus the shocking return of Heather Webber (Alley Mills) capped the week.

Now the questions become; without having much promotional synergy in the ABC day-part to draw more eyeballs it is not helping but hurting General Hospital. It seems Beyond the Gates is also a  benefactor of a one-two-three punch of CBS soaps (Y&R, B&B and BTG) and promotion.

However, that still doesn’t take away the fact that Beyond the Gates is close to besting GH in all ratings category as they go head-to-head in some markets across the country.

So, are you excited to see Beyond the Gates climb in the ratings? Are you concerned for General Hospital? Do you think they can stave off Beyond the Gates in total viewers or will the upstart soap overtake them in the next ratings report? Share your thoughts in the comment section.

Antonio Sabato Jr.

Antonio Sabáto Jr., the former Jagger Cates of General Hospital and GH: Night Shift, and the former Dante Damiano of The Bold and the Beautiful has issued his first public statement since the incident involving his son, Jack’s arrest in Alaska for a fatal hit-and-run.

Jack is the son of Sabáto Jr. and Oscar-nominated actress Virginia Madsen, and according to court documents obtained by KTUU  Jack, was allegedly driving a white Chevy Tahoe when he hit and killed Carl Simmonds, 42, near an intersection in Anchorage around 5:35 a.m. on Monday, November 9.

The reports indicated that Jack fled the scene — but later decided to called the cops to say he hit “something” that “suddenly appeared in the road” while he was “doing late-night DoorDashing.”

Now, Antonio has taken to his Instagram breaking his silence on the situation, sharing, “At this time, my family and I are navigating an extremely sensitive and deeply personal matter.”

He added, “As a father, my love for my children remains unconditional, and my priority is the well-being of my family. We ask that the public and members of the media honor our privacy during this difficult time and keep us all in your thoughts and prayers.”

The soap alum concluded, “I also wish to extend my heartfelt condolences to the family and loved ones of the gentleman who tragically lost his life. My thoughts and prayers are with them as well. We sincerely appreciate your compassion, understanding, and respect for the privacy of everyone affected.”

Jack Sabáto was arraigned in court on Tuesday, November 10 with bail set at $5,000, and a no-driving order and the potential of $5,000 penalty fees if he fails to attend future court appearances.

Antonio is the father to Jack, 34, daughter, Mina Sabato, 24 and son, Antonio Sabáto III, 15.

‘General Hospital’ Casts Ayla Bullington as the New Avery Jerome-Corinthos

Published

on

By

Ayla Bullington

Sonny (Maurice Benard) and Ava’s (Maura West) daughter Avery looks quite different, starting on today’s November 9 episode of General Hospital. That’s because GH has made Avery into a full-blown teenager and the role is now being played by actress Alya Bullington.

In her debut, the Tennessee native was thrown into the deep soap waters with Daytime Emmy winners, Maurice Benard and Eden McCoy (Josslyn). Bullington weighed-in to TV Insider about her first scene which featured Avery overhearing a fight between Sonny and Josslyn.

She explained “It was something I have never done before, I did not have a lot of experience with the screaming and the crying stuff, but I got my first script, and I was like, ‘OK, this is a huge opportunity to learn so much about how that stuff works and to become this character that I have never even tried playing before.’”

THE TEENAGED VERSION OF AVERY WILL HAVE A LOT TO CONTEND WITH

Speaking of working with McCoy, Bullington shared, “She’s incredible. I remember her just laughing and making jokes on set, and then the minute that they started taping, she just locked in and she cried immediately, and my first thought was, ‘I want to be able to do that.’

The soap opera newcomer added, “I think she just inspired me so much because she is so great and she can just lock into whatever character she wants to in the moment.” 

The character of Avery was born back in 2014, but as recently as the October 8 episode of General Hospital, the character was suddenly referred to as a teenager. This is the second young female character in recent months to be aged up following the casting of Kayden Brenna Tokarski as Scout Cain.

As for her take on Avery and what’s ahead, Alya said,“She’s emotional, and she’s curious, and she’s a really fun person to play because so much stuff is happening in her life. I think she’s kind of confused about what’s happening and what to believe.”

So, what do you think about General Hospital making Avery a teenager? Are you excited to see the conflict between Sonny, Ava and Avery now that they have aged up the character? Share your thoughts and welcome Alya to GH via the comment section below.
