The engagement party from hell begins this week on ABC’s General Hospital, and you can expect lots of twist and turns and drama as Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) tries to get rid of the evidence and keep her secret that Lulu (Emme Rylan) is actually the bio-mom of baby Ben! With Britt and Nikolas (Tyler Christopher) set to have their big soiree at Wyndemere, will it truly go off without a hitch?
In this sneak peek video, Britt is about to destroy the contents of the envelope containing the truth of baby Ben’s parentage when Lulu drops by (she has been helping plan the party!) and tells Britt, “You are one wedding ceremony away from being my sister-in-law!” Later she says to Britt in regards to Ben, “As his stepmother, I will practically be your understudy as far as Ben is concerned.” Oh my! Oh Lulu!
Will Lulu finally learn the truth? Will Britt get away with covering up her lies and her tracks yet again? What do you hope happens next in this ongoing story of “The Britch” and the baby? Watch the sneak peek after the jump, and then weigh-in!

General Hospital fans took to social media following the airing of the Wednesday, October 21 episode of the ABC daytime drama series. In story, Molly (Kristen Vaganos) reveals to Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) that she has received an offer to join the top law firm in Chicago that practices civil law. She says it’s her dream job.
The problem Molly says is relocating from Port Charles and uprooting her life and being away from her mother, Scout and boyfriend Cody Bell (Josh Kelly). Wistful that she may lose another daughter to a long-distance situation (Kristina left a few months back to go to medical school in California), Alexis urged Molly to get Cody to go with her.
Molly still seemed concerned and has trouble committing to the idea. Alexis tells her to talk it over with Cody. Meanwhile, Cody asked Tracy (Jane Elliot) is he can have Thanksgiving off because he and Molly planned to spend Thanksgiving together with their families. After initially balking, Tracy agrees.

WILL MOLLY AND CODY HEAD TO CHI-TOWN?
Later, Cody shows up at Miller & Davis and the conversation turned to Thanksgiving dinner that Alexis is hosting. Molly and Cody asked her not to cook anything. Cody hugged Molly reassuring Alexis that he and Molly would take care of whatever was needed on Turkey Day.
So, this raises the question, why out of nowhere are we learning that Molly received an amazing law offer in Chicago, if the character was not being written out? If Molly leaves the canvas, would the character of Cody make his exit too?
Kristen Vaganos joined GH as a recast Molly Lansing-Davis back in September of 2023 and went on contract in August of 2024. Josh Kelly began playing Cody Bell back in June of 2022. Initial reports were that Kelly joined the show on contract and then as of June 2025 went on recurring status with the show per his choice.
Do you see a world where GH is writing out Molly and Cody? Would you be sad to see Kristen and Josh exit the soap opera? If this is not what is going on, is this just a plot point for some other story that is upcoming? Share your thoughts and theories via the comment section.
It’s been over two-years since his last appearance on General Hospital, now fan favorite Kin Shriner (Scott Baldwin) has taken to social media to share his thoughts on the casting of his grown-up TV daughter, Serena Baldwin now played by Kelly Kruger.
Kelly took over the role of Serena on-screen starting with the July 30, 2026 episode and has been ensconced in the storyline with her mother, Lucy Coe (Lynn Herring), in trying to win back full creative control of Deception for her.
In fact on the Monday, October 19 episode of the ABC soap opera, Serena tried to dupe Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) into signing over Michael’s (Rory Gibson) shares of the company. Jason caught on and wondered why she was doing this. She claimed she just wanted to help her mom gain creative control from Tracy (Jane Elliot) rather than full ownership, and begged Jason to keep quiet about it, which he agreed to for now.

WHERE IS SCOTT?
On Monday, Shriner also took to X and said, “I think Kelly Kruger is doing a great job on General Hospital, and she and Lynn Herring work well together.” That was followed by comments in his thread about the show needing to bring back Scott too.
In fact, back on August 25, Shriner also took to X with a reminder that Scott is still around and ready to come back to Port Charles, sharing, “Scotty Baldwin always fits in he just needs the right sport coat !!!!”
The last time Serena mentioned her father Scott was when Kruger made her debut and informed Lucy that her father was, “living his best life in Key West.” Meanwhile, Shriner posts on his X account continually and shared back on August 2, that it has been 49 years since he made his on-screen debut as then teenaged, Scotty Baldwin and thanked the fans for al the love and support.
So, now let us know, are you enjoying Kelly Kruger as Serena Baldwin? Do you want to see GH bring back Scott Baldwin into the story, so Serena has both her parents in Port Charles? Do you like the potential of Jason and Serena pairing? Weigh-in via the comment section below.

So ready for Lante to get their baby and hope Brittch finally has to pay for all the crap she has done. Sorry I don’t buy the whole ‘redeemed by love’ BS since she is acting just like she did before just a little less bitchy. Let her lose and I have a feeling we will see the real Britch come back.
Hit the nail on the head. I feel the same way!
I agree!
Love it!!!
Hmmm let’s see, Britt will lie, nick will believe her, our beloved Liz /Rebecca will still be relagated to second banana, to Britt, Carly, Sabrina, Sam ect, RC will bring back someone from the dead, hire 10 new characters, let the villains get away with murder n Dumb down the police department and on & on.
Sounds about right! I really don’t like the storylines lately.
All of this has already been done…lol
How long will it take to end this story-line? Lulu has already missed out on so much time with baby Ben.
it is time for LuLu to learn that Ben is her baby!!!!!!!
I hope that Lulu finally gets her baby back. Why can’t Brit do the honorable thing and tell the truth? I hope Nik finds out what she’s been doing to his sister before the wedding.
Stupid storylines! This is one of the worst along with Molly’s attitude – she needs to be bitch-slapped and not by her boyfriend. Alexis needs to lock her up.
I hope T.J., who slept with Taylor, does have sex with Molly and she ends up getting an STD then hopefully Mollys attitude will change!!!
I hope Alexis get one. Why can’t she date someone who is ethical, she can’t preach what she doesn’t practice.
It is about time that Lulu get her son ….. I can’t stand Britch
This storyline has gone way too long. For one thing, why let Lulu continue to suffer because she cannot have children? Of course, don’t start me on that conversation, which is beyond ridiculous. Never have liked Britt since day one and she hasn’t convinced me at all she deserves any of my sympathy. Just because she feels guilty hasn’t meant she’s ever done the right thing. At least Liz has learned from past mistakes and owns up to them as well as Lulu. Brit will never change. She will ever be Dr O’Shit’s mom, she is just like her. Give Ben back to his real parents, let them move on and put Dante and Lulu into a different storyline. I hope Nik sides with his sister, but something tells me TPTB will write him standing by Brit. If that is the case, I surely hope Lulu tells Nik he isn’t part of her family anymore. Let Nik suffer too. I loved Nik but it will be easy not to if that is the way he chooses to go. I do think DZ and ER have really taken this storyline as far as they can, so let’s move on and give them something else to sink their teeth into together.
Im still hoping for a twist: Lulu finds out Bens her child,gets custody and has him for 6 months…then Britts mutter reveals Lulus stolen eggplants werent used and Britt really is Bens mumma!!! Then Lulu has a breakdown, goes to that same mental hospital were Luke was, is drugged and brainwashed, then returns thinking she’s 18 and has the hots for Micheal and Morgan!!!(a reworking of Ron C’s Jessica plot on OLTL when Jess thought she was a teenager)lol
You do know that Michael and Morgan are her cousins
Yep…but it wouldnt mean she’d go with them!!!
Oh, for the love of Zeus!…. Really?
I hope we don’t have to wait until the “does anyone object?”at their wedding!!
I’m rooting for Britt—can’t stand Lulu after the horrible way she treated Maxie several months ago.
I for one hope it will takes years for Lulu to learn the truth. It should come out when Ben is a teenager, but I doubt many will agree. I believe many reveals happen too quickly on soaps today. I think the longer the secret is kept the more explosive the reveal is when it does happen, but few soap fans or writers have the patience to wait that long. So I suspect the truth will come out during May sweeps.
I agree with you…i remember o Days when it took like 8 years before Mike Horton and Mickey Horton to find out that Mickey wasnt Mikes father and Bill was which also meant Mickey wasnt the father of Linda’s daughter Melissa as well…an enraged Mickey got a gun, confronted Bill and during a struggle Bill was shot…and Mickey had to be placed in a sanitarium because of a mental collapse…great drama that kept me tuning in and cutting school on occasion(not often)…lol
I don’t like LuLu she irks me so I want Britt to keep the baby!!
I use to like Dante until his recent hair style, it’s horrible LOL ..
Britt needs a break, she’s a good mother..
This will go on util the wedding when, just before the ”I do” it will come to light probably by Dr. O, or not .. lol
I am beginning like Brit more and more. Please don’t put Nikolas back with Liz she is so boring and but into every bodys business and cant take of her own ugly mess she has created for her life.
Please let LuLu have her baby. It is past time for her to be happy for a change!!!
She needs to tell the truth . Emilys ghost needs to come and tell Nicholas
I am so sick of all the nefarious and hiding of truths, that it is be coming too childish! Can we ever get a sensible story line and not the same shenanigans?
umm GH is a soap opera, ya know .. it is the way of the soaps 🙂
This storyline has dragged on for far too long. They’re well past the point where they could still whitewash Britt by blaming it all on the evil Dr. O since we all know differently. So time too wrap it up already.
When will the good people of Port Chuckles ever learn that nothing good ever, EVER happens at Wyndemere? Every party held there ends in death and disaster. (The place must have the worst feng shui on earth.) Not that the Metro Court has a much brighter history …
This reminds me a lot of the whole P.J./Steven Lars saga of 35 years ago-ironically, that was the storyline that got me to watch GH inn the first place! A lot of lives were torn apart because of Heather’s actions then, and now here’s Britt manipulating Nikolas, Dante, and Lulu the same way Heather did with Jeff, Peter, and Diana! By the time that story ended, both Peter and Diana were dead and Jeff fled town with his son to get away from Heather. It is just too cruel to let Lulu suffer for so long. Why is it on this show that ‘legacy’ characters (i.e. second-generation) characters are always being dumped on? Look at A.J. and Lulu: constantly being victimized by others with their lives in jeopardy all the time!!! We might as well add Robin to this category. For once, I’d like to see both A.J. and Lulu being able to find some lasting happiness storywise and become much stronger persons. Time to give the kid back, Britt: you’re gonna lose everything if you don’t!!
There is no ”ever lasting happiness” in any soap..
soaps are not about happy or happy ever afters, they are about drama , mostly in most every way some sort of tragedies ..
I had much rather the show runners had gotten rid of Britt than AJ. This actress just can’t bring it.
I am really sorry to see SK go. The show needs AJ, and AK is AJ Quartermaine. I hope they see the error of their ways and get both Kanan and AJ back. Guza and Company tried very hard to make AJ irredeemable and the current writing team didn’t have the chops to undo the damage. Pity, a real pity.
what is the hidden connection between Nathan “West” and Britta “West”bourne?????????????
This is the most ridiculous storyline and has gone on for far too long. Though, I do like Britt, she has softened. Love her scenes with her “muttah.” NuLulu still has not grown on me. I miss Julie Marie Berman.
I am not even watching faithfully anymore after 37 yrs. Writers are out there on some story lines and repeating others lets hope this is the last whose baby is this for a long time. If they payed attention to the fans they would have much better ratings because we are the ones that bring them a pay check. Hate to lose gh but if things don’t improve will we even care.
I love Britt with Nickiloa, she has softened up, but is still alittle edgy. I want her relationship with Nickolas to thrive. I donot want Liz back with Nickolas; I want that character off the canvas. I really have never seen the value of the character. To me, she is the Amy Vinning of today (someone that viewers know) that have some story background, and loans filler when needed Otherwise, GET RID OF HER!!!!!
whether it is good writing or not ben is being used as property just like sam’s baby to make the parents feel better or worse althouh this is a soap opera this should stop now
