GENERAL HOSPITAL: Michael Blasts Brad As The Truth About Wiley Comes Out
FINALLY! On Wednesday’s episode of General Hospital, Lucas (Ryan Carnes) memory is jogged just enough that he clearly remembers Brad’s (Parry Shen) shocking words before their car crash; where Brad confessed that Wiley was Nelle (Chloe Lanier) and Michael’s (Chad Duell) biological son.
At the Corinthos home, Lucas stands up and announces to Michael that Wiley is actually his believed to be dead son, Jonah. Carly’s (Laura Wright) mouth drops and then she takes over getting to the root of the truth of the baby switch.
Brad is cornered and left with no choice but to fess up. He explains how Wiley died when he was no longer breathing, and how he was driving with him, when he ended up on the route where Nelle left Michael to die in the car he was driving (Michael recalls this bit of Intel in a flashback).
Then, Brad explains how Nelle appeared with her newborn baby and claimed the whole thing was engineered by Nelle … and how he was so upset and panicked, that he went along with her plan.
Michael lets Brad have it for all of his lies and machinations, and the pain it has inflicted on so many people for over a year and half. How on earth could he do that? Carly also lays into him.
Meanwhile, Sasha (Sofia Matteson) has urgently called Chase (Josh Swickard), who leaves “Wiley” and Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) behind, and heads to the Corinthos’ where he hears the whole sad truth about the baby switch.
With Chase gone, Nelle goes looking for “Wiley” who is with Willow, and the two get into a major throwdown catfight. Nelle comes out the victor and goes to get her baby ready to leave town with her son.
So, what did you think of how the truth finally came out? What did you think of Michael’s tirade on Brad? What do you think will happen next? Comment below.
Mommy Nelle from Hell verses Wimpy Weepy Willow who could be knocked over with a pillow…silly Willy Willow…and come on Brad…make it your show..tell what you know…yes, Brad tell Lucas it was his dad who knew too…and if Pukas Lucas gets mad at his dad well, Brad it was still the right thing to do!!-lol
Brad only got a small part of what he deserves. He needs to be arrested!
He sure does!
Why should Brad be arrested when Sonny and Jason are out committing crime on the daily…?
Alan
Because one thing has nothing to do with the other. Second of all, I would like to know what Brad’s excuse means when he kept saying that he was grieving and that’s how Nelle got to him.! Grieving about what? An adopted baby he had for less than an hour.He’s such an ass. How could any mother such as Willow give a child to someone like him?
You can talk about Sonny all you want but he would never have done to one of his kids what Julian has done to Lucas, and for what? Not love that’s for sure but because of his guilt for being such s lousy father.
No, Sonny would just steal AJ’s son from him with Carly’s blessing and then be outraged years later when it happens to his “son.”
As for Brad grieving “an adopted baby he had less than an hour”…wow, that’s harsh. It’s not like Brad lost a pair of shoes or his new i-phone — that was a living being that he and Lucas had waited for to build their family and who they had hopes and dreams for. Every parent talks about the overwhelming love they felt the first time they saw/held their child (and being adopted doesn’t make that child or that love lesser) so why wouldn’t Brad feel the devastation of such a loss?
This is not about Sonny and Jason. This is about the kidnapping of a child by Brad.
Alan – State of New York -Penal Code Section 135.20. Kidnapping in the second degree is a class B felony punishable by a mandatory sentence of 5 to 25 years in prison
I think it’s hypocritical to say Brad should be the one person to pay for his actions on a show that seems to thrive on people NEVER paying for their crimes: Laura, Alexis, Ava, Franco, Sonny, and Jason have all killed people. Carly shot Tony Jones, withheld evidence that Sonny killed AJ, and stole another woman’s identity before coming to Port Charles. Sam committed multiple crimes before and after arriving in Port Charles. Sonny and Jason have committed untold crimes as “coffee importers.” Maxie stole drugs from the hospital for Lucky when he was addicted. Valentin threw Ava over the parapet. Nina induced labor and stole Ava’s baby. And the list goes on and on…I
Yeah but kidnapping your husband’s nephew isn’t merely a crime, it’s a really DUMB crime.
Once again, under New York State Law the only issue is Brad kidnapping a baby.
Highly disappointing.
After all this time…Whose decision was it to have Carly be the main focus of this episode? Lucas and Michael are the most impacted. Bobbie has both her children involved. Heck, everyone in the room, except Julian could all go to town on Brad.
Highlights of the episode:
– The Nelle – Willow fight.
– The reveal that Taggert is Trina’s dad. Just hope that they don’t pull a Burt Ramsey on Taggert. Long time viewers know what I mean.
I don’t think they’re going to “Burt Ramsey” Taggart, now that they made Trina his kid.
What seems inevitable however, is that Taggart is going to have to work with Sonny & Jason to bring down Cyrus the Virus. And you know he’s really gonna HATE that. Won’t be so hard for Jordan… she used to work for Sonny already.
Yep…overdone with Snarly Carly…now if Julian could be found out knowing and tampered with the car that injured his own son!!!-bet Snarly Carly will be in that too
You know, Steve, it was a big mistake for the characters to keep repeating how long Brad had been lying to them. “Over a year”, “18 months you knew…” All this did was remind us how llllooonnggg this oversudsed plot has been creaking along. And, as usual, it’s resolved in 24 hours. There should have been a full episode devoted to the reveal with everyone having a chance to shine. Instead, Sheriff Carly, the Great Rationalizer, castrates the entire room and starts forcing Brad to “enumerate” what happened step by step, like a deranged Algebra teacher. Nelle/Chloe and Willow/Katelyn were fabulous and having both women essentially fighting for their child was very well done. What I DIDN’T need were the interruptions of Sonny & Jason in another inane mob plot and this ridiculous Jordan-driven mystery. Trina & Cameron were cute together, but belonged in a different episode.
What Soaphound and Allen said. Narly caterwauling in the center of the group of characters was annoying as hell. Carly barely knows her half-step brothers (she ruined Lucas’s adoptive father Tony’s life) and yet she is goes on and on as if SHE were Nelle’s intended victim? I need a break from Narly.
Lol….are you new?? Carly, Jason, and Sonny ultimately become the focal point of everything…even stories they have NOTHING to do with. The hypocrisy of Carly never amazes to floor me. I cant believe that this many writing regimes have been able to keep this character such a non self aware hypocrite! Michael had merry go round fathers before Carly finally settled on Sonny as his “father”. First she claimed the father was Tony…then Jason….then Sonny…meanwhile his REAL father was AJ. Carly didn’t like him so she played little games like “Let’s douse AJ in alcohol and make him fall off the wagon!” or “Sonny, can we hang AJ on a meat hook today and force him to sign over parental rights??” Carly and Sonny also take glee and joy in keeping Ava away from her daughter Avery. They have spent a lifetime keeping children from their rightful parents!! So who the hell is Carly to throw shade at anyone?? And Bobbie did something with Lucas when he was a baby…she lied about his true parentage so she could keep him as her adopted child. Listening to her sanctimonious spewing was quite grating too!! The self righteous Sonny and Carly are the two reasons I cant fully invest in this show! Because these two slimeballs always come out on top, untouched and unscathed.
I know, Colin, I know. I just keep hoping, in vain as it turns out, that SOMEONE will wake up to the madness of the Corinthos/Morgan takeover of years ago. There are so many more interesting people to focus on. I abandoned the show after many years when Billy Miller checked out. But then….the Nikolas return and the Nelle resurgence got me hooked again. I still FF anything to do with the militantly repulsive Peter August and keep hoping Billy/Drew will return. And I confess to liking the Ava/Nikolas tale.
Soaphound…sadly speaking, I don’t think that the characters of Peter and Carly are gonna be written off of GH anytime soon. I mean…seeing as how Wes Ramsey and Laura Wright (1) are 2 GH FAVORITES and (2) are dating each other in real life. BEYOND ANNOYING!!!!!
Later.
All good points on Carly. She got triggered due to Nelle’s involvement. I have to admit I was rooting for Nelle to get away with the baby–I like her character’s shenanigans-for some period of time and then get caught and later reunion the baby with Michael.
The show I saw had too much Carly screeching and making it about her and not enough Michael and Lucas expressing their outrage. But then, some things never change. Poor Bobbie just sat there, looking fantasic by the way, with her mouth hanging open, probably wishing Carly would shut up.
Wiley is an adorable child.
It would’ve made more sense for Lucas’ memory to have been jogged while in the car to the airport. The only thing that being in the Corinthos house should have triggered was nausea,
And of course Carly’s caterwauling took center stage. I so wanted Julian to step forward and ask her if she was this outraged when Sonny stole Michael from AJ or if that was different because she gave her blessing.
Poor Brad. He’ll lose everything for one mistake yet Saint Sonny and Jason can commit every crime in the book and come out smelling like roses.
I’m rooting for Nelle. At least she’s entertaining.
You want the writers to leave a baby in the care of Nelle the psychopath?
The alternative is the baby being in the hands of wimpy Michael who is totes cool with his career criminal family who are guilty of hundreds of more crimes than Nelle. I don’t think Nelle is any worse a role model than Sonny, Carly, Michael, and their pals Jason and Sam.
You know, Alan, I’d rather see Wiley with Lucas after all since he doesn’t have too much involvement with Sonny. If not, let Willow have him. She couldn’t do any worse than Carly the Castrator. Oh, I just realized…. Carly is now a grandmother. If I ever hear the words Nana Carly spoken on that show…. I’ll free Nelle myself!
I love the episodes and yes finally, but I have to agree with some poster, how the heck did this.become the Carly show? it was almost like it was all about Carly(clearly one of franks V pet) and Bobbie just stood there like an extra, clearly the writers don’t know how to write for multiple people in a scene, the bobbie I knew would of had more to say. I’m glad brad is getting what he deserves, him and Julian are both weasels. one thing I was glad about was that although this storyline was the main focus, the other storyline playing out with taggert, curtis and Jordan was just as interesting.
This comment is about Taggert and Trina…
Maybe Stella is Taggert’s mom and Trina is her granddaughter…connecting back to the DNA tests that revealed they each had a relative in PC. Taggert and Curtis would be cousins!
What a refreshing, straight-forward reveal! Lucas remembers and, true to the character’s honesty, he stands up and tells Michael immediately that Wiley is his. Then the fireworks started to really light the room! I think there will be a lot more.
These past two episodes were dynamite!
I am so sick of Carly. You hardly ever see her with her own newborn. Then there is Liesl who knew the truth about Wiley. Didn’t she help Nelle at the birth of Michael and her baby? Wonder if she will factor into the reveal at some time. And since other commenters are doing it, sick of Sonny as well, and really disappointed we are going to have another Sonny/Jason crime story. Why should Jason be anywhere near his own kids. He’s a great role model for his own kids. “Let’s bomb a building in retaliation…make sure my gun’s ready…how does he get a license to carry anyway.” And just a little defense of the actor who plays Peter. I like him. Not a great role to play. I think he has probably been disliked by many because of his association with “Carly.”
Carly, “mother of the year.”
OK…here are the GH characters that I am TRULY SICK OF: Alexis, Carly, Jason, Peter, Sam and Sonny.
Everybody else…I like.
Later.

Kelly Sullivan Gives High Praise to ‘General Hospital’s’ Maura West Recalling When Ava Shot Connie (Exclusive)
It was just over 13 years ago on General Hospital when Ava Jerome (Maura West) shot and killed Kate Howard/Connie Falconeri (Kelly Sullivan) in an effort to keep her quiet from revealing that Derek Wells was actually Ava’s back-from-the-dead brother, Julian Jerome (William deVry). It’s a crime that somehow Ava never has quite paid for either.
The episode back aired on August 13, 2013 and viewers had to say goodbye to Kelly Sullivan who played Kate and her alter, Connie. In the story, just before she died, Kate/Connie scrawled the letters AJ in her own blood, initially making the PCPD and Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) think that it was AJ Quatermaine (Sean Kanan) who did the deed.
Now, Sullivan recalled sharing scenes with the three-time Daytime Emmy-winning West, during a live conversation on You Tube’s Michael Fairman Channel. Kelly was the special guest talking about her recent return to the soaps in her new role as The Bold and the Beautiful’s Darcy Dylan.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS OF MAURA WEST
Speaking of her final GH scenes and working with Maura West, Sullivan gave her then GH co-star major props. “If you’re going to be shot by somebody (on the soaps), you want to be shot by Maura West, c’mon!”
Maura West debuted back in May 2013 as Ava, and Sullivan remembered when the As the World Turns favorite began on GH. “I remember when Maura West first arrived at GH. She walked in with this cute little bob (hairdo) and she’s just delicious,” shared Sullivan.
A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE
Kelly revealed more about Maura, adding “I think she’s amazing! I remember right before I left the show, someone suggested, and I would still love to do this with her, if she ever want to, but someone suggested that they wanted to direct the stage play A Streetcar Named Desire with Maura and I, where I would play Stella and she would play Blanche! Wouldn’t that be great?”
Speaking of the Ava/Connie showdown scenes, Sullivan expressed, “On television and on General Hospital specifically, Maura West is able to play a character who does the most horrendous things and you still care about her and that’s the mark of a really great actor. In other words, you’re able to be liked in the midst of the most horrendous things, and as a performer not shying away from that, and to just have the courage to do what’s on the page (in the script).”

KELLY SULLIVAN PARTING THOUGHTS AS SHE LEFT GENERAL HOSPITAL
Kelly also shared her sentiments when she walked off the set of General Hospital after her run back in August of 2013. “I really was honored. Every day I would go to work and I would say a little prayer, which is I want to do justice for my character, explained Kelly. “It’s between me and my character. I get to walk this path with her and to leave the show on that note, which is, I left every out there. I just gave it my all and again what an honor it was to play Kate/Connie.”
You can catch the full conversation with Kelly where she talks about her time on General Hospital, The Young and the Restless where she played Sage Warner and now The Bold and the Beautiful below.
So, do you remember the Ava and Connie scenes where Ava shot and killed her? What did you think of Kelly Sullivan’s sentiments about Maura West? Share your thoughts via the comment section. But first, watch the reveal where Ava recalls murdering Connie below!
The question of will Steve Burton (Jason Morgan) stay awhile at General Hospital after his recent extended hiatus from the show earlier this year, has reportedly been answered.
TMZ via court documents obtained in Burton’s ongoing legal battle with his ex-wife Sheree Gustin, shared that Steve actually inked a new three year deal with the ABC soap opera back in June.
That is significant because it was June when Burton returned back to work as Jason. In addition, the court filing confirmed that Burton had already moved back to California from Tennessee.

STEVE’S HIATUS AND HIS RETURN TO PORT CHARLES
GH fans will recall, it was back in February of 2026, that Burton announced via his Instagram that he was stepping away from his role of Jason Morgan for short break and pointed to wanting to spend quality time with his new wife, Michelle Lundstrom Burton with whom he tied the knot back on May 17, 2025.
Steve expressed at that time, “I’m newly married and looking forward to spending some quality time with my family.” It was back on March 25 that viewers saw Jason carted away by the WSB after taking the fall for Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr) who shot then WSB Director Ross Cullum (Andrew Hawkes).
Burton returned to work on June 1, and due to General Hospital taping roughly six weeks ahead of air, made his on-screen comeback on the July 13 episode.
GOING FOR GOLD AT THE UPCOMING DAYTIME EMMYS
Then, Steve and his enduring fans got an extra special treat on the same day, when it was revealed on Extra that he was nominated for the upcoming 53rd annual Daytime Emmy Awards in the Outstanding Lead Actor in a Daytime Drama Series category.
Steve previously won in the Supporting Actor category for his work as General Hospital’s Jason in 1998 and as The Young and the Restless’ Dylan McAvoy in 2018.
Now with Jason and Britt’s (Kelly Thiebaud) relationship seemingly hitting the skids, plus Jason’s commitment to staying out of mob life to focus on being present for his son Danny Morgan (Asher Antonyzyn), what does the future hold for the fan favorite character? Stay tuned.
So, happy to hear that Steve Burton signed a new three year deal with General Hospital? Knowing that, what storyline would you like to see Jason get involved and with who? Share your thoughts and theories via the comment section.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Jason and Britt Reach an Impasse; Is This the End of Their Relationship?
On the Friday, September 11 episode of General Hospital, Jason (Steve Burton) and Britt’s (Kelly Thiebaud) relationship becomes strained to potentially the point of no return.
Things take a turn when an unglued Britt having been traumatized by almost being killed by Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) asks Jason to back her up with the PCPD when she reports Anna for attempted murder.
However, Jason told Britt, he can’t. Jason shares that he does not believe Anna would have gone through with shooting her. Therefore, Britt was not in any real imminent danger. Britt is flabbergasted and hurt that Jason is refusing to tell the police what he actually witnessed for himself on Mount Emerson.

BRITT WANTS BACK UP FROM JASON
Jason counters that he can’t believe that Britt would want Anna punished. or sent to prison, or a mental facility after the trauma she endured while being locked up and mentally tortured while at Wyndemere.
He asks Britt, “How could you even say that you want her locked up or prosecuted for what she did when you knew she was being held prisoner and you did nothing to save her?” Britt is stunned by Jason’s response.
Coming up, official General Hospital spoilers share that on the upcoming Monday, September 14 episode, Jason confides in Carly (Laura Wright), while Britt is stung. In the video preview that aired at the end of the Friday, September 11 episode for this coming Monday, Britt says to Jason, “You don’t believe me. Do you?”
General Hospital head scribes, Chris Van Etten and Elizabeth Korte previously teased in their fall preview of the soap, “Britt and Jason have come a long way and fought a lot of enemies to be together. But the most stubborn obstacle to their happiness isn’t without, it’s within. Decisions Britt made to stay alive while under Cullum’s thumb will come back to haunt her and may prove too difficult for this unlikely couple to survive.”
So, what do you think will happen? Will Jason and Britt break-up over Britt’s lies and Jason’s unwillingness to report Anna’s crime against her? Do you want Jason and Britt to go their separate ways? If they do, will Britt become romantically involved with Dr. Tristan Roberts (Dean Geyer) ? If so, who do you pair Jason with? Anyone? Weigh-in via the comment section.
