Sharing several photos of himself with Harrison. Easton expressed, “Gregory Harrison. One of the finest actors I’ve ever had the privilege of working with and an even better human being. I learned so much from you, my friend, and it was an absolute honor to get to share a stage with you these past three years. Your talent, grace and powerful presence will be greatly missed around the studio. @gnhsurf @generalhospitalabc #gh #fathersandsons”

In addition, Josh Swickard (Chase), Harrison’s other on-screen son told Soap Opera Digest on Gregory’s exit, “Sometimes when you’re working on a show like this and someone plays your dad, it spills over. He really felt like a father figure to me in so many ways. Still does. He’s such a good human being. He’s been around the block in life, in Hollywood, and then some, and he’s just a wealth of knowledge. And he’s a humble human being.”
Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis, GH) also took to X and shared her sentiments on her time working with Harrison. Grahn said, “Was hard to say good bye to working with my friend, Gregory Harrison. What a treat to share the stage with this guy, and getting to know him was a gift. I truly love & respect everything about him. And I know he’s seeing this. He doesn’t post, but likes to read mine.”

Too soon, wanted more of him with Tracy
I wish they hadn’t killed of the character, his chemistry with Jane and Nancy was so beautiful to watch,and what I love about it was that not the typical love story soap opera triangle, it was a man who had two beautiful friendship with these two opposite strong will women.
People can live with ALS for quite a while. Not sure what the hurry was in writing him off except for May sweeps. Too bad for the fans.
My sister died from ALS. Much more happens to a person with ALS. They didn’t show the real bad stuff
He certainly brought out the best in every relationship.
I’m still crying…
It brought back memories of my father dieing. Very emotional show today
Brought back memories for me too. Very true-to-life heartbreaking scene. Michael Easton’s performance as the grief-stricken son grabbed my heart through the screen… In real life he’d cared for his mom who eventually passed, and it seems likely that scene brought all those emotions back for him too.
So sad. I loved his character. He is a great actor and I wish he could have stayed on longer.
I agree. I never wanted them to do this story to begin with; I’m not a fan of fatal diseases stories and GH has been writing them back-to-back. They never did that in the past; not to this extent. But unfortunately they did, and it was incredibly poignant and well done. I’m glad, like with Britt and Franco’s story, we didn’t have to watch them suffer and deteriorate. That is way too heavy, too depressing, and not the “escapism” that many of us watch soaps for. Great loss for the show of a fantastic actor and character, in my opinion the best new character they’ve brought on in years.
I am crying still. So sad to write him off. Wished he could’ve been on for longer. Was a breath of air to the GH family. Heartbreaking for so many. Little violet losing Grampa it was like when my daughter lost her Grampa she was about same age as Violet.
True gut punch. I’m hoping they don’t do flashbacks; I’ve run out of tissues….
I will miss him so much. I’ve enjoyed his wonderful acting and good looks, which seems to improve with age. I thought he was so good looking especially as Gonzo on M.A.S.H and Trapper John. Good luck with whatever comes next Gregory, it was such a joy having you here on GH.
been watching GH for years – probably one of the best episodes I’ve seen in a long time. “A” game all the way around…Sorry to see Gregory go – they should have given him something curable, His chemistry with both sons and with Tracy and Alexis was amazing.
I was hoping Finn could’ve found a way to help his Dad. Such a sad ending. It’s a big loss for GH. The actors & fans will really miss him on the show. He was a very kind man full of compassion. You don’t see much of that on TV or in life anymore. So much violence and turmoil today sadness. We need more joy in this world. I think Mac is a good person to bring back to GH they need a good man like Gregory was on the show.
Mac is coming back. John York who plays Mac was very ill. Thankfully, he’s on the mend and is back filming his scenes.
I would have like to have seen his relationship with Tracy develope. Such a loss of a possible great story by letting his character die so soon
Well, leave it to GH to strike gold twice! When Max Gail was on I couldn’t help but watch everyone of his scenes. The actors on GH loved him! Then, GH does it again, Gregory Harrison! He might be grasping a gold statue soon? He is terrific. He has all the charm you would ever want. Him and Jane Elliot were pure gold! She must be pleased to be back on GH and be front and center with so many talented actors. Her and Greg had such wonderful chemistry. Every scene they did was a master class! Thank you Gregory and stay put Jane!
His final scene where Finn is helping him get ready for bed is so touching and sweet. His memories just before falling asleep are so beautiful and then you know what’s about to happen. The music too brings tears. And Violet’s voice saying “Goodnight Grandpa” is so precious and heartbreaking.
Aside from my dislike of lengthy addiction stories, Finn’s reaction to losing his father doesn’t track for me. Finn keeps replaying their argument in his mind? Why?! His father gave him the most beautiful words of love and praise the night before his death. His father also gave him a very heartfelt apology and tried mitigate any regrets Finn may have had. Finn (anyone) couldn’t have asked for better closure and resolution. Also, if Gregory HAD to die, what a blessing he went peacefully in his sleep and didn’t have to suffer with worsening ALS symptoms any longer. Gregory was already dreading losing his faculties and feeling like a burden. He was spared so much pain. Anyway, I agree with those who wish he could have just been misdiagnosed and saved by Finn, and gone on to have a romance with Tracy.
I meant to say the writers, in my opinion, severely missed the mark here. In my opinion, you can’t write the most beautiful ending to a father/son relationship, then have Finn react as if their beautiful conversation didn’t even happen.
Why?? Such a not good ending at all!!! I kept hoping Finn or one of the doctors would discover Gregory was MISDIAGNOSED. And to make Finn relive the harsh words was cruel. His dad APOLOGIZED AND TOLD HIM HE LOVED HIM ! Not only that but you had Finn totally BLOW HIS SOBRIETY!!!!!? SERIOUSLY?? To put it bluntly YOU SO CALLED WRITERS SUCK!!!!!Whats next you GOING TO MSKE HIM ABUSIVE TOO ??? BELIVE IT IR NOT SOME PEOPLE ACTUALLY DONT EVER LOOSE THEIR SOBRIETY!! They go to meetings they bust their asses to stay sober yes they have slips!! BUT YOU MADE FINN TOTALLY BLOW HIS ON PURPOSE!!!! REALLY WHY!!! NOT ONLY IS YOUR SO CALKED GOOD STORY GONNA EFFECT FINN BUT VIOLET AND CHASE!!! NOW THEY COULD NOT JUST LOSE A GRANDPA AND DAD BUT A BROTHER AND FATHER TOO!!! Like I said writers YOU S U C K!!!!!!!!
Writers did a sorry job of research. ALS is nothing like they showed. My husband died from ALS I know.

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.
