GENERAL HOSPITAL: Carly and Valentin Hit the Sheets

The March 6 episode of General Hospital brought plenty of drama and set a few stories spinning into another axis. First and foremost, Carly (Laura Wright) is reeling from her blow-out conversation with Josslyn (Eden McCoy), where she learned that the reason her daughter is staying a WSB agent by her own choice is to take down Sonny (Maurice Benard) and those like him.

Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) is there in Carly’s kitchen and tells her, he is more concerned that Josslyn will turn them in. He is not convinced she wouldn’t do it, as much as Carly says she knows he’s in danger. In a moment of realization, Carly doesn’t even know who her daughter is anymore. Valentin says she didn’t know her daughter as well as she thought, since Josslyn had lied to her face for over a year.

Carly blames herself. Valentin says this is all Jack Brennan’s (Chris McKenna) doing. Carly says it’s bigger than that, and tells Valentin Josslyn’s plan to bring down Sonny. As Carly cries, she admits when she looked at Josslyn tonight, she saw herself when she first came to town, determined to destroy her mother, Bobbie Spencer’s, life.

Noting how working for the WSB had affected Valentin, Anna and Jack, Carly doesn’t want the same thing to happen to her daughter. Valentin says Josslyn will be fine, because she has a mom like her, and even the WSB can’t destroy her.

CAN’T FIGHT THE FEELING

Carly wants Valentin to run and save himself, but he refuses to leave her. Valentin says what may have started out as using her, is not the same. “We are real partners now, and I’m not leaving you,” a passionate Valentin says . Suddenly, Carly kisses him, and before you know it, they are ripping each other’s clothes off, and having sex in Carly’s bedroom.

Elsewhere, Josslyn went to confront Jason (Steve Burton), for telling Carly that she was in the WSB. He explains he just couldn’t lie to his best friend anymore. Josslyn threw in Jason’ face that Carly had no trouble lying to him about hiding Valentin in the attic. Jason asked Josslyn if she was going to tell anyone about Valentin. Concerned that her mother would be brought up on charges for treason, she will not tunn her in, but she needs Jason to convince her mother to get rid of Valentin.

JOSSLYN THROWS FACTS IN JASON’S FACE

As their heated confrontation continued, Josslyn revealed that she’d distracted Carly with her real target: Sonny and people like him. Jason asked if that was true? Josslyn revealed that sometimes when she thinks about injustice, Sonny comes to mind. Jason told Josslyn Jack was manipulating her. Once again ,she threw Jason’s past in his face, talking about how at the same age as she is now, Sonny had manipulated him to join his crime organization. Jason realizes just how deep Josslyn is into the world of the WSB.

MY BEST FRIEND WANTS MY (EX)-HUSBAND

Finally, Lulu (Alexa Havins) comes clean to Maxie (Kirsten Storms) about her feelings for Nathan (Ryan Paevey). After plenty of back and forth, Maxie tells her best friend, she is OK that she is with anyone … but her ex-husband. As much as Lulu keeps telling Maxie, that Maxie chose Spinelli, she is not OK with Lulu being involved with Nathan. When Lulu left, Maxie looked sadly at the photo of herself with Spinelli and her kids, while Lulu, outside the door, tries to steel herself for what’s next.

So, what did you think about Carly and Valentin hitting the sheets? Do you think it will be a one-night stand, or will Carly and Valentin not be able to resist one another, complicating the entire situation with Jack Brennan? Do you agree with how Josslyn came down on Jason about his choice getting into life with the mob and Sonny?

And, do you think Maxie will not change her mind and want to be with Nathan, or be OK with a life with Spinelli and her children, now that she knows Lulu and Nathan have feelings for each other? Share your thoughts via the comment section below, but first, you can catch the scenes again where Lulu talks to Maxie about her feelings for Nathan.

I have to admit, the ending with Valentin and Carly was HOT! I was like…wow. Today’s show was great!

Reply

OMGosh, Valentin & Carly were HOT together. What a scene. I never visualized them together but they need to STAY together. What a power couple they could be.

So what man will be next for Carly? Sidwell lol

Nathan?, lol, try Peter. Like father like son. Faison’s kid Peter that’s right.

And the writing revisionism continues. The situation Joss was in when Brennan manipulated her into joing the WSB is not remotely the same as Jason’s circumstances when he joined Corinthos Coffee, LLC.

For one thing, Sonny didn’t put Jason in those circumstances. His drunken brother AJ did. And the rest of the family couldn’t deal with the results, when the old Jason who liked to wear dorky Xmas sweaters, and wanted to be a doctor, was no longer there. They pushed him away, so he took a job offer from one of the few people who accepted his “new self” as he was.

Joss, on the other horn, was out of her depth chasing down Cyrus the Virus, though justified in wanting him to pay for killing Dex. And of course she was 666% justified in shooting Cyrus for coming at her with an axe. But she should have called Jason to clean that mess up. Or even Sonny. Because contrary to the lies she tells herself now, Sonny would have taken care of that problem for her, and wouldn’t have asked for anything in return.

Unlike Brennan. But given all that’s happened the last few days, between Joss, Carly, Jason, Britt, Brennan, and Val the Bastard, I suspect we might be seeing Brennan down here in Hell soon. All of those mentioned will be suspects, but it’s possible that Jason might take the rap for it, and spend a few months in Pentonville, before he’s cleared of the charges. Which of course would account for his upcoming absence.

Reply

Satan, you are so right about how Jason got involved with Sonny all those years ago. I sincerely hope you are wrong about Brennan’s possible demise. I’m with Carly on this one. I think there is a good person deep inside Brennan.

Reply

Well we all know that death is sometimes a temporary setback in Port Charles. Somebody with WSB connections could always convincingly fake his own death. But I doubt Carly would forgive him if he set Jason up on a bogus murder charge.

Reply

How do I unsee that? While Jax is from Down Under, Valentin travels to down under.

Reply

Valentin went from Carly’s attic to her basement.

Reply

He certainly did!

Reply

Carly is nuts. For decades she’s been tied to mobster Sonny and, by default, she has tied her children to him. Now, she’s hits the sheets with an ex-spy turned wanted criminal at the same time that she’s dating the head of an international espionage agency. Does this woman have any judgement whatsoever? I certainly hope this was a one and done episode. I am glad that Carly was reminded of her coming to Port Charles to destroy Bobbie’s life during the confrontation with Josslyn.

I am not pleased that Maxie has a problem with Lulu and Nathan’s developing connection. Maxie has moved on with Spinelli. Why shouldn’t Nathan move on with his life? I hope Maxie isn’t about to change her mind and want to reconnect with Nathan.

Reply

I understand Maxie’s reaction though. She’s still processing so much. She was in love with Nathan when he “died”, and she was in a coma when he returned from the dead. Yes, Spinelli was her choice but it would be painful for Maxie to see her best friend with her ex husband, a man she still hasn’t gotten over.
It might not be rational but who says love is rational? I get it.

Reply

Exactly. Nobody wants to see their ex date a friend. No matter how amicably they may have parted. Maxie already has enough on her plate establishing a new dynamic with Nathan. Now her dynamic with Lulu is forever changed also.

Reply

Carly has had at least TWO serious lapses in judgement in the past:

1) She hooked up with Frodd, who we were supposed to believe was Franco. The serial killer who had her son Michael raped while he was in prison on charges that were complete dragonshit. And who made Jason & Sam’s life a living Hell (and not in a good way) for a couple of years.

2) She later hooked up with Drew. Though at least he hadn’t become a complete asshole yet at the time, it still was a bizzare pairing.

Oddly enough the excuse given for BOTH of these hookups were essentially the same thing – they happened during the times that Jason was presumed “dead”. Frodd pretended to be Jason’s “twin” for a while. And of course Drew actually IS Jason’s twin. So Carly somehow convinced herself she could hold on to a piece of Jason by shagging his brother.

And didn’t she also briefly hook up with AJ again during his last time up on earth – also during Jason’s frst extended absence? Carly did have her own history with AJ back in the day, of course. But if she hooked up with him in 2013, it probably would bave been the “missing Jason” excuse.

Reply

Let me start out saying how the heck did Valentin and Carly end up sleeping together after he got kicked in the nuts? and I don’t like this pairing for the record, mainly because once again Carly gotta be paired with every guy on the show, her and sonny are the sluttiest characters on GH. Loved Josslyn ripping off on both Carly and later Jason, and then theres Lulu, oh boy these Spencer girls are something else, I know she was in a coma for four years and she probably wants some action but her trying to ration trying to hook up with her bff husband is just to much, I’m team Maxie here, Lulu seems so desperate its off coming.

Reply

I agree with all of this. Carly should wear underwear which reads,” Open all night.” The sex scene between her and Valentin was kind of cringe. It also reminded me of the sex scene between Anna and Valentin only that was epic and passionate. Also, Anna didn’t have that goofy, weird expression on her face like Carly did when Valentin went downtown.

Reply

Didn’t like Josslyn attacking Jason the way she did. She wants to bring down mob and gang leaders, she better remember her dad. He was no saint. Plus she is a murderer, another law enforcement hiding behind the badge.
Carly is always going to bed with somebody, so why not Valetin. That will make a few other women mad.
Please someway, some how put Jason with Diane , anyone but Britt.

Reply

Jason and Diane? That would be like pairing up Steve McQueen with Lucy from the Peanuts cartoon.

Reply

Joss did not murder Cyrus – he was coming after her.

Jasper Jacks – a corporate raider – is a far cry from a mob kingpin. I’m saying that and I didn’t even like Jax.

Reply

Joslynn does have criminal in her family though, and some would say he’s worse then sonny whose just a local criminal but her uncle jerry Jax is an international terrorist.

Reply

Maxie made her choice. She chose Spinelli. She should have no say in who Nathan dates. As for Carlie she will have Sonny, Jason and Brennan ticked at her when they find out she was not only hiding Valentine but sleeping with him.

Reply

Maxie was ok with losing Nathan to someone else because she chose Spinelli. She did not count on losing her best friend though. They may find a way to co-exist and be cordial, but their best-friend dynamic is gone. I don’t believe this is the real Nathan anyway. Maxie said as soon as she saw him, she didn’t have the same feelings for him. I believe it was the real Nathan, she would have.

Reply

When Carly lunged aggressively toward Valentin
to give him a big ole kiss, I was truly hoping he’d push her away and say that it’s not a good idea. But NO! Not only was he a willing participant, he went south of the border. I lost some respect for Valentin. I guess no man can resist Carly’s charms. Paging Anna! The love of Valentin’s life! You are needed back home ASAP.

Reply

I know. I was hoping Valentin would be Anna’s savior. Maybe they’ll have Jason be her savior to explain his upcoming absence. I do not like this Carly Valentin pairing. Zero chemistry and the love scenes were ick.

Reply

Sexy love scenes don’t appear to be in Laura Wright’s wheel house. The expression on her face as Valentin did his thing was hilariously awkward and yeah, kind of icky.

Reply

Totally hated the Valentin Carly sex scene – Josslyn Jason scene

Reply

I’ve seen better men for Carly than Valentine, like Brennen. They were hedonistic.

Reply

Lulu is getting on my nerves and Carly should not have slept with Valentine I am getting mad with the story wanted Lulu to get back with her ex not Dante and Liz

Reply

Maxie should let Nathan do what he wants!

o
Yea, Valcarly is what l have been hoping for since day damned one!!!!!!! Finally time for some great love in the afternoon.Take these two as far as they can go together.Yes yes yes

Kelly Sullivan Gives High Praise to ‘General Hospital’s’ Maura West Recalling When Ava Shot Connie (Exclusive)

Maura West and Kelly Sullivan

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!

Steve Burton

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.

Jason and Britt

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.
