GENERAL HOSPITAL: Esme Remembers It All and Visits Ryan’s Grave: Will She Successfully Split Apart Sprina?
On General Hospital, Esme’s (Avery Pohl) memories have returned. She recalls her evil ways and all horrible things she did to several of the citizens of Port Charles, but more specifically to: Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali), Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Chavez), Cameron Webber (William Lipton) and Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy). Not to mention her epic fight with Ava Jerome (Maura West), and being locked up for months by Nikolas Cassadine (Marcus Coloma and later Adam Huss).
With her memories unleashed on Tuesday’s episode of General Hospital, what’s a girl to do? Visit the grave of her criminally insane late father, Ryan Chamberlain, that’s what!
Before she ‘visits’ Ryan, Esme calls Spencer. She seems to want to tell him the ‘good news’ but in the process hears Trina in the background, saying, “What does she want?” Esme tells Spencer that Ace can stay for Christmas with him, and hangs up.

Next, Esme looks at a photo of Spencer on her phone. She cries out that she was a fool to think she could tell him the truth, and he’d forgive her and that they could be together. She is well aware how much Spencer loves Trina, and if she told him she remembered that would drive him further away.
Conflicted as to what to believe about herself moving forward, she speaks to Ryan at this gravesite. She thinks it should be easy to be a good person, but nobody showed her how to do it, and she had to learn it on her own.
Esme says out loud that she has a good life, a good job, and an amazing child and home. She is happy, or at least she thinks she is. It’s hard to know as this feeling is so new to her.

Then. the flipside of Esme emerges. She tells her father that there is another path too, the crooked one, and it would be so easy to go back. She wonders what if she doesn’t have a choice. What if being bad is in her DNA? All of a sudden she realizes one of her gloves is missing. Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) found it on Spoon Island and showed Ava, as they are still trying to figure out who broke into Wyndemere.
With Esme’s memories back, is it only a matter of time that with her shrewdness she splits apart Sprina? Michael Fairman TV chatted with Avery Pohl in an all new interview about Esme’s feelings for Spencer and more.
So, what do you think will happen next? Will the evil Esme take over and seek havoc on Sprina? With Heather Webber (Daytime Emmy winner Alley Mills) returning this week, what will Esme’s mom have to say about all this? Share your thoughts in the comment section below.
Omg I hope she splits them up. Trina and Spencer together are really hard to take. They bring out the worst in each other and the actors seem to struggle with the pairing too. After months of watching self-righteous Trina and self-absorbed Spencer (he tried to get Trina to quit university & give up her future to follow him around!), I am 100% Team Esme. Trina was strong, intelligent and independent, but with Spencer she is verging on manipulative and petty, and it’s just not the same character.
Could not agree more. I have not taken to this Trina. I loved the original. But I can’t see either with Spencer. Esme & Spencer are it for me.
lol yall are truly sad & pathetic
Funny you are describing Esme. She has been manipulate and petty since arriving in Poet Charles. Having a baby and amnesia didn’t change her personality/characteristics although GH seems to want us to forget her behavior over the summer.
Esme will likely split them uo. It’s a soap opera. I would like to see Esme take responsibility. She could go to her boss Alexis for advice.
First of all. Esme needs to pay for what she did to Trina Joss and Cam. Second she needs to get her own man. Not Spencer. She doesn’t want to be friends with Trina. She is just trying to get Spencer to leave Trina. But it’s not going to work. Esme please leave Spencer alone. He is taken. The writers and FV need to hurry up and get evil Esme her own man. And not Spencer. Third I like this Trina. I don’t know why. So many people don’t like her. She is a very intelligent smart Beautiful Amazing Actress. Her and Spencer. Work really well together. So if no one else like this Trina ( Tabyana) I do. And I also liked the first Trina. Both of them are very great actresses. Each of them have there own style of acting. I don’t know why. Some of y’all are saying. I don’t like this Trina. I liked the first Trina better. Well get used to it. If you don’t like watching. Spencer and Trina. STOP WATCHING GH. I LOVE WATCHING THEM AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO. SPENCER N TRINA OUR # 1 COUPLE ON GH. EVERYONE HAVE A BLESSED NEW YEAR (2024)
I love the actress and I love the reborn Esme. The only way she can “stay on” is to continue to be reformed, regardless of her bad, past behavior.— I can’t stand nuTrina—no excitement —such a weak , lackluster personality —no there there.
I think that deep down Spence still loves Esme and Ace is subconsciously a means to an end.
Let’s keep Esme on as a good girl with a little harmless devil in her.
Id really hope that Esme takes the high road despite what her loony mother told her. Esme has a chance to embrace a new beginning and needs to move on past Spencer. I think GH also needs to introduce some new blood into the show. Liked the episode with Alexa and Gregory skydiving and then kissing.

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.
