GH’s Kristina Wagner On Felicia’s Concern Over Maxie’s Emotional State

While Maxie (Kirsten Storms) knows exactly where baby Louise is, not many other people know, especially her mother, Felicia (Kristina Wagner).

Now, with Kristina Wagner back on-contract at General Hospital, it opens up more angles to play in the ongoing saga of “What happened to Maxie and Peter’s (Wes Ramsey) Baby?”

GH viewers know that Louise is “Bailey” and being taken of by Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton).  However, according to the latest issue of Soap Opera Digest on newsstands now, look for Felicia to be very worried over Maxie’s attitude toward finding her baby.

Wagner shared to SOD on Felicia: “She is absolutely concerned about Maxie. Why is she behaving this way? Is she traumatized to a point where she is not frantically looking for her baby?”

The actress goes on to say about her alter-ego: “Felicia thinks ‘What is wrong with you?  Your baby’s missing. Why are you not (falling apart)?’ And Maxie says, ‘I have to stay calm for my other children.’  She has a way of justifying it, but Felicia is questioning Maxie’s behavior.”

Look for Felicia to be more determined than ever to help find Maxie’s baby, which we know could spell trouble for everyone!

So, do you hope Felicia learns the truth about Louise, and helps Maxie with her cover-up? Or do you hope Felicia helps get the little one back in Maxie’s arms sooner than later? Share your thoughts in the comment section below.

I think it’s actually kind of insulting that Anna, Felicia, and Mac – with all their combined years in cop and/or spy related experience – can’t seem to put 6+6+6 together with the obvious clues that Maxie knows EXACTLY where her baby is, and that’s why she’s not as upset about her “missing” child as one would expect her to be.

Furthermore, if Louise were REALLY missing, wouldn’t Maxie have called her daddy Frisco about it by now? Yes, they don’t have the ideal father/daughter relationship, but there’s no way that Frisco wouldn’t overturn every rock between Hell and Port Charles looking for his grandchild, if Maxie asked him to. And are we to believe that Frisco knows nothing about any of this??

Of course this is all being dragged out for the purposes of propping Whiny Heiny, and to a lesser degree, Chase – who inserted himself into the situation.

Satan, I love you dearly, but please don’t cast my darling Chase in a bad light. But your point is well made: Chase can figure out this mess, and Tracy in even less time. But the intrepid WSB is at a loss once again. It must be embarrassing for intelligent actors like Finola Hughes and Tristan Rogers to “play dumb”. At least when Dante plays dumb, it’s entirely believable…almost second nature.

I’m neutral on Chase. Don’t hate him, don’t really like him…. I just don’t think he belonged in this story. Val the bastard was really a much better fake daddy for that poor kid, because he had his own issues with Whiny Heiny, and in my most unholy opinion, it would have been better if Maxie & BrookLynn had let him in on the plan. Yeah he might have been upset that BrookLynn lied to him to preserve her family’s business interest, but he would have kept up the act to keep the kid safe from Heiny.

Chase SHOULD have issues with Heiny – he did almost poison him to death after all – but he seems to have forgotten all about that.

I absolutely adore Chase but wish they’d stop writing him as some hapless Disney character. As far as both you and Satan pointing out the obvious; that is, that the WSB experts and detectives were unable to connect the dots, is insulting at best, and of course, I agree. Geez. Please end this irritating, endless and stupid storyline! But of course to do that, they’d have to kill off Peter. For some inexplicable reason, they are unable kill off a character all the fans hate but are perfectly able to kill off babies. Back to the subject at hand; I am delighted to see the effervescent Felicia back. I love her, and I love her dynamics with Maxie. Kristen Wagner’s Felicia is a true treasure, and so ageless. I just love her.

You’re right about KW aging very well. For the second time this month, the hair department harkened back to a classic style. First, Tracy and her retro braid buns, then Tuesday, Felicia with a braided ponytail at yoga. Granted, back in the day KW had much longer hair, but it still is reminiscent of her first years on the show.

Satan-Mac has been more of a father to Maxie than Frisco has ever been. Frisco is Maxie’s father in name only. Mac, however, has been a consistent presence in Maxie’s life.

The unfortunate writing of Frisco as a “deadbeat dad” isn’t the issue here though. It’s the fact that he’s the supposed leader of the WSB, which is supposed to be an elite spy/law enforcement agency. Certainly somebody who one would want to have as a resource if their child was missing.

So in other words, a big red flag to the fact that the child is not actually missing.

At least the writers finally realized they were missing a beat (or 2) in this storyline. Thank goodness Tracy is being portrayed as her normal smart self and easily figured it out. Then again, she knew BLQ was never pregnant.

How much longer do they need to stretch Heinrik’s existence on this show?

I think Felicia should just come right out and ask Maxi if she knows more than she is saying. She doesn’t seem to bothered by upsetting her in other ways even going to such lengths of going to G.H and seeking out a doctor friend for help.
Has she ever asked herself if Maxi doesn’t want her baby found, then why not and go from there. I can’t believe that she and the others have not figured out the obvious answer, PETER!

In the just released General Hospital spoilers video for the week of June 22-26, Lulu tells her mother, Laura (Genie Francis), “Dante and I have to get to Rocco before Cullum!” Meanwhile, Rocco (Finn Carr) looks angered and emotional as Britt walks through their cabin hideout.

Maurice Benard Gives High Praise to ‘General Hospital’ Writers; Teases Upcoming Sonny Scenes with Anna, Jason, Justine and Ric

Published

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.
