Kim Delaney, beloved for her roles as Jenny Gardner on All My Children and as Detective Diane Russell on NYPD: Blue, found herself on the wrong side of the law again. In a report from TMZ, Delaney has now been arrested for an alleged felony assault involving a domestic disturbance.

Trouble began for Kim on Saturday morning March 29th at 10:15 am Los Angeles time in a domestic disturbance involving her and her partner, James Morgan at her home, according to law enforcement.

According to police, the two had gotten into a heated argument that turned physical. TMZ shared their sources related that when paramedics arrived on scene they checked to see if both Kim and John were OK. Following that, they both were handcuffed and taken into custody.

Delaney was charged with felony assault likely to cause great bodily injury. According to PEOPLE, Delaney was arrested for assault with a deadly weapon, while Morgan was arrested for domestic violence. Morgan and Delaney were still in custody as of March 30, according to the Marina Del Rey Sheriff’s station.

This isn’t the first time Kim has run into trouble with law enforcement. In 2002, Kim was involved in a drunk driving incident that resulted in her being dropped from the cast of CSI: Miami the next year and entering a rehab program  Then, in 2024, Kim was sued by a motorcyclist, Dzhamal Badalov, for allegedly fleeing the scene of an accident in Los Angeles after crashing into him on his motorcycle while  Delaney was driving in Los Angeles.

Daytime fans most recently saw Kim take over the role of Jackie Templeton (originated by Oscar nominee, Demi Moore) on General Hospital. Kim had a recurring role on the soap from 2020-2021. She got her big break when Agnes Nixon cast her as a young Jenny Gardner on All My Children. She played the part from 1981-1984 receiving a Daytime Emmy nomination along the way for her performances. Later in her career, Kim moved to primetime and placed a detective Diane Russell on NYPD: Blue from 1995-2003 and appeared numerous television series including Army Wives.

Most recently, Kim was seen in the lead role of Mari Gilbert in the true-life crime story, The Long Island Serial Killer: A Mother’s Hunt for Justice in 2021.

Alcohol related I’m sure this woman is possessed by it

So sorry to hear this. Hope they both get the help they need. Kim is a great actor. She’s someone’s mother and it will take time for her to try and stay sober.

You have absolutely no concrete proof she’s possessed by alcohol. Maybe you’re telling people your story.

Sure Jan

She does have a history of alcoholism

Instead of attacking someone look it up. It appears she DOES have an alcoholism problem.

This isn’t a surprising comment from the soap opera Karen.

I’m sorry to hear this about her. She’s such a good actress.

Hey she’s human, she actually a very cool lady, she’ll be ok.

Oh, it’s nice to have someone that knows all about her, cool!

No wonder GH never brought her back for any of the important events in her character’s family’s life (weddings, funerals, alcohol interventions).
The woman needs help…

Hope she receives the help she needs

Seems to me , she has anger , and alcohol issues

I liked her in her younger days but haven’t since. She needs to get her act together

I pray she gets it together I loved her in the soaps.
We all make mistakes.

Let’s hope Kim gets the help she needs.

On GH, if Chase needs a visit from his mother, I’d suggest Fiona Hutchinson as a Jackie recast.

Your SNARKY MEAN comments are not called for. The article didn’t say the incident was ALCOHOL RELATED. Domestic situations happen every in homes you never know when or if it’s going to get physical. Your judgement in this situation is appalling.

It is getting to the point where I wish Mr. Fairman became like other sites that don’t allow comments. I do enjoy his news stories and would still read his site even with no comments

Hasn’t stopped you from making comments though, has it?

Well.. first off, I love reading your comments Violet. I guess I should have been more up front, yes I post comments, and sometimes will zing a zinger back… but I never take low shots at actors who are facing issues. That said, you are correct…I do enjoy reading other soap fans thoughts on the shows, such as yours, Sstan’s, Harry’s, Rebecca1’s etc

Hi GH fan; thanks! 😉

I remember similar comments being said about Tyler Christopher and then those same folks felt pretty rotten when he passed. We don’t know what is going on in folks’ lives, what their psychological make- up is, and what they are going through. Let’s just root for Kim Delaney to he happy and healthy.

Prayers for her and those who love her.

I really liked her on Army wives and was disappointed when she was dropped due to alcohol issues.

Wow.she is such a good actress I watched her on all her shows sorry for all of your troubles Kim hang in there come back too general hospital where u.belong

This week on all-new episodes of General Hospital, the race is on! Can Lulu (Alexa Havins) and Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) get to Rocco (Finn Carr) and Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) in time to ensure their safety from Cullum (Andrew Hawkes)? Can Carly (Laura Wright) with the help of her brother, Lucas (Van Hansis) rescue Josslyn (Eden McCoy) from captivity at Wyndemere? These questions may be answered, plus the return of the one and only Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) are on tap!

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. Does Rocco know his parents are on the way to find them, or has Cullum already tracked them down to the British Virgin Islands?

Back in Port Charles, Carly is informing Lucas that his niece, “is a WSB agent.” She knows Josslyn (Eden McCoy) is being held against her will at Wyndemere, and she has to find a way to get her out. Lucas agrees with Carly’s plan of, “We go in and we don’t leave without Josslyn!” Elsewhere, Josslyn is looking worried for her future as she is stuck in captivity thanks to Cassius, Cullum and Sidwell!

FINOLA HUGHES RETURNS

The final moments of the teaser promo reveal Anna in a psychiatric clinic in France. We have not seen her for months after Cullum, Sidwell and Pascal fed her hallucinogenics to make her believe her arch nemesis, Cesar Faison was alive!

Now, the doctors walk towards her hospital bed, where we see the super spy calmly knitting. Is Anna back to normal and playing everyone to get out of her predicament, or does she still remain deeply traumatized … or both?

Take a look at the rest of the official GH spoilers for the week below.

Willow gets an unwelcome surprise. Trina sticks to her guns. “Nathan” wants reassurance. Ethan advises Ava. Brook Lynn receives an update.

Now weigh-in: Do you think Anna is still mentally off-balance, or OK, and just pretending to be troubled to get out of France and get back to Port Charles? Will Josslyn finally be rescued, or will Carly and Lucas find themselves locked up with her? And, who will get to Britt and Rocco first? Cullum, or Dante and Lulu?

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.
