OLTL’s Patrick J. Gibbons Shows Up On General Hospital: Will Wyatt Ultimately Be Peter’s Ticket To Freedom?
If you caught Monday’s episode of General Hospital, and the tweet tease from the series executive producer, Frank Valentini, a very familiar face to ABC’s One Life to Live fans popped up!
Patrick J. Gibbons (Ex-Sam Manning) was cast in the role of Wyatt. A young boy who stumbles upon the kidnapped Peter (Wes Ramsey) in the cabin.
In the episode, Wyatt announces he is part of the “PC Pioneers”, Squad #8 other wise known as the “Raging Raccoons.” He tells Peter he was practicing his bugle to earn his bugle badge when he heard Peter shouting. Wyatt continues that he found a key under the mat and unlocked the door to the cabin.
Peter begs him to not leave and has a way for him to earn another badge. Wyatt is not sure whether to believe the guy, but then Peter begs Wyatt to bring a grown-up back to the cabin with him,
With the fireworks about to happen for the 4th of July, Wyatt leaves Peter behind, and says he might bring him back some smores. However, he forgets his bugle.
Will Wyatt come back for his bugle and thus set Peter free, or will Peter use the bugle as a blunt instrument to club Liesl (Kathleen Gati) over the head with it and escape?
What did you think of seeing Patrick J. Gibbons on yesterday’s GH? Bring back memories of little Sam Manning? Share your thoughts via the comment section below.
I love him. I was hoping he would be staying much longer, in a contract role, and that he would need art therapy with Franco. I was so excited to see him, but then kinda bummed, it was only a Day role. I love this kid.
GH could also bring the character of wyatt back if they see the viewers liked him.Also maybe Wyatt tells someone about finding Peter but no one might believe him since the story might seem crazy.
I thought he looked familiar…good to see him again…can he be a bad seed child and knock off Peter by striking him with that bugle…let him be a serial killer and have him go to Port Charles and kill off some more…he could be the reason i will come back as a full time viewer-lol
Yes, Jimh…GH could do with a few evil little devil spawns to make mischief in Port Charles…I loved that spooky little guy who played Stonecold Junior Jake to a “t,” not to mention, the now twice-removed actress from the current Joss who once portrayed that “Child of the Corn”-loving youngster…she was a real treat!
i miss those child actors too
I didn’t recognize him! He was really good as Sam on OLTL. On GH, I thought the kid was quirky and funny. It would be fun to see how he plays into this story.
Seeing as how fast soaps move these days, Peter should be free soon instead of the way it was in the glory years when characters would be captive for months on end. To get back on the subject, I do hope Wyatt tells someone at the fireworks so Peter can get help getting out of the cabin.
Scout badges? This kid doesn’t even have any common sense, let alone a conscience. Compare his “smarts” to Spencer Cassadine for a good laugh. I’d be surprise if he could spell “wolverine”.
Did you mean to type that you’d be surpriseD? Well, at least you spelled wolverine correct. Work on your grammar next 😉
i think its very juvenile of you to comment on anything less than his acting abilities. LET ALONE commenting on a CHILD’S conscience and smarts. Sounds like we all know who is lacking the common sense here.
tata!!!
Well, gee, Matt, Franco had the common sense to protect Drew from a predator and he was about the same age. Save your insults for someone else.
Seriously, Matt? Since when can we not comment on a character that’s poorly written? No one’s criticizing the young actor. And by the way, Franco was about the same age when his common sense and conscience kicked in to protect Drew from a sexual predator. Guess it depends on the child.. or the writers.
Perfect response to Soaphound’s comment. Bravo! The actor has done a fine job. I waa so gladto see him again. He has a special bond with franco aka Todd Manning!
Just hope the kid doesn’t come back while Dr. O is there. She’ll eat him for lunch!
I loved him as Sam Manning on One Life to Live. He was super cute and so natural. I loved it when Sam rescued Dorian from Echo. I’m very happy to know that he’s still working as an actor. I wish Patrick a very long and happy career.
Anyone else hoping that we can have Mr. Howarth start playing a dual role…and bring back ( gulp ) Todd Manning. He’s an incredible actor who’s talents are far underused as Franco Baldwin. To the OLTL haters out there, I for one would love to see more of the OLTL characters used on GH. Let’s prove the network execs they are wrong.
I would as well. Missing Melissa Archer, Erika Slezak and Bob Woods. Would love to see them on GH.
I loved seeing Patrick back on screen. I can’t wait to see his scenes with Roger Howarth. I really hope they put Patrick on contract playing Wyatt.
The Wyatt character is not very bright.
I do not know of a boy his age that would be that totally numb-brained.
At times things are too stupid and make my brain bleed.
For Hell’s sake, I know the OLTL fans are still hoping for a complete hostile takeover of GH (and with the “Frodd involved in every damn storyline” thing, it’a already halfway there)
But seriously, this kid?? Even by child actor standards, his performances are cringeworthy. This kid really had a contract role on OLTL??
Patrick is as adorable as ever. It’s been great seeing him and knowing he’s still acting.
I knew it was him. I love oltl.

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.
