On General Hospital, Carly (Laura Wright) and Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) are now dealing with the fallout of their discovery, the dead body of Jack Brennan. While Carly became a suspect, now the two need to figure out just who was responsible for the former WSB Port Charles Bureau chief’s sudden ending.

Meanwhile, Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) is trying to put her shattered life back together, after almost killing Dr. Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud), hallucinating she was seeing a dead Peter August (Wes Ramsey) and trying to shake off years of trauma at the hands of Cesar Faison (Anders Hove).

While it has become apparent that Valentin and Carly love each other, the same holds true for Valentin and Anna, but is it differently, now that the former lovers are apart? However, it appears when Anna is in trouble, Valentin shows up to save her. That is not lost on Carly, who up until now has tried to be adult about the whole situation, but how long will that last?

Michael Fairman TV caught up with both Daytime Emmy-winning Lead Actresses on the red carpet at the 53rd annual Daytime Emmy Awards and asked them to weigh-in on what viewers can expect, and what’s it has been like working with leading man, James Patrick Stuart.

Laura Wright explained, “James is hilarious. I would say most of our dress rehearsals are laughing it out because we’ve got to show up for taping, but he’s very funny.” Finola Hughes echoed that with, “He’s a very funny person, always,” adding, “I couldn’t be in a scene with him and Amanda Setton (Brook Lynn, GH). It was him, me, and Amanda one time. We couldn’t get through the scene!”

The discussion turned to if GH viewers will see Anna and Carly fighting over the love of Valentin. Laura Wright shared, “Not in the way you would think. It’s not your typical triangle. We’ll say that.” Finola Hughes concurred, “It’s not your typical triangle!”

Last Friday night, Scott Clifton (Liam, The Bold and the Beautiful) took home the gold for the Outstanding Lead Actor in a Daytime Drama series at the 53rd annual Daytime Emmy Awards. The win makes Clifton a four-time Daytime Emmy winner, and his second in the Lead Actor category.

Clifton’s heralded performance in Liam’s inoperable brain tumor storyline back in 2025; where he tried to protect his loved ones from learning the news while dealing with the seeming reality of his own fate and his life being cut short, touched the Emmy voters,

The story and Scott’s performance was the ticket to victory in a year that included fellow nominees: Eric Braeden (Victor, Y&R), Christian LeBlanc (Michael, Y&R), Steve Burton (Jason, GH) and castmate Thorsten Kaye (Ridge, B&B).

AFTER A BIT OF NERVES, SCOTT’S EMMY NIGHT TOOK A TURN FOR THE BETTER

Now, in a postscript to the emotional rollercoaster on Emmy night, Scott chatted with Michael Fairman for an exclusive conversation on You Tube’s Michael Fairman Channel.

After at first, feeling a bit of apprehension getting ready for the Daytime Emmy red carpet with his lady love, Elle Anderson, once he got to the rough and tumble hub-bub of the red carpet, Scott said he felt a bit more calm. From there, he headed inside to his table where Clifton expressed he was seated with other B&B nominees: Brad Bell (EP and head writer), Lawrence Saint-Victor (Carter) and Heather Tom (Katie) and her husband James and their son, Zane. and then his TV dad, Don Diamont (Bill) and his wife Cindy Ambuehl. However, things got interesting!

Since Lead Actor was the second to last award presented of the night, when Scott’s name was called, he shared, “It was a blur. I had to ask people, ‘What the hell did I say up there afterwards?’ But, I do remember the moment of my name being called. I really don’t like it when people tell me what their bet is. I’ll never stop somebody, but it does make me uncomfortable when people go, ‘You’re gonna win.'”

WHEN YOUR NAME IS CALLED YOU BETTER KISS YOUR TV DAD

Scott continued, “So, I think probably they were starting to read the names of the nominees, and Don Diamont is sitting right next to me, and he leans over and he goes, ‘I know that you’re about to win.’ And I went, ‘Don! What?’ He was screwing with me, I thought, but then he goes, ‘And if you do win, you have to give me a big wet kiss right on the lips on camera.’ The second he was finished with that sentence, I hear from the stage, ‘Scott Clifton!'”

“I didn’t even get a chance to process this,” recalls Clifton. “So, I grabbed Don’s face and I gave him a big kiss on the mouth, and I don’t know if that made it on to the You Tube broadcast or not. My first order of business was, ‘Oh, my God, I won. I have to kiss Don on the mouth.'”

As for his acceptance speech, Clifton revealed, “I didn’t write anything. I didn’t think of anything beforehand. I really did just kind of wing it and I didn’t know what I had said. But, I remembered feeling like this was the first time I’ve ever felt like I had earned the right to think about what I wanted to say next. I’m so conscious of wasting people’s time. I usually rush through things and stammer, I’m sure there was some of that, but I felt peaceful. I just felt washed over in gratitude.”

FOUR OF THE LAST SIX LEAD ACTOR EMMY WINS ARE MEN FROM THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL

In the last six years, the leading men of The Bold and the Beautiful have taken home the Lead Actor Emmy four times! John McCook (Eric) and twice for Thorsten Kaye, and now Scott Clifton. The newly-awarded Lead Actor expressed that team B&B has quite strong actors in the cast, no matter what anyone may have thought!

“It feels to be like The Bold and Beautiful was known for a longtime for its sexy leading men and steamy storylines and it’s high concept fashion house stories,” reflected Scott. “Then it was like General Hospital, they’re the ones with the really good actors. You’ve got your Maurice Benard’s (Sonny Corinthos) for example. However, The Bold and Beautiful has really kind of proven itself that we can do the acting thing too. We do it very well, and I think we have one of the better casts on daytime and yes, I know I’m biased.”

BRINGING HOME THE GOLD FOR THE TEAM

Clifton also shared that as the Daytime Emmy ceremony unfolded up until his victory, The Bold and the Beautiful had been shut out. “I think we needed a win as a group, either Heather or I to bring something home,” admits Scott.

“As our night went on, nobody had been given us any awards, and I don’t know how Brad Bell was in such good spirits. If I were in Brad’s shoes, I would have been really bummed to have a night without any Emmys for the show to take home. I think it was important to all of us, and did not matter which one of us got it, but that we got one,” concluded Clifton.

You can catch the full conversation with Scott below, which includes a heartwarming and emotional story of what happened when Scott showed his young son. Ford. that he won the Daytime Emmy and Ford’s reaction to it!

So, what did you think about Scott Clifton’s Daytime Emmy winning victory for Lead Actor and the insights he shared from Emmy night? Let us know via the conversation below.

On General Hospital, the marriage of Michael Corinthos (Rory Gibson) and Willow Tait (Katelyn MacMullen) took a massive nosedive after she had an affair with his uncle Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison).

But nobody was prepared for what came next, which saw nasty custody fights between the now exes over their children, Amelia and Wiley, and then Willow shooting Drew and injecting him with a paralytic drug and that’s all just for starters.

Fast-forward and one has to ask, deep down do these two still really love each other? We saw signs of it. Remember when Michael came to Willow’s rescue after Jacinda (Paige Herschell) drugged her? But, where are they at now?

We went right to the source, Rory Gibson and Katelyn MacMullen, to ask them theie thoughts on the messy feelings of Michael and Willow during Michael Fairman TV’s chat with the duo on the red carpet at the 53rd annual Daytime Emmy Awards.

LOVE IS A BATTLEFIELD

Rory Gibson weighed-in on the state of Michael and Willow sharing, “I think at the end of the day. that’s the only reason that the fights end up as kind of big and nasty as they are, because they do have such a deep love for each other. They just can’t seem to see eye to eye on certain things.”

In response, Katelyn MacMullen joked, “I mean, Michael and Willow can’t pick the same movie. There’s nothing we agree on. Lunch.” Rory chimed in,  “Different dinners!”

Do they hope that Willow’s crimes will be exposed before the clock turns into 2027? Rory Gibson said, “I really hope so!” However, Katelyn responded with, “I hope not! I just want Willow to keep getting away with everything. Michael did it. He does all these terrible things. That’s all I’ll say.”

LOOKING FOR A NEW LOVE OR OLD FLAME?

Meanwhile, it looks like GH is setting up Willow and Chase (Josh Swickard) to hook up and Michael and Jordan (Tanisha Harper) too. When pressed, Katelyn expressed about her Port Charles alter-egos feelings for her other ex!

“Chase and Willow obviously have a lot of history, so I mean, he’s always sort of been there for her, and seen this pure version of her.  I think when they’re together again, like anytime they’re together, she feels like herself again. And that’s the danger, because she doesn’t want to lose that and of course, Chase is really loyal,” explains MacMullen.

Elsewhere, Michael accompanied Jordan to the same burn clinic that helped him with his scars after the penthouse fire, overseas. The soap opera has been teasing the growing closeness between the two.

On the Wednesday, November 4 episode of GH, after Jordan developed a kidney infection from her burn treatments, instead of going back to Port Charles to be with his children, he decided to stay and make sure Jordan was on the end, but encouraged her for now to stop the treatments if it was making her sick.

“Tanisha’s been great,” shared Gibson. “It’s been really lovely working with her. They’re testing the waters there and we’ll see what happens.”
