General Hospital Seeing the rumor mill stirring, I have some possible spoons about the fate of Lucky Spencer on ABC soap that relate to the fate of Jonathan Jackson, and it might also be associated with Rebecca Herbst, who plays Elizabeth Webber. We will talk about the possibility of Lucky and Elizabeth’s possible exit.
General Hospital Rumor: Jonathan Jackson May Export as Lucky Spencer
OK So, this rumor comes from a source that I don’t have a lot of information. I won’t give them a lot of sunshine and oxygen because I don’t recognize them. They’ve been doing it for a few years GH podcast. I don’t know about their record of reliability on the spoon. I just want to say it before.
But at the same time, this kind of chat about Jonathan Jackson seems reasonable, and it fits much of the known information about his new era and tenure. General Hospital. We’ll introduce the rumor and then I’m going to tell you why I think this might have legs.
To be clear, I don’t want to upset anyone, not my fans, but I am a journalist and my job is to report news, which includes rumors. We are one of the people talking about Kelly Monaco’s export rumor, and it turns out to be true. So, I’m doing my job. Don’t shoot the messenger.
Three-part Rumor: Jackson’s Departure, Valentini’s Plea and Herbst’s Destiny
Let’s get into it. The first thing to know is that there are three parts of this rumor tied to it. So, part one, it overflows GH Podcast Jonathan Jackson It’s said he’s leaving General Hospital It’s around August or September this year. If you don’t remember, he’s back with the lucky Spencer, August 23, 2024.
I can say, I can’t believe that Jonathan Jackson has been back for almost a year. It feels like he has only been back for a few months. So it’s reasonable to have a part of the rumor that Jonathan Jackson might leave in 3 to 4 months, but it’s clear that it’s not confirmed yet, but the timing is in line. Year by year, this makes sense.
General Hospital: Rumor Part Two – Johnnathon Goes Out?
So the second part of the rumor in these three parts is the persuasive attempt by performer Frank Valentini to keep Jonathan Jackson lucky until February. Now, for the timing of the second part, if Jonathan Jackson signs a one-year contract, it would be the same as Jonathan Jackson’s six-month extension. In the soap world, six-month extensions are common. Therefore, equally, reasonable, impossible, not guaranteed, reasonable.
This is the third part of the rumor. The allegation is Jonathan Jackson’s decision to stay or go may have something to do with Becky Herbst’s fate General Hospital and her long-term role as Elizabeth Webber. Now, I’m going to say that the third part of Jonathan Jackson’s rumor is particularly worrying, and unfortunately, it’s not necessarily surprising given how ABC soap has been doing Becky in the past, not in a good way.
Rebecca’s History at General Hospital: Contract Negotiations and Fans’ Anger
You know, she’s been General Hospital Being Elizabeth Webber for nearly 30 years. She has a large and loyal fan base as a long-term legacy role. But there were a few times in the past decade that the power you know had hanged her, if you could believe the conversation, not treated her well during the contract negotiations, and even fired her.
If you don’t remember, Rebecca’s power, who was fired in early 2011, was fired. If you don’t know. Liz’s actress said when she called her to the meeting: “How she was blinded when we were writing your words.” This caused a stir and anger among fans.
Guess what it is? Four weeks later, the performers at the time were no longer there and Becky was rehired. Then five years later, it’s like a bad flashback to the same plot, Daytime secret, In March 2016, GH leaked Becky’s ringtone through contract negotiations and was considering getting her to leave again. Again, fans’ anger provoked the report. Frank Valentini reportedly backed off as Becky encountered a new multi-year contract.
Potential exit strategy: Lucky and Elizabeth’s future on GH
So these two history make the third part of Jonathan Jackson very problematic to me. If Frank attempts to extend Jonathan Jackson into February, it might be a parade exit for Liz, because we know the Becky Herbst renews in March. Just like the range from January to March, it is at the beginning of the year. So something might happen, like Lucky and Elizabeth and they go on a risk, she retires as a nurse, and Aiden Spencer (Colin Cassidy) goes to college.
I mean, this will work. I don’t like the idea of it. There is still some debate about whether Jonathan Jackson actually signed a one-year contract. When they brought him back to Lucky, he said it was a long-term show with no publicly confirmed schedule. So, Jonathan Jackson might think that a year is a long-term soap show, and the multiple months arc is lucky, I think it is a short-term or guest arc. Therefore, the language is very open.
Some people on soap social media insisted that Jonathan signed a three-year contract. They really don’t have any credibility I’ve seen, and no sources I think are credible have confirmed a long-term contract. So we just don’t know how long he was in the first place. sometimes GH Will said they signed a long-term agreement. I think when Steve Burton came back as Jason Morgan, they did, but with the return of Liz, it wasn’t specific. Jonathan Jackson never said any way. Be clear that this is a rumor, not a spoiler.
Leeds’s Hesitation: Exploring the Future of Lucky and Elizabeth’s Relationship
So, this is the hottest proposal to Liz after luck. She said no. We have always insisted on why. As of the time I recorded this video, she hadn’t explained herself to Lucky. We don’t know whether Liz’s answer is no or not now.
To me it seemed quick, kind of like being lucky enough to propose to Leeds, especially since he had been lying on her shelf and covering up Kristina Corinthos-Davis (Kate Mansi). I personally feel miserable about whether I want long-term Leeds and lucky reunion. I liked her more than Nicholas Cassadin or Jason Morgan (Steve Burton). You know, she and Lucky used to struggle.
I didn’t always like the way he treated her or the way he was lucky enough to speak to Leeds. If you don’t remember, Lucky and Liz were married twice before. Two times ended with divorce. So that might be why she is reluctant to say “yes” to the proposal. Again, this Jonathan Jackson/Rebecca Herbst is just a rumor.
The timing makes it reasonable, but the person who starts fake rumors, if they do the research, you know, they can spread something around what seems reasonable. So at this point, I would say that there is nothing to solve, but it’s something to watch out for. That’s what I’m going to say.
Becky’s backstage politics and screen time attention
I am not here if Jonathan Jackson lives for one to three years. For me, he can stay or go. I don’t like any of his storylines. Lucky’s romance with Liz is mostly on-screen and isn’t particularly passionate to me, and his defense of Christina was really weird to me because it meant he spitted Liz’s face for a long time. I have a stronger view of Rebecca’s future GH.
I’m going to say that I think I’ve done her soap wrong in the past few times, not just her contract. exist GH Fan Weekend 2023 Graceland, Both Kelly Monaco and Rebecca Herpst have raised questions from fans about why they don’t have more plots, more screen time, more storylines, especially considering how long they’ve been on soap.
It was October 2023, because they couldn’t control it, neither of them could really answer. Until a year later, in October 2024, Kelly Monaco was written, because they had no good reason to kill Sam McCall and both of them continued to be burned. So many rumors about backstage politics whirled around her exit. So I just hope the same regime won’t fight Rebecca again. That’s why this rumor really bothers me. We’ll see how things are going. And if I hear anything about her or Jonathan Jackson’s contract status, I’ll tell you.
