Will Laura and Kevin Find Love on 'General Hospital'?

New love on General Hospital?
Earlier this week, Daytime Confidential teased that our beloved Laura Spencer (Genie Francis) was finally going to get some action on General Hospital. Jamey Giddens said, "I will tease you with this... he's a doctor and he's the ex-hubby of another beloved veteran character. Those are the only clues you're getting!

Today, Jon Lindstrom returned to GH as Dr. Kevin Collins, and he was also once married to Lucy Coe (Lynn Herring).

In GH's latest promo, it features Laura and Kevin sharing coffee and conversation. Is romance brewing?

Laura needs a romance that doesn't involve Luke Spencer (Anthony Geary), and Kevin seems like a great candidate. What would Scotty (Kin Shriner) and Lucy think?

What do you think of the possibility of Laura and Kevin getting together on General Hospital? Would love to hear your thoughts!

Check out a clip of Laura and Kevin below:

'General Hospital' Legend Anthony Geary To Leave Soap This Summer

Anthony Geary
Eight-time Emmy winner Anthony Geary has decided to leave ABC's General Hospital at the end of his current contract. Geary will continue shooting at the hit soap until late June and remain on air for a month or so after that, according to TV Insider.

"I don't like that word 'retirement.'" Geary said. "It sounds like some guy sitting around the pool drinking Mai Tais until his heart gives out, and that's not me. I'm an actor, a showbiz kid. This year marks 50 years for me in this business—a half-century of professional work—and I am not about to bring that to an end. I will always act. I will always be looking for another project."

General Hospital executive producer Frank Valentini said, "Tony recently made his intentions clear that he would vacate his role of Luke Spencer this year, and it was a decision he did not come to lightly. After 37 years on the air, Tony felt this was the right time to bid adieu to Luke Spencer, Port Charles and General Hospital. Anthony is our friend and a part of our television family, but, as difficult as this may be, we understand and respect that this is his choice. Rest assured, Tony has promised to be with us throughout the summer as we have some exciting things in store for Luke. The door will always remain open, so don’t think this is the last you’ll see of Anthony Geary or Luke Spencer."

General Hospital Executive Producer Frank Valentini and Daytime Emmy winners Anthony Geary, Maura West, Chad Duell and Donna Mills appeared on Monday's episode of ABC's The View, airing live from the Los Angeles set of GH.

For his role as Luke Spencer, Anthony Geary was honored with his eighth Daytime Emmy in the Outstanding Lead Actor category, making him the most honored actor in Daytime Emmy history, breaking his own record.

Emmy-winner Maura West took home her third Emmy marking her first for the role of General Hospital's Ava Jerome.

Chad Duell took home his first Emmy for the role of Michael Corinthos in the Outstanding Supporting Actor category.

Television veteran Donna Mills was honored with her first Emmy as Outstanding Special Guest Performer category for her portrayal of Madeline Reeves.

After a stir on social media about the General Hospital stars not appearing on CBS' The Talk, the GH segment on The View actually (and surprisingly) turned out to be longer and more interesting than any of the Emmy segments on the rival network's talk show on Monday. In fact, The Talk didn't include anyone from The Bold and the Beautiful, the CBS soap opera which won more Daytime Emmys than any other series this year.

Watch the General Hospital Emmy winners from Monday's episode of The View below:

General Hospital is celebrating its 52nd anniversary on Wednesday, April 1, with an episode that pays tribute to the original medical team that launched the show in 1963.

According to TVInsider, Jason Thompson (Dr. Patrick Drake), Rebecca Herbst (Nurse Elizabeth Webber), and Ryan Carnes (Dr. Lucas Jones) will appear in flashbacks as the iconic Dr. Steve Hardy (originally played by John Beradino), Nurse Jessie Brewer (Emily McLaughlin) and Dr. Phil Brewer (Roy Thinnes).

"It's really captivating," Carnes says of GH's very first episode. "The aesthetic, the music, the mystery—everything draws you in. It's easy to see why the viewers would get into it and want to come back tomorrow."

The episode will finally reveal why Luke Spencer (Anthony Geary) developed a split personality and tried to kill off half of Port Charles. TVInsider called the revelation a "double shocker."
