“General Hospital” (GH) spoilers hint that this is the week that Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) and Valerie Spencer (Brytni Sarpi) take their rebound relationship public – but the public will not like what they see.
Valerie naively sees hooking up with Dante as an issue only for Lulu Spencer (Emme Rylan). But Val is about to find out that stealing a guy so brazenly will not go down without some controversy all across Port Charles.
First to explode over the new romance is Olivia Falconeri (Lisa LoCicero) who goes into full mama bear mode. Olivia thinks that Dante is throwing away a great marriage for a roll in the hay – and worst of all, it’s with Lulu’s cousin.
GH spoilers hint that Dante is done being criticized and will start hitting back when confronted about his carrying on with Valerie. Dante has shifted his perspective from him taking all the heat for the first one-night stand with Val.
Really, if Lulu had not lied to him about going with her parents – and Dillon Quartermaine (Robert Palmer Watkins) – to chase down Lucky Spencer (Jonathan Jackson), none of this would have happened. In that sense, Dante is right to blame Lulu.
Lulu chose NOT to trust her husband and instead trust the guy she lost her virginity to, who had just blown back into town after being gone for years. As far as Dante saw, Lulu abandoned their marriage and took off with Dillon.
Dante was crushed and Valerie was there to comfort him. And Val was just returning the favor since Dante has been comforting her after the death of her mom – while Lulu was being pretty crappy to her. Does Lulu even have a right to be indignant?
Whether she does or not, Lulu is one of Port Charles’ favorite daughters of a legacy family, so likely people in droves will confront Valerie about cozying up to Dante. Valerie is about to be as popular as Liz Webber (Rebecca Herbst).
Maybe Val and Liz can form a homewrecker support group – although, to be fair, most of the women in Port Charles have been the “other woman” at one time or another. Bottom line is, Valerie is about to find out she’s under attack.
All this hits just as Valerie is pushing Dante to let her know if this is just a rebound thing for him – or if they have a shot at a real relationship. What will Dante say – and will the pressure from Olivia, among others, turn him off Valerie?
Just as Dante might consider slowing things down with Valerie, Lulu will start palling around with Johnny Zacchara (Brandon Barash) and scheming to get revenge against Val. Lulu hanging with Johnny will infuriate Dante.
And isn’t driving Dante mad with jealousy exactly what led him into Valerie’s arms to start with? Is Lulu going to drive Dante further away with her antics instead of bringing him back to her side? Are Dante and Lulu done for good?
What do you think GH fans? Does Lulu need to crawl back and apologize to Dante instead of trying to push his buttons? Will her plan with Johnny backfire? Will Valerie end up with Dante, despite the public outcry against their romance?
