General Hospital (GH) spoilers tease that the news of Jasper “Jax” Jacks’ (Ingo Rademacher) return is creating plenty of buzz. GH fans are excited about what the future holds for Jax and the people he’s connected to. Jax will undoubtedly try to lift Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) up as she deals with the loss of Oscar Nero (Garren Stitt), but what about his love life? Will Jax fall for someone once he’s back in town?
That probably depends on how long Jax sticks around, but it seems like his stint may be substantial enough to score him a love interest. In fact, many General Hospital viewers already have one picked out for him. Perhaps Ava Jerome (Maura West) could catch Jax’s eye and grow closer to him.
Ava will face some crushing blows when she learns the truth about “Dr. Kevin Collins” aka Ryan Chamberlain (Jon Lindstrom). For the first time in her life, she feels fully accepted and supported in a committed relationship. Ava’s in love, but it’ll all fall apart once she learns Kevin is actually Ryan. He’s a serial killer who murdered Ava’s own daughter, so things are going to get rough.
Ava will inevitably blame herself for Kiki Jerome’s (Hayley Erin) death. It’s not her fault Ryan is a menace to society, but she’ll be at the end of her rope anyway. Ava could use a genuinely good guy like Jax to pull her out of the darkness. He’s not high and mighty like Dr. Griffin Munro (Matt Cohen), so that’s a plus. Jax also isn’t crazy and deadly like Ryan, which also works in his favor!
As a bonus, a Jax and Ava pairing would cause all kinds of Corinthos chaos. Can you imagine Carly Corinthos’ (Laura Wright) fury over this? It would give Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) another reason to disapprove of Jax, too. Josslyn would also be upset since Ava contributed to the death of Morgan Corinthos (Bryan Craig), but the heart wants what it wants. Jax may not be able to help himself.
General Hospital spoilers say Jax’s comeback will bring major drama, so a pairing with Ava would fuel that. Several Twitter users are on board with the idea. “I wanted Ingo for Maura,” said one fan. “Let Ava and Jax ruin the (Corinthos).” Another asked, “Are we going to get an Ava/Jax pairing here? Carly would just implode.” Jax and Ava could certainly stir up some trouble with a romance.
