General Hospital (GH) spoilers reveal that one ABC soap star is dealing with a difficult loss. GH fans know Chris Van Etten as Chet Driscoll in Port Charles. He doesn’t pop up as often as many viewers would like, but his appearances are always a treat. Sadly, Van Etten recently faced a tough blow and announced it on Instagram. His mother passed away, so he wanted to do a sweet post in memory of her.
“My entire life you have shown me what strength and unconditional love is,” Van Etten said. “In my weakest moments, you were there to pick me up. In my strongest, you were always there to cheer me on. Everything I am is because of how you raised me. I can’t really imagine what my life is going to be like without you, but know that I will always have you in my heart. Rest in peace momma, I love you.”
Van Etten shared a pic, which featured him as a young boy on his mom’s lap. A second photo showed Van Etten during his time in the Marines. It’s easy to see how proud Van Etten’s mom was of him. Based on his deep parting words for her, they certainly must’ve had a special bond. It’s always hard to lose a loved one, especially a parent who’s given so much support.
Van Etten received lots of heartfelt messages from General Hospital viewers and other fans who wanted to send their love. Some shared their own personal stories of grief and assured Van Etten that the loss would be easier to face in time. Others sent their condolences, thoughts, prayers and anything else they could think of to offer comfort during this terrible time. Let’s hope Van Etten knows he’s got plenty of people in his corner!
