General Hospital (GH) spoilers tease that Nelle Benson Jerome (Chloe Lanier) is in for a shock when she realizes Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) is her biological mother. Nelle’s been holding that half-heart pendant in court for good luck, but she’s already lucky in the mom department. Nelle’s mother is the one person in Port Charles who’s even willing to consider giving her another chance.
Although Nelle seems to care about Nina on some level, Nelle’s a manipulator at her core. Life’s made Nelle that way, so it’s going to be a tough habit to break. Nina will have her work cut out for her if she hopes to steer Nelle in a more positive direction, but you can bet she’s going to try.
There’s a good chance Nina will spot Nelle’s necklace in the courtroom and support her bio daughter on the stand. No matter the outcome of the custody case, it would mean a lot to Nelle if Nina fought for her.
General Hospital spoilers suggest Nina will sway the outcome one way or another, so she could be the reason Nelle ends up with joint or even full custody.
What happens after that? The necklace situation will have to be addressed at some point. Nina may start by grilling Nelle abou where she got hers. Nelle might mention that her father, Frank Benson, gave it to her. Maybe Nelle will explain that it’s a way to keep a piece of her mother close or something along those lines.
Nelle’s jaw is sure to drop when she sees that Nina has the very same half-heart pendant. Since Frank was such a shady character, that could lead to concerns about Nelle being stolen when she was a baby. General Hospital writers will undoubtedly reveal the whole crazy story sooner or later.
Although it’s possible Nina will go behind Nelle’s back for a DNA test, it could also be something she wants them to tackle together. Secrets never end well, so Nina may feel like she should be upfront with Nelle about her suspicions.
Perhaps Nina and Nelle will head to GH to get that DNA test as a team. It’s easy to imagine them talking about how this will affect them if they’re a mother-daughter match. Nelle and Nina could wait anxiously for updates on this shocker, which will change both their worlds forever.
Since General Hospital spoilers confirm Nelle is indeed Nina’s daughter, those DNA test results will prove it. GH may deliver an emotional embrace as Nina and Nelle try to wrap their heads around the news. Nelle and Nina have already formed a connection, so this will just strengthen it even more.
It’s keeping that connection intact that’ll be difficult, particularly when Nelle is…well, Nelle! She’s a master manipulator who makes plenty of mistakes, so Mama Nina will inevitably run into some trouble.
