General Hospital (GH) spoilers tease that Lucas Jones (Ryan Carnes) has found himself absolutely devastated and things will get worse in the days to come. As you probably know by now, the baby swap storyline has blown wide open.
It was an explosive week on the ABC soap, as Lucas had to face a terrible reality – that the boy he’s been raising for over a year now belongs to someone else. It will continue to be harrowing for him, and he’ll surely kick Brad to the curb now that Lucas realizes the horrible scam that he helped pull off. It’s hard to imagine Lucas ever wanting to be in the same room as Brad again, and we can imagine a pretty quick divorce happening.
That means that once some time goes by, Lucas will need a new love interest. And that got us thinking, since there’s another character on the show who will need a love interest himself – Brando Corbin (Johnny Wactor). In fact, since Brando burst on the scene to save Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) in the warehouse shooting, it seems that fans have been wondering who he’d be paired up with.
There’s been talk that he could be paired with Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton), although these two recently shared a scene together and the characters didn’t act interested in each other at all. There’s also the possibility of Maxie Jones (Kirsten Storms) being paired with Brando one her relationship with Peter August (Wes Ramsey) inevitably blows up.
But a Brando/Lucas pairing would work, too, and the timing seems about right. Plus, we couldn’t help but notice that Brando seemed to have a big reaction when he found out that Gladys Corbin (Bonnie Burroughs) was spreading the word around social media that Dev Cerci (Ashton Arbab) was his son. In fact, he mentioned on more than one occasion that he was absolutely positive that he had no children.
Of course, one thing that could make Brando 100% positive that he has no children is if he hasn’t been with women. It’s just a theory at this point, but perhaps Brando will be there to help Lucas pick up the pieces of his life after losing both Brad and Wiley. It would certainly make for a great story, and it would probably drive Brad into a complete meltdown if Lucas quickly starts turning to another man for comfort.
A Brando/Lucas pairing would also cause a considerable amount of friction between Lucas and Julian Jerome (William deVry), since Brando is related to Sonny Coritnhos (Maurice Benard). One can only imagine Julian’s reaction if he were to find out that Lucas was seeing someone connected to the Corinthos clan.
What do you think – Would Brando and Lucas make a good couple? Stay tuned to General Hospital and check in with CDL on the regular for the latest GH recaps, spoilers, and news.
