Nikolas Cassadine has mystified himself by his cryptic disappearance and weird bank account activities over seas. No one has had a clue of his whereabouts for months, including his children, Spencer (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) and Ace (Jay and Joey Clay).

General Hospital recaps recall Nikolas and Spencer Cassadine’s troubled relationship. Once upon a time Nikolas and his son Spencer were a happy little family. Over time their bond deteriorated due to selfishness and vengeance. As for Nikolas’s son Ace, he doesn’t even know him. Ace is just a baby, and Nik disappeared just as he was being born.

Nikolas Cassadine Visits Ava

Reportedly, GH News confirms that Adam Huss returns to reports his role as Nikolas Cassadine. He was last on the show back in early September of 2023. After months of speculation and fan discussion over who will play Nikolas Cassadine, Huss has stepped back into the role. Prior to Huss, Nikolas was most recently played by Marcus Coloma until his 2023 exit. Back in early Fall the news broke that Coloma’s contract would not renew. Sadly, Marcus’s three years as Nikolas was over and dans weren’t happy. Before his sudden death, Nikolas Cassadine’s original portrayer, Tyler Christopher was rumored as a possible candidate for the role post Marcus’s exit. Unfortunately, his tragic death devastated fans and loved ones.

General Hospital spoilers reveal that Nikolas is back to get revenge on Esme Prince (Avery Kristen Pohl), the mother of son, Ace. It’s no secret that she and her father, Ryan Chamberlain (Jon Lindstrom) set out to destroy Nikolas and Ava’s marriage, and succeeded. One thing lead to another and that’s why Ava was the very first person that Nikolas saw upon his return. He wanted to address a little problem called Esme. As far as he and Ava are concerned, Ryan got what he deserved. But now Nik says it’s Esme’s turn. Will Ava team up with Nikolas to take down his baby mama?

General Hospital Spoilers: Betty and Esme Are Twins! Betty Framed Ava To Avenge Ryan and Esme?!

Betty Rutherford (Ella Lentini) was hired as Avery Corinthos’s (Ava and Grace Scarola) nanny. That lasted for about 2.3 seconds before Ava told Sonny the deal and he set his trap. Betty was working for Pikeman to help take down Sonny and blackmail Ava Jerome (Maura West). But did we ever stop to think about why Betty was so willing to put herself in the position to be “eliminated” by Sonny Corinthos?

Ava Jerome isn’t winning any popularity contests in Port Charles. Although I bet she’d win when pinned up against Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros). That woman has less friends than Regina George after her Burn Book was exposed. Trina is probably Ava’s most loyal supporter in life as Trina has never kidnapped or killed any of Ava’s children. She also never framed her for a murder or stalked her at any time. Despite Trina’s loyalty, I think it’s safe to say that Ava has more enemies than friends.

General Hospital spoilers and rumors tease that Ava’s been framed! They’ve run through the obvious suspects and it looks like Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober) is already out of the runnings. Still, many GH fans believe that Nikolas Cassadine killed Austin Holt (Roger Howarth), framing Ava for the murder. But, what if it wasn’t Nikolas?

Esme’s Twin Betty Framed Ava

Last year, GH Blog shared a shocking hint to the Esme, Ryan, Heather Webber triangle. It just so happens that it’s not a triangle at all. Instead, it’s a square. According to General Hospital recaps, Heather and Ryan had a discussion in late December of 2022. In that discussion Heather revealed that there was not one but two in a cryptic remark to her once beloved.

GH spoilers and rumors tease that Betty and Esme are twins and that Betty helped take Sonny and Ava down to avenge Ryan and Esme. True, Esme isn’t dead in the physical sense. But like Taylor Swift song, for Esme it’s more like, “I’m sorry, the old Esme can’t come to the phone right now. Why? Oh, ’cause she’s dead!” Betty’s twin as she knew her is long gone and has been replaced with this white picket fence-fantasizing soccer mom. As for Ryan, well he’s as dead as a doornail and Betty isn’t happy about that either. She blames Ava for all of it. So why not frame her for murder?

It’s been almost a year since the last time that Ava Jerome (Maura West) saw her husband. She thought that she killed him and lived in fear ever since. With Austin’s help Ava was able to move and hide Nikolas Cassadine’s body. Although she and Austin were originally the only two [so she believed] who knew what she’d done, Ava eventually trusted Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) with her secret.

GH recaps highlight last February when Ava was met with the beginning of this ongoing nightmare. Nikolas eventually spiraled out of control. That’s when he barged in and threatened to disappear with Ava and Sonny’s (Maurice Benard) daughter Avery (Ava and Grace Scarola). We all know what happened next. Inevitability, Nikolas returns to Port Charles. He isn’t done with Ava just yet after she practically killed him and then slept with the late Dr. Austin Gatlin Holt (Roger Howarth). This means that Nikolas is ready for the ultimate comeback where he reclaims Wyndemere and fights Esme for Ace.

General Hospital spoilers warn that Esme could face a nasty custody battle. If she thinks that Spencer hanging over her shoulder is rough, wait until she experiences the Dark Prince. According to the latest General Hospital rumors, Nikolas returns with a vengeance. Spencer, Esme, and Ava are his driving force.

What will Esme and Spencer to do protect Ace? Just about anything… 😲

Nikolas Cassadine has his share of reasons to stay far, far away from Port Charles. First, his relationship with his son Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) was rocky ever since Nikolas faked his death. It’s understandable that Spencer felt abandoned, and distances himself from his father. Emotionally, the two were further apart than ever. Spencer was back from boarding school and living at Wyndemere, distance separated father and son.

Nikolas had other problems in his life but they all stemmed from the same issue. It was a vicious cycle back when Spencer and Esme both had it out for Nikolas and Ava. As a result, Spencer’s resentment towards his dad and step mom helped fuel Esme’s agenda. Additionally, Spencer unknowingly fed into Esme’s trap which helped lead Ava and Nikolas astray from each other. It was the straw the broke the camel’s back for Spencer.

Nikolas Killed Austin Over Ava?!

Once Esme seduced Nikolas and she became pregnant, time eventually did its job. It was only a matter of time that Spencer found out about how his father Nikolas slept with Esme. At this point Spencer had been betrayed by Nikolas enough. And on top of that, he found out who is girlfriend really was.

Ava Jerome (Maura West) was roped into the middle of it all between Nikolas and Spencer. But Ryan’s fixation on Ava fueled Esme’s entire plot, resulting in Ava’s marriage to Nikolas. According to General Hospital spoilers, Nikolas gets his revenge! The last time that he saw Ava was the night she thought she killed him. Until recently, Ava assumed that he was dead. Thanks to Austin, Ava was able to hide Nikolas’s body, or so she thought. That’s when one thing lead to another and Ava ended up sleeping with Austin. Now, Nikolas wants revenge.

GH spoilers and rumors tease that Nikolas killed Austin for revenge. He knows that Ava thought that she killed him, and the fact that she slept with Austin might be enough motive.
