General Hospital revealed that one of its younger teens, Aiden Spencer (the only biological son of Lucky Spencer, youngest son of Liz Webber, grandson of Luke and Laura, and great-grandson of Steve Hardy) has a crush on another boy. It's been teased over the last couple of years that Aiden might grow up to be LGBTQ+ (he was getting bullied for it at school) but this is our first proper confirmation. The character was born onscreen 13 years ago and the actor is 15.
I'm sure, given his young age and GH's poor track record under the current regime, there won't be much more to this than what we've already seen. Not sure if we will even get to see Tobias (the crush) onscreen; the scene consisted of Aiden telling his mother about him while they were making baked goods. On top of that, this scene was possibly written by "scab" writers while the regular writers were on strike - they also moved forward on a lesbian romance for Sonny and Alexis's daughter Kristina - so one fears that once the regular writers return, all the LGBTQ+ stories will be pushed aside, especially one bound to be as "controversial" (only to the bigots) as Aiden's.

Ryan Carnes is set to reprise his role as Dr Lucas Jones next month when Lucas's adoptive mother Bobbie Spencer passes away (the actress succumbed to cancer earlier this year). This will be Ryan's third stint as the legacy character; Lucas was last seen played by Matt Trudeau in 2021 and was said to have moved away offscreen. Marc Samuel, whose character Felix was a nursing colleague of Bobbie's, will also appear for her death storyline.
