General Hospital Spoilers And Rumors: Kristen Alderson Returning To GH?

General Hospital (GH) spoilers and rumors tease that Kristen Alderson, who played both her “One Life To Live” character Starr Manning and the original Kiki Jerome could be returning to General Hospital, probably as a brand new character. Her new character may be connected to Roger Howarth’s new character since the two have always been very close in real life. Roger has been quoted as saying he thinks of her as his real-life daughter since they played father and daughter in One Life To Live and he’s known her since she was a baby!

General Hospital Spoilers And Rumors – Kristen Alderson’s Exit Scene From General Hospital Was Very Emotional

Longtime General Hospital viewers will recall Kristen’s exit as the original Kiki, and how emotional it was. At the time, Franco Baldwin had been involved with Nina Reeves (then Michelle Stafford) and they had just returned from Canada, where an off the rails Nina had kidnapped newborn baby Avery Corinthos-Jerome (Ava and Grace Scarola) and Franco had taken LSD to get himself committed to the same mental health sanitarium as Nina was, to protect her from his mother who was also there at the time, Heather Webber (Robin Mattson)! Kristen’s last scene with Roger was as Kiki coming to visit Franco in the sanitarium.

Franco had been led to believe Kiki was his daughter for many years by Ava Jerome (Maura West) and their relationship to the end when Hayley Erin’s Kiki was murdered by Ryan Chamberlain (Jon Lindstrom) was a father-daughter type relationship. In Roger and Kristen’s last scene together in General Hospital, Franco told Kiki she would find something that she would love to do and do it, and he gave her the fatherly advice of never marrying a man she couldn’t trust. He also told her to believe in herself, and that he wanted her to have a good life.

Alderson, as Kiki then told Roger as Franco he didn’t have to do that – she wasn’t saying goodbye forever. Franco replied that maybe she was – so just in case, told her goodbye, that she’d be a gift to him, and that he wouldn’t forget her. Later Ron Carlivati, who was still writing General Hospital at the time revealed the scene had been written that way to give a nod to Todd and Starr Manning, their characters on One Life To Live.

GH Spoilers And Rumors – Roger Howarth Will Air In May Or June

It hasn’t been totally revealed exactly when Roger’s first airdate as his new General Hospital character will be, except that it will likely be sometime in May or perhaps early June since he has been taping in April. Less certain is when Kristen might arrive, although it will likely be later. From everything that has been leaked, Roger could be a stripper, although that is not certain.

General Hospital co-writers Chris Van Etten and Dan O’Connor were quoted in Soap Opera Digest regarding May previews that Roger’s debut as his new character will be memorable – and that he would bare his face and maybe more, leading to the rumors that he might be a stripper!

Or, he could debut in a manner similar to the new Nikolas Cassadine, Marcus Coloma. General Hospital viewers will recall that he first appeared naked, taking a shower behind a glass shower door, although of course most of the “personal details” were blurred out! Nothing has been hinted about Kristen’s arrival, although she posted on Instagram in March 2020 that she had made a visit to the General Hospital studio while visiting a friend, Britt Underwood.

According to General Hospital spoilers, Kristen commented she’d caught up with Frank Valentini although she hadn’t filmed anything. But that was right before the great lockdown of 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic, so they two could have been planning something then that obviously has been delayed, as hinted by her comment about not having filmed anything! Her character may or may not be connected to Roger’s, although it certainly is possible!
