General Hospital (GH) spoilers hint that Ava Jerome (Maura West) is in way over her head. She’s been trying to keep the “death” of Nikolas Cassadine (Adam Huss) under wraps and digging herself deeper in the process. Mason Gatlin (Nathanyeal Grey) recently asked Ava to spy on co-parent Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard), leaving her stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Meanwhile, her co-conspirator Austin Gatlin-Holt (Roger Howarth) seems to be transforming into less of a sidekick and more of an instigator. Does he know more than what he’s letting on?
General Hospital Spoilers – Is Austin Gatlin-Holt Good Or Bad?
When Austin first appeared on GH in 2021, he seemed like a decent guy. He helped Maxie Jones (Kirsten Storms) deliver Bailey Jones (London and Jett Prinzo-Berendt) and he seemed like an overall, “good” person. Seeing him with patients, other Port Charles residents, and especially his interaction (initially) with Leo Quartermaine (Easton Rocket Sweda), viewers could sense he was kind and (seemingly) didn’t have an “evil” bone in his body.
When Mason originally entered the picture, Austin seemed like he was being bullied into helping his cousin with requests. As of late, it doesn’t seem like that anymore.
GH Spoilers – Has He Given Up? Is He Too Afraid To Fight Back?
The way Austin has inserted himself into the storyline seems like he’s slowly evolving into a villain. Maybe he was always like that and he’s just revealing his authentic self now. While Austin has been around for about two years now, he hasn’t had much of a storyline. His romance with Maxie was brief, and other than his friendship with Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud), viewers haven’t had an insight into his past.
The way he’s been instructing Ava as late to turn on Sonny, almost manipulating her into doing it seems like he knows more than he’s revealing. He also came up with the idea to get the nanny fired. Plus, him trying to convince Laura Collins (Genie Francis) against her trip to Russia was far over the top. It may be because Mason’s boss has hurt Austin so many times that he’s afraid to fight back. But it also might be because he knows more than he’s letting on and he’s been involved in a lot more than Ava or the GH viewers have seen.

[…] General Hospital spoilers suggest fans are mulling over the theory that Mason Gatlin’s (Nathanyael Grey) boss may have been Victor Cassadine (Charles Shaughnessy). Since Victor’s rather timely demise, it’s possible that Mason could have branched out on his own — attempting to see to it that Ava Jerome (Maura West) was used for all that she’s worth. While some fans think Austin Gatlin Holt (Roger Howarth) is up to no good, others think he may really be carrying a torch for Ava. He does seem to have a thing for damsels in distress, which is exactly what Ava was when he first happened upon her. As she continues to need his help, is he working against her to satisfy Mason‘s demands, or is he actually trying to tame his cousin and keep Ava safe? […]
