General Hospital Spoilers: Jack Pulls Back From Carly Just as They’re Getting Their Feet Wet

General Hospital spoilers reveal WSB Chief Jack Brennan (Chris Mckenna) and Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) hit a snag in their simmering connection.

Just when it seemed like these two were ready to dive into something deeper, Jack is ready to start pulling back — and it’s got everyone wondering what’s really going on behind those piercing eyes and that enigmatic smile.

Could it be that the price Carly almost paid for being his new love interest is just too high for him to make peace with?

Being poisoned the morning after they kicked their love affair into high gear is bound to have a strong effect on both of them, but Jack may not be willing to gamble with Carly’s life the way she is.

General Hospital Spoilers — Polonium Pause

Carly has been riding high lately, feeling that spark with Jack after months of leaning on Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) and navigating the chaos of her ever-complicated life. Jack seemed like the perfect guy to sweep her off her feet — or at least keep her on her toes.

Their flirty banter and stolen glances have had fans rooting for a new power couple in Port Charles, but this week’s spoilers reveal that Jack’s got cold feet just as Carly is ready to take the plunge. Is it fear, secrets, or just polonium pulling him away?

Word on the street is that Jack’s sudden retreat might tie back to his murky past. We all know this guy’s got layers — federal agent ties, shady deals, and a knack for showing up just when trouble’s brewing.

Could it be that Jack will start keeping Carly at arm’s length to protect her from whatever skeletons are rattling in his closet? Or is he playing a longer game, one that might leave Carly’s heart bruised and her trust shattered?

General Hospital Spoilers — Time Out

Carly, of course, isn’t one to sit back and let a man dictate the terms. Get ready for her to confront Jack head-on, demanding answers in true Spencer fashion.

Carly wants to see where this thing — whatever it is — can go with Jack, despite repeated warnings from the likes of Jason and Anna Devane (Finola Hughes).

Carly knew right away when Anna left Jason to speak with Carly in the hospital that the words written all over his face spelled out, “I told you so.” She doesn’t want to hear it because she’s not intending on changing her plans, but what if Jack doesn’t give her a choice? Stay tuned for more GH news and spoilers just ahead to see how this plays out.
