Bombshell News! General Hospital Spoilers- Laura reveals big secret at funeral, Monica’s other 2 children appear
General Hospital spoilers reveal that the tribute ceremony for Monica Cordain and the memorial for the late actress Leslie Charleston at General Hospital is becoming the focal point of one of the most shocking and insane events in the 62-year history of the soap opera.
What was initially planned as a formal ceremony to inaugurate Diar Monica Cordain’s heart wing has turned into a storyline earthquake as many surprising and dark details were revealed during the preparations.
Jeannie Francis, who plays Laura Collins and takes a leading role in the memorial ceremony as the mayor of Port Charles, accidentally revealed in a recent interview with Soap Opera Digest some incredible script changes she only learned about a few days before filming.
According to Francis, the production team discovered a secret medical file that Monica had kept for decades in a personal safe in her office at the hospital, only to be opened after her death.
“When I received the revised script pages, I had to sit down immediately. My hands were shaking as I read,” Francis shared.
“What Monica did, what she knew, will completely change the dynamics of Port Charles. This is no longer just a memorial service. This is a turning point that could reshape the entire show for years to come.”
According to Francis’ revelations, these files were not just regular medical documents but contained evidence of a series of secret medical experiments Monica had conducted from the 1980s to recent years.
These experiments, involving genetics and stem cells, were performed on many patients without their consent—including several main characters of the show.
Even more shocking, the files contained proof of a mysterious biological connection between several top families in Port Charles: the Corttmains, Spencers, Cassadines, and Corinthos.
“There are pages in the files showing that some people thought to be dead might still be alive,” Francis revealed with a serious expression.
“And there’s even evidence of a secret child of Monica’s that no one knew about—a child born from one of her experiments and now living in Port Charles under a completely different identity.”
This rushed script adjustment caused the writers and producers to work day and night to integrate these shocking revelations into the main storyline.
Frank Valentini, the executive producer of GH, is said to have held several emergency meetings to ensure these secrets would be revealed in a way that respected Leslie Charleston’s legacy while also opening up exciting new story possibilities.
The madness of the situation escalated when Francis revealed that the producers decided to include in the storyline a secret video recording of Monica’s final confession, filmed secretly with Leslie Charleston before her death.
This was a surreal and unprecedented moment in soap opera history when the line between reality and fiction blurred.
“Leslie knew her health was declining, and she worked with the producers to film a final scene—a message from Monica to Port Charles,” Francis explained emotionally.
“It was a deeply moving and powerful moment as we stood in the hospital’s meeting room watching Monica—Leslie—appear on screen and reveal the secrets she’d kept for decades.”
Francis also revealed that every actor in the memorial service had no prior knowledge of the specific content of the video, so their reactions—whether shock, tears, or disbelief—were completely genuine.
Valentini decided to keep the video’s contents a secret to ensure the authenticity of the reactions—a bold move that resulted in one of the most emotional episodes in GH history.
“Jane Elliot’s reaction as Tracy Cordain when she hears Monica’s revelations about Allan? I don’t think she was acting,” Francis said.
“And when Rebecca Herbst, as Elizabeth Weber, hears about her connection to Monica’s experiments, she could barely stand. These are moments you can’t act. It’s real. It’s true emotion. It’s real shock.”
