The state of Chase and Brook Lynn’s marriage is in shambles on General Hospital. Instead of talking to each other, they are talking to other people. Most recently, that was two people who have no business giving them marriage advice: Valentin and Willow.
Key Takeaways

- Things Just Got Harder for Brook Lynn and Chase
Valentin and Willow Give Their Two Cents
On Tuesday’s episode of GH, Chase (Josh Swickard) and Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) spent some quality time drinking wine at the gatehouse. Chase had just come from a tense meeting with his lawyer, Monet (Blythe Howard), while Willow, urged by her cousin Britt (Kelly Thiebaud), was set to fight for the one that got away.
Willow played the good friend and pushed Chase to make things work with Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton). When his intentions became clear, Willow changed her tune and helped him protect himself from his wife and the. Quartermaine family.
Meanwhile, at the main house, Brook Lynn found herself confiding in Valentin (James Patrick Stuart). The latter reminded Brook Lynn that she hides her true self from Chase, as he recalled her manipulating him. Valentin also insisted Chase was not blameless in their marital problems.
Not The Voice of Reason
There’s no question that Willow has an agenda when it comes to Chase, which means any advice she gives won’t help him and Brook Lynn reconcile. Willow has become a master manipulator who has finally admitted that what she really wants is her ex-husband back.
Valentin was just simply brutally honest, with perhaps a motive of using her to get back into ELQ, but that doesn’t mean he was wrong. Brook Lynn has become a shell of herself with Chase. Valentin made that click with her, like no one else has been able to do, especially Tracy (Jane Elliot).
The talks with Willow and Valentin seem to have pushed Chase and Brook Lynn farther apart, even though they haven’t talked to each other. Instead, they listened to two people who are far from experts on what it means to have a good marriage.
Willow has been married four times. Three of those times were marriages of convenience or ways to get what she wanted. Only one was about love, her second marriage to Michael (Rory Gibson).
Valentin was married to Nina (Cynthia Watros), but their marriage fell apart when she learned he had paid Sasha (Sofia Mattsson) to be her long-lost daughter. Aside from that, Valentin’s deep love for Anna (Finola Hughes) has impacted the rest of his relationships.
