Kristina cut the brake line on what she thought was Ava’s car on General Hospital without thinking about the ramifications. It turned out that was Ric’s car and as he drove Elizabeth home, the brakes failed. And, you guessed it, he and Liz landed in the hospital. Ric was pretty beat up as a result, so Rick Hearst shared some pics from the makeup process that he went through that made him almost look like a horror movie victim.
He Had a Tough Day
Hearst shared several pics on Instagram that showed the makeup and special effects departments applying the fake blood and wounds to him. He captioned it: “Tough day at the office! Not only does the amazing #gh makeup crew make me pretty, they can F me up even better! 🤌🏼❤️🫶🏼 scared the absolute shyte out of my Mom 🧑.”
He called out the team, writing, “Kudos to the gash squad!” then adding, “Beautification crew.” All of the artists involved were named, and their work spoke for itself. The first pic was him in the makeup chair with bruises applied all over his arms and torso and a large gash on his forehead.

Fans Are Glad He’s Back
The second pic was of an unconscious Ric still in his car with a neck brace on as blood oozed out of his forehead laceration. The third was a selfie of Hearst looking unsurprised with the cut on his head, although not as bloody as the previous pic. The next was Ric on a stretcher headed into the ambulance, and the last was him standing with his head wound showing as he peered into the back of the ambulance as if he were Ric’s ghost.

Makeup artist Priscilla Castro-Preciado responded, “🥹 Love you! You sat like a champ! Hope you’re back in my chair soon!” Many fans were glad he returned to GH, with several praising his acting. And another makeup artist, Alie Fleck Whittle, wrote, “Love working with you always! You’re a rockstar 🕺🪩🤩.”
