In the October 29 episode of General Hospital, the hunky Australian that Britt hooked up with revealed he’s Jude Jacks. The mystery man is the son of the infamous Jerry Jacks. Jude also claimed to be Phoebe’s father. His mission quickly became crystal clear, and he has just become a huge problem for the Quartermaine family.

 Key Takeaways

  • Jude demanded to see Phoebe.
  • Jason, Tracy, and Brook Lynn learned he’s Jerry Jack’s son.
  • Jude won’t walk away from his daughter.

Britt’s Mystery Man Is a Jacks

When Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) answered the door, the last thing that she expected was a man who claimed to be Phoebe’s (Lucia Creighton and Luna Creighton) biological father. GH fans recognized him as Britt’s (Kelly Thiebaud) mystery man, but it turned out he’s a lot more than that.

Soon, Jason (Steve Burton) and Tracy (Jane Elliot) entered the chat after they heard Brook Lynn screaming at someone. That was when they learned the man standing in the foyer was Jude Jacks (Wil Traval).

Jude explained that he was the son of Jerry Jacks (Sebastian Roché), a name that quickly caught Tracy and Jason’s attention. It didn’t go unnoticed by Jude either, as he clocked their reactions. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the only bombshell that Jude dropped either.

Jerry Jacks’ Son Claims to Be Phoebe’s Father

The entire reason Jude showed up at the Qs was to see his daughter. Jude revealed that he had been looking for Delilah (Lily Cardone) for months and recently learned she died in Port Charles.

Without going into detail, Jude insisted Phoebe was his daughter. Jason escorted Jude out as the latter vowed to be back for Phoebe. After Brook Lynn rushed off to see her daughter and inform Chase (Josh Swickard) what happened, Jason warned Tracy that Jude was going to be a problem.

Jason wasn’t wrong either, because Jude showed up at Alexis’ (Nancy Lee Grahn) office looking for a lawyer. Alexis was shocked to learn he was Jerry, her ex’s son.

The Qs Have a Serious Problem in Jude Jacks

GH spoilers teased that the Quartermaine family was rocked to its core. Jude did just that, stacking his claim on Phoebe.

It was bad enough for Brook Lynn and Chase to have their adoption of Phoebe contested. However, throwing in the fact that her father might be the son of one of Port Charles most notorious villains just upped those stakes.

Tracy and Jason instantly reminded fans of a couple of Jerry’s dirty deeds. Plus, the look on Alexis’ face when she met Jude, aka Jerry’s son, was priceless and spoke volumes.

The Qs better prepare for war because if Jude’s speaking the truth, Brook Lynn and Chaase have a major fight on their hands. Losing Phoebe could be the thing that pushes Brook Lynn over the edge.

It remains to be seen if Jude is anything like his father, but his behavior so far doesn’t bode well for him. Could it be that Jude will become the new Jerry?
