Adam Huss completed his latest run as General Hospital’s Nikolas Cassadine. The character was clobbered over the head by Maura West’s Ava Jerome Cassadine and left for dead. But is he…really?

Brook Kerr’s TV family has expanded. Last week, Gavin Houston and Rico Ross debuted on the soap opera as Portia Robinson’s brother, Zeke Robinson, and father, Dr. Sterling Robinson, respectively. The two actors will reappear this week, as Portia’s wedding to Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner) gets underway.
Houston is no stranger to GH. He previously played Sly Thomas back in 2010. The actor also portrayed Jeffrey Hunter on The Haves and the Have Nots from 2013 to 2021, and appeared on Roswell, New Mexico as Theodore.
Ross’s credits include S.W.A.T. and P-Valley. In 2000, he played Reggie Morris on Days of our Lives.
After 13 years away from The Young and the Restless, Vail Bloom has reprised her role as Heather Stevens, Paul Williams’s (Doug Davidson) daughter and Daniel Romalotti’s (Michael Graziadei) significant other.
