General Hospital star Nancy Lee Grahn has taken us back with her recent social media post on former co-star Antonio Sabato Jr. Nancy Lee Grahn who portrays Alexis Davis on the soap has mocked the actor for their conflict of opinion. But the post has left her fans divided and some are calling for peace. To know the whole story, keep reading till the end.
Nancy’s Post Mocks Antonio
Actress Nancy Lee Grahn ridiculed Antonio Sabato Jr. who once portrayed John “Jagger” Cates on GH. Nancy’s comments came in response to Antonio’s recent social media post reflecting his political alignment and support for Donald Trump.
Antonio posted the picture in support of republican candidate Donald Trump running for U.S. presidential election. He is a hardcore republican and had even run for a congress election in 2018 as their candidate.
The picture Antonio posted on social media had a television screen featuring the scene from the political debate. The screen showed Donald Trump on one part of it, while the other part, which probably had Kamala Harris, was covered with a blanket. Antonio while captioning the post wrote, “perfect” with the flag of America attached to it.
Nancy’s Taunting Social Media Post
The post did not go well with Nancy, she took to her social media handle and posted a screenshot of Antonio’s post with a taunting caption. In the caption, Nancy mentioned that she is certain about the fact that she was given co-star Antonio’s dressing room at the set of General Hospital in 1996. Since then, the room has been purified and cleansed to get rid of the negative energy it had from the actor. She further wrote, “Now she feels the boogies have gone.”
Fans Join Nancy For the Jibe
While Nancy’s post explicitly highlighted the political differences between the co-stars, her detest with Antonio’s opinion received mixed responses from fans. Though many users outrightly agreed with Nancy and went on to mock the actor for his post, some came in his support too.
Some users commented, “he has all the rights to have his opinion.” “If you(Nancy) can support Kamala Harris, then how is it wrong for him to support Donald Trump”.
But few users did not stop at political conflict and mocked Antonio as a failure in his acting career. Few users commented, “that’s why they (GH makers) did not get you (Antonio) back to play John”. A fan said, “I like Adam Harrington as John more”.
The character of John “Jagger” Cates was initially played by Antonio Sabato Jr. Antonio joined the soap in 1992 and left GH in 1995. Since then, he was never asked to join back for the role. Recently John “Jagger” Cates (portrayed by Adam Harrington) was killed off on the show and it is for which Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) is a suspect.

I just love how it’s ok to post their opinions but God forbid someone who thinks differently post theirs. The side that preaches tolerance the most never actually tolerates those that disagree with them.
For the life of me why GH allows her to constantly attack people is beyond me. Yes we all have the right to our own opinion but we can express it without being disgraceful to other people. She may be a great actress but she is a horrible person.
I can’t stand to watch her scenes because all I see is her ugly mean spirited comments about a Trump supporters and republicans up in general. I wish she would be replaced.
So true!
I am so tired of her rants against anyone who doesn’t think like she does. She is the face of intolerance and GH is foolish to let her get away with it. She tries to destroy the people that don’t agree with her as some former GH actors will attest to.
She is one hateful woman. I try not to watch when she is part of the main story line. She is just vile.
