Spencer Makes A Comeback?
After Spencer’s presumed death, Trina’s love life has been on a downward spiral. However, it looks like things might start to look up soon. Austin Astrup has joined as Kai and it looks like he will bring in some romance for Trina, with him. As per the spoilers, one of the biggest reasons why he was cast is because GH wanted to introduce a new romance for Trina. However, it might all not be as easy.
Recently, many General Hospital fans have taken onto social media to discuss one big theory. A theory going on on reddit suggests that that Kai and Trina’s romance may be short-lived, and her presumably dead boyfriend, Spencer might make a comeback to life.
The speculations hint that Trina and Kai will fall in love with each other but as their relationship starts to become serious, Trina’s ex-boyfriend, Spencer will make a return. It will be revealed that he is not dead so, the new couple will have a past lover to deal with.
We all know, Trina has loved Spencer with everything she has, so, when Spencer shows up, she is going to want to be with him, and that can cause a lot issues between the new romance. Well, this is not something new in the soap world, and we have seen this before.
However, we think that there will be a slight change in all of this. Nicholas Alexander Chavez has played the role of Spencer for a long time. However, now he is making waves with his work in Hollywood. So, it makes sense that he might be able to come back to soap opera. So, if you ask us, it looks like the character of Spencer will be recast and bring a lot of trouble in Trina’s life.
