Finn Carr plays the role of Rocco Falconeri on the ABC soap opera General Hospital, and his character is very popular with fans. It seems hard to believe, but this week, he turned 17 years old. On social media, his mom, Nikki Carr, shared the cutest throwback photo of her son. Read on to see it.
The Birthday Wishes
Nikki Carr took to Instagram on Friday to wish her son a wonderful birthday. She also wrote some very sweet things about Finn. Plus, she posted a photo of him on a rock-climbing wall. He has certainly left his baby years behind him.
In her caption, she wrote: “Happy 17th Birthday to my sweet Finn! You make this world a better place and you make me a better person! I love you with everything I’ve got! Thank you for the honor of being your mama!”
GH Fans & Friends React
Aww, that message seemed so nice. Of course, the real-life Rocco Falconeri got a lot of messages from ABC fans and other followers. One of them wrote, “How can he possibly be 17? I still remember you tap dancing with him in your belly and then strapped to your belly… Seems like just yesterday. You must be so proud! Happy birthday, Finn.”
Here are some other responses from the comments section:
- Happy birthday to Finn! Beautiful family. Great actor.

Acting & Exercise
Finn Carr has done well on General Hospital, and his storylines are not always simple ones. Did you know that he goes to a normal school but still manages to get good grades despite the hard work that the soap demands from him?
He once opened up to Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos) on his State of Mind podcast. Back in January, he admitted that he struggled with depression at one time. It took him time to talk to his mom about it, but he eventually faced his problem. These days, he loves to exercise to help him cope. Maybe that’s why his mom showed him on the climbing wall.
This year on the daytime soap, fans saw him acting in a lot of scenes. Rocco went through a major revelation when he realized that it was Dr. Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) who not only carried but also delivered him.
