General Hospital Alum Ryan Paevey, who played Nathan West, has mentioned an upcoming project that has fans asking if Nathan is back from the dead. Will Maxie Jones (Kirsten Storms) finally be reunited with the love of her life?
Maxie Jones Was Devastated When Nathan West Died
Maxie was completely devastated with Nathan was killed before their child could even be born. Of course Liesl Obrecht (Kathleen Gati) was just as upset. Liesl asked her sister to raise Nathan to keep him away from his father.
However, the truth came out and Cesar Faison (Anders Hove) ended up shooting Nather because of a set up.
Maxie has never found anyone to take Nathan’s place even though she did finally reunite with Damien Spinelli (Bradford Anderson). Now that Liesl’s daughter, Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) has returned from the dead, could Nathan be right behind her? Could Nathan have actually been saved way back when?
Tough Choices
When Paevey left General Hospital, he revealed that he never wanted to stay in soaps over five years. In 2024, Paevey announced that he was leaving soaps altogether stating the following to Heavy.com.
“Hey everyone…so first and foremost, I am a bit apprehensive that I even have to make a statement like this. I am certainly accustomed to a certain degree of gossip, but the past few weeks in particular have gotten out of control with speculation from third parties that have taken my words and expanded upon them to meet their narrative, or flat out misrepresented my words or misconstrued their meaning.
I have always been an open book, and one who speaks his mind truthfully and directly, and it is unfortunate that we live in a world where social media makes it very easy to twist one’s words; I am often unaware it is even happening until someone from my team messages me in a panic, and so I feel it best to make a formal statement through HEAVY.
As I’ve stated before, I am taking a step back from acting, something I’ve felt I’ve needed to do for a while now, and a decision proven to be absolutely necessary in the past few weeks.
The industry hasn’t felt like the place for me in quite some time now, and my mental health has suffered from it. It’s taken me to a bit of a dark place, made me into a version of myself I don’t like very much.
I’ve vented some of my anger and frustration publicly, and for that I apologize. I’ve had many years of smooth sailing, and am very lucky to be able to say that, but the waters have been much rougher the last year or so.
I know I am not unique in this; it seems nearly EVERYONE, in Hollywood or not, is going through troubled times to some degree. I’ve had bank accounts hacked, money embezzled, investments stolen….things that, while difficult, can be recovered from.
But after all that, my mother was diagnosed with lung cancer. I left Los Angeles to be closer to her, and feel the need to devote more of my time, energy, and resources closer to home…..
All this to say, I am simply shifting focus closer; to family. I have found another fulfilling creative endeavor in Fortunate Wanderer, and have plans to expand it, begin adventuring more, and share those adventures in the hopes that we will all remain connected, and I will share more about that once I myself have a clearer picture of how to do it.
I know this was a lot, but I wanted you all to hear it directly from me. Thank you, so much, for sharing this journey with me, and here’s hoping there’s more ahead for us all.”
Is Ryan Paevey Returning To Acting?
