General Hospital spoilers: Is Nicholas Alexander Chavez Returning?
Giovanni Mazza is scorching up the screen as newbie Gio Palmieri and Chavez appeared in a social media story with the professional violinist.
This was enough to fuel the rumor mill, and why not, soap death isn’t the same as reality death.
Gio looks to be paired with Spencer’s true love, Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali) whose eyes practically fell out of her head the first time she laid eyes on the handsome hunk.

In a highly publicized move, Chavez left GH to film the upcoming Ryan Murphy series Monster. Chavez plays one of two brothers, Lyle Menendez, who are now imprisoned for murdering their millionaire Beverly Hills parents.

General Hospital spoilers: Will Nicholas Alexander Chavez Come Back to Port Charles?
Nicholas Alexander Chavez was a fan favorite there’s no doubt about that. But a couple of things indicated that he was truly gone. First, his name was taken off the GH credits, and second, he unfollowed all of his co-stars on social media.
That doesn’t mean the actor wouldn’t have a change of heart. Plenty of soap studs have left the genre for brighter lights, but a significant number return in the end.

Yes please bring Spencer back .
Of course we’d love to see Nicholas back! But contrary to what the writer insinuated, Trina was not immediately smitten by Gio’s good lucks when she first saw him. It was because he so much resembled Spencer! Doesn’t anyone else see it?
Yes please. Bring Spencer back. Trina needs him as well as his baby brother Ace. Nicolas Chavez played a great Spencer and is very much missed. Would love for him to come back and pick up where he left things off especially with Trina.
Yes bring Spencer back and Trina was stunned becàuse Gio reminded her of Spencer. Writers please stop the kin folk drama. Every new person that came to Port Charles is related. Southern folk got a name for that.
YES!!!! BRING SPENCER BACK!!!!
I'm still praying that Spencer comes back to be with Trina! I truly loved watching them grow in love with each other. They made a beautiful couple. And no matter what came their way they figured things out together.
Absolutely! Bring Spencer Casadine back!!!! Trina needs to be happy with him again. They had a promising life together. 🩵
