General Hospital (GH) star Jonathan Bennett plays a rather serious role as Detective Joe Fitzpatrick on the ABC soap, but in real life, he seems to have a wonderful sense of humour, though his husband, Jaymes Vaughan, might not be laughing. Read on to find out why.
A Bathroom Prank
General Hospital fans who follow Jonathan Bennett on Instagram saw that he shared a reel on Wednesday that really got Vaughan worked up.
In it, he put a text overlay that said, “I texted my husband that a guy was trying to fight me in the bathroom.” And to prove it, he also showed a small screenshot of the text.
Then, in his caption, Jonathan Bennett wrote, “He loves me.”
Well, it certainly looked like the former Celebrity Page host cared deeply about Jonathan potentially running into trouble. In the reel, he rushed in through the door yelling, “Hey!” and immediately started opening doors.
He said, “What’s happened? Where is he?” Meanwhile, the GH star was just laughing in front of the camera. Then he said, between guffaws, “Nobody’s in here.”
Fans React
In the comments section, some blue-ticked celebs liked the post a lot, and Rachael Kirkconnell, who won season 25 of The Bachelor, said, “lol i love yall so much.”
Meanwhile, General Hospital’s Britt Westbourne, Kelly Thiebaud, posted laughing emojis.
And Hallmark star Chelsea Hobbs commented, “We all need a @jaymesv in our life.”
Here are a few more reactions from the discussion:
- “Gotta love those White Knight moments.”
- “Absolute couple goals!!! The dream 😭🤣😍✨❤️🔥”
- “You are too much! But it is the best and I love it!”
- “He looks pissed, ready to hurt someone. He loves you.”
How Did Jaymes React?
Jaymes also commented on the post, and he wrote, “Mostly mad you pulled this while I was in a chacha heel.”
Well, he shouldn’t worry too much because the angle of the camera didn’t pick that up. But other followers loved the idea of it.
One person told Jaymes, “@jaymesv Daddy, you are so cute❤️🔥😍🥰”
Another person wrote, “protect ur man that’s right.”
Meanwhile, others talked about how much they love Jonathan Bennett’s sense of humour and the protective nature of his husband.
Jaymes and Jonathan tied the knot back in March 2022 in Mexico after they met when Jonathan was a guest on Celebrity Page.
These days, the duo host the iHeartRadio podcast Pridecast together, and GH fans love the way Jaymes always supports his husband with his acting career. The duo are also praised for advocating for the LGBTQ community.
