General Hospital star Josh Kelly, who is best known for his role as Cody on the hit ABC soap, has opened up about that paternity fallout that no one saw coming. Keep reading below for everything you need to know.
General Hospital Spoilers: Josh Kelly Opens Up About That Fallout No One Saw Coming
In a new interview with Soap Opera Digest, Cody finally told his father Mac that he is his biological son. And let’s just say that the news certainly didn’t sit well with Mac at all.
That’s because it has been a secret that he has been keeping to himself for well over two years now.
Actor Josh Kelly admits that for his character, he could sense that Cody just couldn’t keep that information to himself any longer.
He put it this way, “He probably tried not to think about it, but it kept popping up. When those unavoidable thoughts just keep nagging at you and you don’t want to deal with them, but your subconscious thoughts just keep reminding you that this is an unresolved issue.”
“And it takes a special moment or a certain feeling — or a certain beverage [laughs] — to give you the courage to actually confront the problem.”
But then again, Josh says that it certainly took a long time for Cody to build up the courage to tell his biological father the truth once and for all.
He said, “First with Chase’s father, Gregory, dying, and realizing that time is finite, and Sasha kind of reminding him of what he might be able to have if he comes clean.”
