There’s another newcomer to Port Charles with Ely Pouget joining the cast of GENERAL HOSPITAL as Jeannette.

Margaux admitted that she knew her husband was mixed up with dangerous people so when he disappeared, she assumed he’d gotten himself killed. But things took an interesting turn when Sam discovered secret love letters from Joe Scully to Jeannette!
