General Hospital (GH) spoilers hint at some unexpected outcomes from Spencer Cassadine’s (Nicholas Chavez) custody battle. Has Spencer truly considered this and envisioned how his life would be if Diane Miller (Carolyn Hennesy) succeeds in winning?
Naturally, Diane was eager to inform Spencer that he would likely have some difficulties in court.
Regardless of what she has done, Esme Prince (Avery Pohl) still has rights, and Nikolas Cassadine (Marcus Coloma) still has the means to take on Spencer.
Additionally, Spencer has served two terms in prison, so bear that in mind.
Furthermore, sibling custody disputes are less frequent and could not necessarily provide a long-term solution.
There may be a few factors, though, that favour Spencer.
One of them is Victor Cassadine (Charles Shaughnessy), who appears ready to turn decisively against Nikolas and who could support Spencer in his effort to take custody of Nikolas.
When the time comes, we have little doubt that Victor will be able to blackmail or bribe the appropriate court into giving Spencer complete custody.
Esme may not have a chance in a custody dispute since she is broke, especially because Nikolas may already be in jail or on the run.
We need to think about what it would imply for Spencer’s romantic life if he were to truly win this and become a single fill-in father.
Has Spencer considered the implications of this for his possible relationship with Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali)?
Trina will probe Spencer about his motivations during the week of January 23–27, according to GH spoilers, so she could ask some of the same inquiries Diane did.
Trina could think this is about getting even and fear that Spencer is trying to get custody for the wrong reasons.
There is no getting around the fact that Nikolas is a terrible dad, and depending on how the remainder of the amnesia scenario plays out, Esme might not be much better.
Whatever the case, Spencer needs to be prepared to prioritise this child and become a better dad.
Trina could worry that Spencer doesn’t understand what he’s getting into. If he wins, Spencer will have to step in as the dad, but is he really ready for that?
There is also the issue of Trina’s reaction to this. Trina will be involved in this child’s childhood if she chooses to live as a true couple with Spencer.
It’s not hard to picture Trina coming to the conclusion that she can’t act as Esme’s mother, especially given the possibility of Esme’s evil side resurfacing.
Trina could decide that everything is just too dramatic and inform Spencer that getting custody would be a deal-breaker for her.
Will Spencer be forced to choose between Trina’s future and parenting his brother or sister?
It would be fascinating to watch whether Spencer changes his plans or stays true to his desire for custody.
Keep checking back for more on the baby saga as General Hospital teasers indicate Spencer will face some challenging decisions in the upcoming weeks.
