General Hospital Casting Surprise: Kathleen Gati Returns As Liesl Obrecht
She's Baaack!
When Rocco (Finn Carr) sent an email to Obrecht on the July 11, 2025 episode of GH after discovering that Britt (Thiebaud) gave birth to him, it was easy to assume the disgraced doctor may be returning. Now, Gati's return has been confirmed.
The actress shared with Soap Opera Digest, 'The love and loyalty expressed to me over this past year-and-a-half that I have not been on General Hospital has been overwhelming. The fans have been faithful, loyal, begging me to return, continuously asking when, oh when will I return. I am truly grateful and so happy that I can bring some story and entertainment back to them again through Obrecht! It means a lot to me. This is why I became an actor, to entertain people through story and characters.'

Obrecht hasn't been seen in Port Charles since 2023 when Britt died after being slashed by The Hook, who turned out to be Heather (Alley Mills). Fans have wondered whether Thiebaud is returning as Britt or a new character, but Gati's return as Obrecht may be a major clue.

Love From Llanview: Here's Who GH Fans Think Monica's Letter Is From
After Martin found a shocking letter addressed to Monica, General Hospital fans are certain they know who the mystery sender is. And spoiler: she's not from Port Charles. Sister, Sister At the end of the July 22 episode of GH, Martin (Michael E. Knight) discovered a letter under Drew's (Cameron Mathison) living room chair addressed to Monica (the late Leslie Charleson). It had been colored on by the kids, and when Martin read it, he seemed shocked at what he was reading. GH fans on X (formerly Twitter) were quick to theorize about the letter, and their number one suspect was One Life To Live alum Erika Slezak's upcoming character. 'Was that letter Martin read a hint of La Slezak's return to daytime?' a viewer wondered, while another questioned, 'Letter from Monica's sister Viki?' 'There have been rumors that Erika Slezak will be portraying Monica's sister in the fall so maybe it's from her?' one fan guessed, while another agreed, 'That Dear Monica letter has to be Erika Slezak's character coming to Port Charles.' It's uncertain at this time whether Slezak is coming on GH as her beloved OLTL character Viki Lord, or a new character entirely. Guesses Galore But Slezak wasn't the only viable suspect. 'Crazy out there theory,' a fan began. 'What if Drew really is Shiloh (Coby Ryan McLaughlin) and had the real Drew locked away and that letter is the real Drew reaching out to Monica?' READ THIS: Here's what's coming up this week on GH. Meanwhile, one viewer has a good guess about what they thought might happen: 'I thought Martin was going to throw out his back when he knelt down to grab a piece of paper under the chair at Drew's house and try to sue him. Instead he found a letter to Monica that the kids used as scrap paper.' Who do you think the letter is from? Drop some guesses in the comments. Believe your soap theory is on fire?
