Amanda Setton Opens Up About Brook Lynn's Heart-Wrenching General Hospital Twist
Port Charles has been reeling from the dropping of a major truth bomb on General Hospital. The secret that Gio is actually the son of Dante and Brook Lynn, whom she gave up for adoption when she was a teen, has finally been revealed. Gio feels that his entire existence is a lie, and the ramifications of the secret are going to have repercussions for years to come. Amanda Setton revealed how this storyline is a huge moment in BLQ's life. Until recently, Brook Lynn didn't know the baby she gave up for adoption was a boy. When Gio revealed to everyone that he was hers and Dante's (Dominic Zamprogna) son at the Nurses' Ball, she was floored. In preparing for her character's reaction, Setton told Soap Opera Digest that she wanted to ensure she did justice to her character because, 'I wanted to give the audience and the fans this climactic moment and also serve Brook Lynn.' READ THIS: Take a dive into Brook Lynn's mindset. Being a mother and parent in real life made the storyline feel much closer to home than many others. Of Brook Lynn and the stunning revelation, Setton noted, 'This is arguably the biggest moment of her life, and by far the most emotional, to meet her child.' She was able to see how the story struck a real-world chord with her and translate those emotions to BLQ. READ THIS: Get a look at what's coming up in Port Charles. Feeling 'lucky and privileged' to play Brook Lynn, Setton revealed that going into the Nurses' Ball scenes, she lost her voice, although she didn't have a cold. 'My body knew that I didn't want to do it, that I didn't want to go there emotionally,' she explained. The actress was well aware of the emotional toll it would take on her, but refused to 'phone in' her performance. READ THIS: Check out how the 2025 Nurses' Ball performances were ranked. She was going to plow through those scenes whether her body allowed her or not. She was offered the chance to postpone those scenes until her voice returned, but she insisted that if the record times got moved, 'I won't be as in it. It just won't be as good.' Ultimately, her mantra became, 'Let's just go for it. Let's do it.' And she delivered a powerful performance that could hopefully garner her a Daytime Emmy.
