General Hospital (GH) spoilers indicate that Deadline recently broke the news that Kelly Thiebaud would be returning to the ABC soap, and fans should expect to see her back on canvas this July.
While the show remains quiet about whether or not Dr. Britt Westbourne will return from the dead; fans can’t help but speculate.
After all, her name was dropped during the Friday, June 6 episode, when Cody Bell (Josh Kelly) mentioned his arrival into Port Charles was flying into the good doctor while she was in the Metro Court pool! So, is The Britch making a comeback, and if so, does that mean her mom, Liesl Obrecht (Kathleen Gati), is returning, too?
Britt Westbourne, Alive & Well?
Britt passed away a hero in 2023, when she protected a young Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) from The Hook serial killer, a.k.a. Heather Webber (Alley Mills). Britt ended up meeting her demise, and there was no one more upset about this than her mother, Liesl.
Who could blame Obrecht? There are no words to describe a parent who outlives both their children, and the poor woman not only lost her daughter, but her son, Nathan West (Ryan Paevey), as well.
Liesl was a wreck after Britt passed away for a very long time. While she did have a love story with Scotty Baldwin (Kin Shriner), after the two broke up, the very last storyline Liesl was involved in was being the miraculous bone marrow donor to her new grandniece, Willow Corinthos (Katelyn MacMullen).
If Britt Returns, Could Liesl Come Back, Too?
If GH writers can bring back Jake Webber (Hudson West) from the dead, crafting an arc to bring Britt back too would be a snap!
Still, as Liesl was so heartbroken after her daughter’s passing, there’s no way they are bringing Britt back without having her mom return for some sort of reunion, right?
Could Liesl return, along with Britt Westbourne?
