Tristan Rogers Battles Cancer While General Hospital Teases Britt’s Shocking Return
In the dramatic world of General Hospital, few characters have left a mark like Robert Scorpio, portrayed for decades by Australian actor Tristan Rogers. But at 79, Rogers is now facing a real-life battle that no script could prepare him for: a fight against liver cancer.
Rogers began experiencing fatigue and abdominal pain in early 2024, initially attributing it to age and the rigors of filming. However, medical scans soon revealed hepatocellular carcinoma, a serious form of liver cancer. Quietly, he continued filming while beginning treatment, including chemotherapy and targeted therapies.
In late July 2025, after months of grueling procedures, Rogers underwent a successful six-hour surgery in Los Angeles to remove the tumor. Doctors confirmed clean margins and no spread, marking a huge victory, though his recovery continues. In a social media post from his hospital bed, Rogers wrote: “Surgery down. Battle ongoing. Thanks for the love, GH family.”
While his health fight continues, Port Charles is bracing for explosive drama onscreen.

A thrilling new storyline places Josslyn Jacks and undercover partner Vaughn at the luxurious Five Poppies Resort, on a covert mission. Disguised as honeymooners, they’re investigating a criminal operation linked to the black market. But nothing prepares Josslyn for a stunning moment — a face-to-face encounter with Britt, very much alive.
According to leaks, Britt’s survival was a carefully orchestrated ruse to protect her from ongoing threats. Josslyn, caught between duty and gratitude, is torn over whether to report Britt’s existence or help keep her secret.

Back in Port Charles, tensions rise. Anna confronts Jack Brennan, furious that Josslyn was recruited into a dangerous WSB mission. But before she can take further action, she’s kidnapped on the pier, pulled into a van by an unknown assailant — possibly connected to Britt’s situation.
What’s Next
As real life and fiction collide, General Hospital delivers both emotional truth and thrilling twists. Tristan Rogers’ recovery continues to inspire fans, while the return of Britt Westbourne could redefine Port Charles forever.
