General Hospital Spoilers: Will Ian Buchnan Return as Duke Lavery on Recurring Status Basis?

General Hospital spoilers suggest that a recent GH episode may not be the last time we see of Ian Buchanan as fan favorite Duke Lavery. Duke has been a prominent citizen of Port Charles on and off from 1986. He was presumably killed in 2015, where he died in Anna Devane’s (Finola Hughes) arms in a mob hit gone wrong. Duke’s death was very tragic since he was meeting Anna to leave town and the mob life for good.

Through the years Duke has played both sides of the crime families, but General Hospital spoilers say the one certain thing was he that loved Anna Devane and her girls. He did just about everything for them; so why shouldn’t GH fans expect to see him back; especially since his beloved Anna is now suffering from a rare disease called polycythemia vera.

General Hospital fans ask if it is possible that Duke is somehow resurrected by means as yet unknown and returns to Port Charles not only to support Anna through this, but to also meet his biological son, Dr. Griffin Munro (Matt Cohen)?

Another possibility is that Ian Buchanan could be returning as part of Griffin – similar to how TPTB handled his one day appearance during the Liv crisis? Many General Hospital fans scoffed at Olivie “Liv” St. John Jerome’s (Tonja Walker) ritual where she felt she could kill Griffin’s soul and bring Duke’s soul into Griffin’s body, as a rebirth – but still it wouldn’t be the most outrageous GH story ever told. What if the potion Griffin drank causes him to have delusions or moments where he firmly believes he is Duke, could we, as viewers, watch Griffin struggle from within, being both himself and his father?

General Hospital’s Duke Lavery has been a key player for many years and is intertwined with most of the prominent characters on the show; bringing him back on a recurring basis would certainly be a winner for fans especially since we are about to say good bye to Tracy Quartermaine, as her portrayer Jane Elliot is retiring after over 4 decades of playing the role.

There is so much for Duke to do in upcoming GH storylines according to General Hospital spoilers sources. Anna is suffering from PV. She is a strong and independent woman, but if Duke were by her side, she may be able to accept the help she truly needs to be able to live a fuller life while suffering from this disease.

Duke will finally be able to realize his life-long dream to have an heir as Griffin Munro is his son. But most of all, he will be here to celebrate that his step-daughter, Dr. Robin Scorpio Drake (Kimberly McCullough), is about to have another miracle baby.
