‘General Hospital’ Spoilers: Scarlett Fernandez Cast as Charlotte West – Nathan and Claudette’s Daughter Debuts October 13

New General Hospital (GH) spoilers reveal news that Scarlett Fernandez has been cast as Charlotte West and will come to Port Charles starting next week on Thursday, October 13. The adorable actress is seven years old which seems a bit older than the timeline of the story. What’s next?

Although Claudette Bolland (Bree Williamson) is scared for Charlotte’s safety, she will reluctantly agree to bring the little girl to Port Charles to meet her dad Nathan West (Ryan Paevey) after Nathan assures her that Valentin Cassadine (James Stuart) is locked up in Greece with no chance of getting out.

Of course, we all know Valentin will get out and he’s coming to Port Charles after Charlotte and Claudette. He wants revenge against Claudette for running off and ditching him because she couldn’t deal with his controlling ways, but GH spoilers hint there’s more to why Valentin is after Charlotte.

The little actress GH showrunners chose to portray Charlotte is a newcomer to showbiz. Scarlett Fernandez has had two prior roles – a TV movie called Studio City produced by Warner Brothers and starring Eric McCormack (Will & Grace) – plus a TV pilot for a series called Broken.

Since Broken is an ABC pilot, that could explain where TPTB found the kiddo. Broken is still under consideration by ABC and stars Anna Paquin (True Blood) and TR Knight (Grey’s Anatomy). Clearly, the little girl is adorable and looks a lot like Bree Williamson, so it seems a solid casting choice.

Little Charlotte’s arrival in town sparks lots of drama between Nathan and Maxie Jones (Kirsten Storms) who doesn’t want them to take on the day-to-day responsibilities of child rearing. This declaration prompted Nina Clay (Michelle Stafford) to volunteer to take the little girl into her home.

What will Claudette think about Nina’s bold offer? GH fans don’t know yet where Charlotte has been or who has been raising her, so this whole thing is pretty undefined and shady at the same time. Will Charlotte come to stay with Nina and fulfill her baby dreams?

Will Nathan push back on Maxie for rejecting his daughter rather than welcoming her into their home? After all, Nathan has always been great about Georgie, so why isn’t Maxie rolling out the welcome mat? All this seems to be setting the stage for later events to come including a possible Naxie split.

Happy birthday ride at golden hour in the desert…. @burnin101 @mikeviruet @tietie221 @stephenhailo @markelliott522

Valentin will be in town soon and it will be interesting if he discovers Charlotte, the child he was after, in the home of Nina, his passionate one-night stand that might have been more if not for his arrest. Clearly there is lots to be explored here – what do you think GH fans?
