Brad Maule Making a Comeback to GH?

Leslie Charleson, aka Monica Quartermaine, created quite the stir when she shared (and deleted) a picture with her former costar and GH alum, Brad Maule. Longtime fans might recall, Maule played Tony Jones from 1984 to 2006, until his character was killed off on-screen.

Apparently, Maule paid a visit to the GH set recently and Charleson couldn’t resist tweeting about it. It resulted in a flurry of speculation that Tony could be returning, possibly in flashbacks. Charleson may have thought she either spoiled the surprise or gave viewers false hope, as she deleted the post soon after.

A Mystery Woman Arrives in Port Charles
