The General Hospital fandom is once again in full speculation mode, and it’s all thanks to James Patrick Stuart. The fan-favorite actor behind Valentin Cassadine recently left the canvas after his character was hauled off to Steinmauer Prison. But that hasn’t stopped the buzz—especially after a cryptic tweet that has left viewers wondering.

Valentin’s Exit Stirred Emotions

Valentin’s March 24 exit was emotional. He shared a heartfelt goodbye with Charlotte before disappearing into the prison system. But his final words, “Till next time,” didn’t sound like a permanent goodbye. That line instantly gave General Hospital fans hope. Many wondered: is this a pause or the end?

Now, James Patrick Stuart has added fuel to the flame with one cheeky tweet. On X (formerly Twitter), he posted a photo getting a foot massage or pedicure. The twist? The woman in the image had a nametag that read “Anna.” His caption? “Always something there to remind me. #Vanna.”

Naturally, fans erupted with emotion. One wrote, “Please don’t toy with our emotions…! 😩❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 #Vanna #GH.” Another added, “Awesome one! Anna and Valentin—I miss them!”And someone else joked, “Don’t know that #Anna would massage your feet??? LOL.” Even better? A fan teased, “The real Anna sent her there to protect you. 🤣”

More Than Just a Pedicure Pic? This wasn’t just a casual post. It was a clear nod to General Hospital, especially the beloved #Vanna pairing. Stuart knew what he was doing—and fans caught on fast. Could this be a sign that he’s coming back? Or is it just playful nostalgia?

General Hospital: Hope Still Lives in Port Charles

Even though Stuart moved to Portland and doesn’t have a contract, his exit doesn’t feel final. General Hospital introduced new characters like Jack and Sidwell, but they can’t replace Valentin’s complex charm. That tweet proves fans still crave #Vanna. And Stuart seems to enjoy teasing the audience.

General Hospital may have said goodbye to Valentin, but James Patrick Stuart’s tweet kept the flame alive. Whether he’s hinting at a return or just playing around, the fans aren’t ready to let go of #Vanna. For more on Valentin and what’s next in Port Charles, stick with Soap Opera Daily.
