Itâs going to be the court battle of the year. Or should we say, Michael vs. Willow vs. Carly vs. Drew custody battle, after some conniving on the May 14, 2025 episode of General Hospital.
The Plaintiff
Diane (Carolyn Hennesy) showed up at Carlyâs (Laura Wright) bearing bad news: the custody case has been scheduled for June 2. Much earlier than anyone expected, Carly and Jason (Steve Burton) knew Michael (Chad Duell) wouldnât be better in time to attend. That was when Carly got a idea.
This was all Carlyâs doing anyway, so when she decided to stand in for Michael, it made perfect sense. As the three strategized, they realized the best way to win was to hand every damning piece of evidence from Drewâs (Cameron Mathison) wild night over to the judge.
Of course, that would only ensure Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) lost custody, as Diane pointed out that Carly may not be granted it, but Nina (Cynthia Watros) could.
The Defendant
Over at Drewâs, Willow was devastated when she was served and learned that the custody battle was on. While Nina tried reassuring her daughter, Drew called in backup in the form of Ric (Rick Hearst). As this group of winners strategized, Drew asserted that the only way to get Willow custody was to paint Michael as an absentee father.
Of course, Michael isnât absent on his own will, and Drew will do anything to eliminate Michael and anyone close to him.
As if one legal battle wasnât enough, there may be one brewing for Ric, Ava (Maura West), Kristina (Kate Mansi), and Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn). After Alexis enlisted Spinelli (Bradford Anderson) to find Ricâs car, itâs only a matter of time until she inadvertently makes things worse for her daughter.
Who do you think will end up with custody of the kids? Let us know in the comments.
