General Hospital star Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos) sat down with Chad Duell (Michael Corinthos) after things blew up in Port Charles, literally. Benard praised Chad for being such an incredible human. Then, he said something that caught some fans’ attention. Did he confirm rumors that Duell’s exit is only temporary? Keep reading to find out exactly what Maurice said.

Did Maurice Benard Confirm Chad Duell Exit Temporary?

Chad Duell is exiting General Hospital after nearly 15 years on the show and fans can’t get over what they did to him. Everyone watched as an explosion happened in Sonny’s penthouse. Jason ran in and put the fire out on him with a blanket.

Many have wondered if he will be coming back one day. After Duell announced last year he was leaving for personal reasons fans hoped he would change his mind.

One thing Duell did say in all of his interviews is that one never knows what’s going to happen and who knows he may be back. He said the writers wrote his ending in a way he could return down the road. At first, everyone thought he died in the fire but he’s still fighting for his life at General Hospital. It’s yet to be seen what will go down. But, he says the door was left open for him to return. Right now they have no plans to recast the character of Michael Corinthos with anyone other than Duell.

During his recent appearance on Maurice Benard’s podcast, State of Mind, there were hints that maybe fans haven’t seen the last of Chad. Benard said, “He’s gonna be missed. I hope he comes back really fast. And I think everybody does.” He then paused and said, “But not really cuz I want him to succeed. It’s a double-edged sword.”

Does what he said mean anything at all? Time will tell. Chad is set to appear again this Sunday to talk about his time on the soap.

Why Did Chad Leave?

When Chad Duell shared he was leaving his role as Michael Corinthos on General Hospital, he announced it on social media. He said,

“After many incredible years with General Hospital, I’ve decided to step away from the show. This wasn’t an easy decision for me, but it feels like the right time in my life. I’m beyond grateful to [executive producer] Frank Valentini, the cast, crew and everyone behind the scenes who have been like family to me throughout this amazing journey.”

He concluded the post by saying it’s not goodbye it’s see you later.

What do you think about Chad possibly returning? Did Maurice give a huge hint and basically confirm it?
