So it’s official! Port Charles resident teen devil, Esme, is back. The recent General Hospital episode showed Esme confronting Nikolas. And just like that, seeds have been sowed for some intense drama in the near future! But let’s back up a little for a bit! When Esme had first resurfaced and met Ryan, her devious father. She told him that she has come back with a weapon to bring down the mighty Cassadines!
We know that the fall she took off the parapet before her disappearance was because of Ava fighting with her over Nikolas. So it’s a given that in her list of all the people who have wronged her, Nikolas and Ava are on top. Now that she has returned to Port Charles on General Hospital, it’s only a matter of time that she starts to avenge herself. However, Esme may have already taken the first step towards her big plan when she met Nikolas.
General Hospital: Esme Reveals Her Pregnancy! Is It Real?
Ever since Esme fell off the parapet and disappeared from General Hospital, speculations were rife that she will resurface with a baby in tow, or at least a bump! Looks like we all have become quite well versed with how soap operas work! Our Collective speculations have hit bull’s-eye! In the latest episodes, Esme broke the big news to Nikolas that she indeed is pregnant.
But, but, but! The big questions is, is she REALLY pregnant? She is as villainous as one could get! Manipulative and treacherous to the core! Moreover, these are soap operas we are talking about. We have lost count of exactly how many times women have faked pregnancies to get their way! And devious Esme has too many pies to bake on General Hospital. So it’s very likely that she is faking the bump just to get easy access to Nikolas. After all, he is a Cassadine and with a Nik jr. in her belly she could get a free pass into the mighty Cassadine empire.
Additionally, when Ava finds out about Esme’s pregnancy and Nikolas being the baby daddy a lot more drama will follow! It could jeopardise any chance that Ava and Nikolas have at salvaging their marriage. Esme might use this to seek revenge from Ava and steal Nikolas from her.
Twitter too is exploding with fans reacting to Esme’s return with the baby bump. “Knew this would happen.” “GH should have tried something new.” Were some of the most common fan reactions to the latest General Hospital development. Fans feel this twist in the tale is rather stale, all too predictable. Here are some of the other responses.
Well, that was twitter, but, we want to know what you are thinking? Were you also expecting to see Esme return with a baby bump? And now that she has, do you think it’s real or fake? Please share your views in the comments. Meanwhile, stay tuned to the upcoming episodes of General Hospital on ABC to find out where the story heads!
