Maurice Benard from General Hospital (GH), who plays the role of Sonny Corinthos, shared the news on social media that he has another grandchild. Read on to see the little cutie pie.
A New Addition
The news that there âs a new addition to the family arrived on Facebook on January 13. In it, Maurice posted a reel and the music that played was a song by The Carpenters. Plus, he wore a Carpenters shirt that his daughter gave him.
Unfortunately, the sound wasnât good, but he either said he had a new grandson or granddaughter. However, it sounded like he meant granddaughter. Either way, ABC soap fans were delighted for him.

Then, the real-life Sonny Corinthos said, âI wanted to introduce my grand[indistinct],â adding, âher name is Mina.â Next, his camera panned to a baby with dark hair.
He said to her, âHi baby.â Then, she smiled and Grandpa said, âYou like me, donât you?â In the comments section, his caption said:
I always say life is a roller coaster. You just have to know how to ride it. So when life is good, you have to appreciate the heck out of it.
ABC Fans Were Delighted
Naturally, GH fans sent in their best wishes and congratulations. One of them wrote, âHi beautiful Mina! She is hanging on your every word, Grandpa, and the love showing on your face is priceless. Longtime fan here, I just love you Maurice Benard!â
Here are a few more responses from the discussion:
- She is beautiful! Thank you for sharing your grandchildren with us.
- She looks just like her grandpa; gorgeous.
- Love how you show the âyouâ side of you. Darling granddaughter, plus the shirt and music I like also!
- Thank you so much for sharing, this is what it is all about! Beautiful baby, Mina.
Who Welcomed A New Baby?
Interestingly, it didnât look as if Mina was a brand-new baby. Perhaps she arrived a few months ago? It is not clear which of Mauriceâs kids welcomed the baby, but there is a possibility it might be Cassidyâs child. Remember, she and Anthony Cammarata became engaged in Japan last April.
Maurice Benardâs other daughters, Cailey and Heather, raise his other three grandkids: Eloise, Tiana, and Milo. Naturally, GH fans had hoped that Cassidy would also have a baby. Still, that is just a guess. Maybe, in time, Maurice will explain more about the baby.
Of course, Mina might not be Cassidyâs child, as the only recent mention of a baby on hAnthonyâs Instagram showed his nephew, Milo. And, as far as we know, Joshua Benard, 21, doesnât yet have a baby.
