General Hospital (GH) spoilers imply that it’s been a hot minute since fans have seen Kevin Collins in Port Charles, but Joey Armstrong is living his shadiest life in Fairmont Crest and is a regular on the canvas.
The ever-talented Jon Lindstrom plays both soapy roles; however, recently, he had to address something that mirrored a daytime drama storyline: rumors about his demise! More on this story, below.
Jon Linstrom Sets The Record Straight
A fan recently tagged Lindstrom on the social media platform X. In the post, they wrote, “First thing I see on YouTube when I logged on. WTF. Why are they trying to kill you, Jon Lindstrom?!?! You ain’t dead!”
The post had a photo of Lindstrom with the heading that read, “CBS Star Jon Lindstrom Dies Suddenly …” Lindstrom replied to the fan post with, “I knew I felt like something was ‘off’ today… R.I.P. me.”
Thankfully, Linstrom is alive and well; however, fake news surrounding celebrity deaths is nothing new on social media and is plaguing the web.
With that said, it was nice of Lindstrom to address the rumors and set the record straight! It’s even better to know that all is well in his world!
I knew I felt like something was “off” today… RIP me. https://t.co/Nr5UZSqyPJ

Jon Lindstrom’s Future On GH
Unfortunately, many GH fans seem to think that Kevin Collins may be “dead” as the character has not been seen in Port Charles for a long time now, despite his wife, Laura Collins (Genie Francis), still mentioning him quite a bit.
Kevin’s absence, as a recurring character, is mainly due to Linstrom playing a major role in the new CBS daytime drama, Beyond the Gates.
Linstrom plays sketchy casino owner, Joey Armstrong, and the character is pivotal in many major storylines, including an interesting romance with high-end real estate agent, Vanessa McBride (Lauren Buglioli).
Have you been watching Beyond the Gates? Comment below! Catch the soap on CBS to watch all the drama unfold in Fairmont Crest.
Meanwhile, General Hospital is on ABC, and in some areas, it broadcasts at the same time as BTG. Still, this is what PVRs are made for, so fans can absolutely enjoy both soaps … just not at the same time!
