Since Kristina dropped that bombshell on the ABC soap opera, ‘GH’ fans have been speculating that Professor Parker was heading to Port Charles – and everyone was dying to see what hunky actor they had cast in the role.  So, you can imagine everyone’s shock on Friday January 29th when Professor Parker requested a face-to-face meeting with Kristina Corinthos, and it turned out she was a WOMAN.  Does this mean that Kristina Corinthos is a lesbian, or bi-sexual?

The fact that Professor Parker turned out to be a woman is shocking enough – but the actress playing her is a major soap opera alum.  ‘General Hospital’ fans were thrilled to see ‘The Bold And The Beautiful‘ actress Ashley Jones arrive on the ABC soap as Professor Parker.  Jones played the part of Bridget Forrester from 2004-2015.  Before that she appeared on ‘The Young And The Restless’ as Megan Dennison.  Somehow TPTB managed to keep this major casting a total secret.  So far there is no news on how long Ashley will be sticking around Port Charles – but we can’t wait to see where this story goes!
