Cohen is still a bit new over at GH, he joined the ABC daytime drama in February of this year and viewers are still getting to know him. He since then has been revealed as the son of Duke Lavery [Ian Buchanan] and also the secret lover of Claudette [Bree Williamson]. Viewers can continue to catch him weekdays on ABC, so far there is no indication that his new gig will take him away from ‘GH.’
