General Hospital Star Genie Francis Addresses “Seeing Laura Diminished,” Defends Frank Valentini

General Hospital fans are still pretty upset about Laura Spencer’s exit from the ABC soap opera, and GH dropping Genie Francis from contract.

In the weeks following the shocking General Hospital casting news, it was a pretty hot topic on social media, and GH fans needed someone to blame – they set their sights on Executive Producer Frank Valentini.

Genie Francis has been pretty silent on the controversial casting situation, but she addressed the issue on Twitter today and made it very clear that GH fans were attacking the wrong person.  If anything, Frank Valentini was actually the reason her character was brought back to Port Charles in the first place.

Genie shared a photo of herself and Frank together to show a united front, and encouraged fans to back off of him.

If it wasn’t Frank’s doing, then who is to blame for Genie being bumped to recurring status?  Especially since she has said it was not what she wanted either?
