GH Spoilers: Dex’s Sympathy For Spencer’s Loss Reveals A Troubled Past?

General Hospital (GH) spoilers tease that Dex Heller (Evan Hofer) seems to be a good guy by the way he treats and cares for Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy).

Never mind that he’s an enforcer for her former stepfather and current mob boss Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard).

As such Dex is called upon to do some pretty unsavory things, and he does them with ease.
Who is Dex really, and did a recent interaction with Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Chavez) give up a major clue about his identity?

General Hospital Spoilers – Who Is Dex Heller?

Dex appeared on the scene when Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell) hired him to ruin his father Sonny for upsetting him. Man-child Michael was mad because Sonny got amnesia and fell for a woman not his mom, Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright).

Never mind that Sonny had a valid medical reason for taking up with Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros), who failed to tell Sonny the truth about who he was. In Michael’s mind, both Nina and Sonny hurt his feelings and in turn he hired Dex to work for Sonny and take him down.

So, who is Dex Heller? That’s the million dollar question! We know very little about the man who has stolen Joss’s heart and become an integral part of Sonny’s organization.

As such he is a major player in Port Charles, but everyone around him knows very little about his background.

Here’s what he do know: Dex joined the military out of high school, and he’s estranged from a brother who bullied him.

General Hospital Spoilers – Who Are Dex Heller’s Parents?

Fans have been given no info on Dex’s parents and this empty bio has lots of possibilities. Perhaps his parents are rich and famous? Maybe they have ties to Port Charles? It could be that they’re dead.

The show has kept Dex’s identity vague so anything is possible when it comes to his past. Not too long ago fans speculated that he could be Sonny’s secret son based on his love of cooking when he cooked up a meal for the two of them based on one of Sonny’s recipes.

In recent days Dex was sympathetic to Spencer losing the chance to live with his brother Ace. He was reflective and seemed to understand how devastated Spencer was to not be able to live in the same house as Ace.

What does this mean, what light does it shed on Dex and his past? Tell us your theories GH fans!
