‘General Hospital’ Fans Want This Classic Couple to Get a Second Chance

General Hospital’s Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst) finally got the girl, but is it the right girl? He seems to think she is, as Ric has been trying to get it right with ex-wife Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) for decades, but Ric has another ex-wife who might be much more suited for him, at least according to fans.

Another Shot For Ric and Alexis?

It’s been 20 years since Ric and Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) were married, but even longer since Ric and Elizabeth were married. Ric’s marriage to Elizabeth ended after she learned he’d locked a pregnant Carly in a panic room, while Ric and Alexis’ marriage ended when he slept with her adult daughter, Sam (Kelly Monaco). Needless to say, neither woman has ever been anxious to jump into a relationship with Ric again.

However, Elizabeth finally gave in and is giving Ric another chance. She doesn’t even notice that Dante (Dominic Zamrogna) has developed a crush on her. However, Cody (Josh Kelly) has noticed how well Ric and Alexis seem to be getting along lately and pointed out their banter with their daughter, Molly (Kristen Vaganos). Recently, Ric and Alexis even seemed to be flirting when planning a cowboy-themed party for Molly’s book launch. Fans took just as much notice as Cody did.

“I want them. He’s wanted Liz for so long because all he’s ever done is mess up with her,” one fan wrote on X. “He’s too focused on fixing what he broke with her. Liz needs someone, something new. Ric has more chemistry with Alexis. All that sniping back and forth they do is foreplay.”

Another fan saw the sparks and said they reminded her of yesteryear, stating, “Ok. Alexis and Ric arguing over Molly’s book launch party are the Alexis and Ric I remember from the train crash when Molly was born lol. That is the version of them that I can see getting back together.”

Other viewers love Ric most when he is with the mother of his only child, with one fan saying, “Ric has truly never been better than he was with Alexis!”

Finally, another fan can see the writing on the wall and looks forward to what happens next, writing, “Oh, yeah!!!! Ric + Alexis are DEF gonna happen !!!!! Again”
