The Same Day General Hospital’s Tristan Rogers Shares His Cancer Diagnosis, He Makes a Surprise Return as Robert
- Tristan Rogers, who plays Robert Scorpio on General Hospital, revealed he is undergoing cancer treatment, but his character recently reappeared on screen to welcome his surprise daughter Sasha and her newborn Daisy to his home in Europe.
Leave it to Robert Scorpio to keep us on our toes. The same day that portrayer Tristan Rogers disclosed via a statement that he is undergoing treatment for cancer , the General Hospital legend reappeared on screen, with the former WSB operative welcoming surprise daughter Sasha and her newborn Daisy to his home in Europe (where Michael's babymama has fled to avoid her daughter being collateral damage in a brewing Mob war — even though, yes, viewers know it's wacky Willow who's been messing with the tot).

If there's any comfort to fans of General Hospital in the apparent departure of Sofia Mattsson, it has to be that the beleaguered character is being reunited with the father that she not too long ago discovered was hers. Sure, she lost boyfriend Cody in the process — the new branch of the family tree made Sasha and Cody kissing cousins — but she got a heckuva dad to counteract the shenanigans that seem to be the stock in trade of mom Holly.
Rogers made his last appearance on the ABC soap back in November of 2024, when he skipped town with his lost love in hopes of keeping her from getting kneecapped before she could pay off her debts. The Emmy winner (for Studio City ) originated his role as 1980 came to an end — in other words, smack in the heyday of General Hospital . (See photos from that era here .)
