General Hospital Recap, June 9 Episode: Michael-Willow’s Custody Battle Gets Intense, Know What’s Up With Brook Lynn

In the June 9 episode of General Hospital, tensions rose around the ongoing custody battle between Michael and Willow, while emotional goodbyes and strained family ties played out across Port Charles.

At the hospital, Drew told Ric he couldn’t let Michael and Willow reconcile. He staged a conversation, hoping Michael’s son, Wiley, would overhear that Michael didn’t want him or Amelia anymore now that the new baby was here. The emotional manipulation worked; Wiley broke down, believing his father no longer loved him.

Michael found Wiley upset, and after comforting him, he learned that Drew was behind the confusion. Furious, Michael told Kristina that Drew had crossed a line and that any chance of working things out with Willow was gone unless Drew was out of the picture.

Later, Drew denied the accusation and claimed Michael was unwell. Willow defended Drew and took the stand in court, stating Michael wasn’t the same father he once was. She claimed he prioritized work over his family and even rejected her attempt to reconcile when she flew to Germany.
