General Hospital's Nicolas Bechtel & Ryan Paevey Explain Why They Both Left the Show Years Ago

Two actors who left General Hospital years ago are opening up about what led to their exits from the long-running soap opera series.

And it seems it has to do with the fans and the negativity that some of them bring to the fandom.

Nicolas Bechtel played Spencer Cassadine back in 2013 and then returned for a guest appearance in 2020. His role was recast a year later.

Ryan Paevey played the role of Nathan West from 2013 to 2018, when the actor decided to leave the show. The character was killed off.
