General Hospital Spoilers: The Pot Calls the Kettle Black as Carly Comes Down on Joss Over Vaughn

General Hospital spoilers report Port Charles is crackling with family drama, and this week, Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) is stirring the pot by lecturing Josslyn ‘Joss’ Jacks (Eden McCoy) about her budding romance with Vaughn (Bryce Durfee).

Fans on Facebook are fuming over Carly’s hypocrisy, as she bordered on scolding Joss for dating an older WSB agent and “competing” with Emma Scorpio Drake (Braedyn Bruner) in a non-exclusive setup, implying Joss should demand more.

Given Carly’s own wild romantic past at Joss’ age and beyond, is this the pot calling the kettle black? Will Joss heed her mom’s advice or push back?

Carly’s Lecture Sparks Fan Outrage

Carly’s attempt to school Joss on her relationship with Vaughn has fans up in arms, calling out her double standards.

At Joss’ age, Carly was tangled in messy romances with Jason Morgan (Steve Burton), Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and others, often ignoring advice, yet she’s now preaching about Vaughn’s age and his flirtations with Emma.

Fans are annoyed, pointing out Carly’s own history of non-exclusive entanglements, like her fling with Tony Jones (Brad Maule) — her stepfather! Joss, fresh off her WSB missions, bristles at the lecture—will she call out her mom’s hypocrisy or let it slide?

Joss’ Defiance Meets Carly’s Past

In a heated scene at the Metro Court, Carly cornered Joss, warning her that Vaughn’s older, secretive ways and ties to Emma could break her heart.

Joss defended her choices, hinting she’s okay with non-exclusivity for now. The fans share Carly’s doubt, and love Joss’ fire, but they’re still questioning if Carly’s projecting her own regrets.

Anna Devane (Finola Hughes), aware of Joss’ WSB role, stays quiet, while Emma might stir trouble to exploit the rift. Will Joss’ rebellion mirror Carly’s younger days, or is she carving her own path? One could argue that we can’t tell since much of Joss’ relationship with Vaughn is wrapped up in their work arrangement with the WSB.

Can Joss Outgrow Carly’s Shadow?

GH fans are loving this mother-daughter clash as Joss’ defiance against Carly’s lecture takes center stage. We know Joss has already embraced Vaughn’s complicated world, as it is her own as well, but Carly is clueless.

Still, could Carly’s warnings — hypocritical or not — sink in on some level? With Carly’s past echoing her advice, Joss’ choices could redefine their bond.
