Young & Restless’ Trevor St. John Speaks Out On a Fellow Soap Star’s State of Mind
Thursday, February 9th, 2023
The CBS daytime actor gives credit where credit is due.
Before Trevor St. John made a big daytime return in the role of Tucker on The Young and the Restless, he played fan fave Victor Lord/Todd Manning on One Life to Live. The CBS actor recently applauded one of his former ABC soap peers and wanted the world to know just how much he highly recommends the work that General Hospital’s Maurice Benard (Sonny) has been doing.

“I just watched Maurice Benard on State of Mind,” St. John informed. “I highly recommend it.” Not only did he applaud Benard’s “effort to make the subject of mental health a less taboo topic for discussion” but he also gave props to “the vulnerable and courageous way in which he does it” then cheered, “Well done, Maurice!”
