Who Is Monet on General Hospital? Jordan's Sister, Explained

Quick answer: Monet Mitchell is Jordan Ashford's younger, estranged sister, and she's the newest litigator at Diane and Alexis's firm, Miller & Davis. Blythe Howard plays her. The character debuted on Sept. 23, and the sister twist landed one episode later.

If you tuned in late and wondered why a brand-new lawyer was needling Jordan about her scars, this is the catch-up. Everything below is what has aired or what the soap press has previewed. No fan theories.

Monet on General Hospital at a glance

How is Monet related to Jordan?

They're sisters, and not the warm kind. The reveal closed out the Sept. 24 episode in the Metro Court gardens. Recaps from Soap Opera Digest and Michael Fairman TV both describe the greeting as icy, with Monet taking a shot at Jordan's scars.

Monet is the younger of the two. Coverage of the reveal says they've been estranged for years. Tanisha Harper, who plays Jordan, told Soap Opera Digest that the backstory behind that split is still to come.

One detail longtime viewers will like: Michael Fairman notes this is the first time in more than 12 years that Jordan has had a relative on screen. For a character who's mostly been defined by her cases, her marriages and her son, that's a real shift.

What has Monet done so far?

She's had two episodes, and she's used both of them. The short version, in order:

• Sept. 23: Chase walks in needing a plan. He and Brook Lynn only recently adopted Phoebe, the marriage is cracking, and he wants to stay in his daughter's life. Monet takes the case. Our Wednesday preview flagged the meeting; the Wednesday recap covers how it played.
• Sept. 24: Her first legal advice is blunt: move back into the Quartermaine mansion. Then she goes to Tracy herself and makes clear a separation and custody suit is on the table if Chase is kept out. Tracy folds on the living arrangement but not on the war.
• Sept. 24, final scene: The sister reveal with Jordan.

Honest take: two episodes in, she's already the most efficient lawyer Port Charles has seen in a while. Whether she's on anybody's side but her own is a different question.

Who plays Monet on General Hospital?

Blythe Howard. General Hospital announced the casting in mid-September, with executive producer Frank Valentini teasing only that Monet had "an unexpected connection" to someone in town. Nobody outside the show guessed Jordan.

GH is Howard's first soap. Her TV credits include Yellowstone, Bel-Air, Walker, Mindhunter, Dynasty and Power Book IV: Force. In interviews after the reveal, she described Monet as a spicy part and pointed to Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction as the vibe she was playing with. Take that as a warning label.

The show hasn't said publicly whether she's on contract or recurring, so we won't guess.

What's next for Monet? (Week of Sept. 28)

Two weekly spoiler lists, Soaps.com and Daytime Soap Stop, both have Monet courting a new client on Tuesday, Sept. 29. Reports suggest that client is Curtis, whose beating in Pentonville closed out Friday's episode. That would put Monet on a case that runs straight into her sister's life, since Curtis is Jordan's ex-husband.

Jordan's week is loaded on its own. Both lists have Curtis saying something that baffles her on Wednesday, and Jordan getting life-changing news on Friday, Oct. 2. Neither says what that news is, and we're not going to fill in the blank.

New episodes air weekdays on ABC. If you're checking whether Monday's hour is new or a pre-emption, our GH schedule page is updated each week, and this streaming guide covers Hulu and the ABC app.
