In the recent episode of General Hospital, Sasha tries to convince Cody to talk to Mac and reveal the truth about his parentage so he and Mac can bond. In a podcast segment for Daily Drama, Josh Kelly (who plays Cody Bell) spoke about why the character chose to keep the secret from his father, Mac:
"My justification for the character is, one, he honestly doesn't have a whole lot of self-worth, and he doesn't, he doesn't feel like he deserves to be happy in general. He sabotaged relationships and career and things."
The actor hopes to explore this storyline further, and hopefully, after Sasha's advice, the audience might see a Mac and Cody reunion soon.
