Okay, so I saw this question popping up everywhere: “Does Robert Scorpio have cancer in real life?” I’m a huge “General Hospital” fan, so I got curious too. I mean, Robert Scorpio, played by Tristan Rogers, is a legend!
First, I did what everyone does – I hit up Google. I typed in stuff like “Tristan Rogers illness,” “Robert Scorpio health,” and “Tristan Rogers cancer.”
My Deep Dive (It Wasn’t That Deep)
The search results were kinda all over the place. There were tons of fan forums and articles about Robert Scorpio’s character on “General Hospital” having health scares, but nothing concrete about Tristan Rogers himself.
I spent like a good hour scrolling through different websites, I checked out some fan pages and even looked at Tristans personal website.
Here’s what I found (and didn’t find):
- Lots of talk about Robert Scorpio’s on-screen drama, including times when his character was sick or injured.
- Zero, and I mean zero, reliable information about Tristan Rogers having cancer.
- Some articles mentioning his age (he’s been on the show for ages!), but nothing about any current health problems.
So, from what I could gather, it seems like the answer is a big NO. I couldn’t find anything to suggest that Tristan Rogers has cancer in real life. It seems to be all confusion with his character’s storylines.
I finished my little investigation feeling pretty relieved. It’s always scary when you hear rumors like that about someone you’ve watched on TV for so long!
