Thankfully, he is not talking about General Hospital! But a baby orangutan that has often accompanied to the sets of GH! For those who are staring at their screens in bewilderment, let us explain. About three years ago, bang in the middle of the pandemic, Maurice’s daughter gifted him a rather unique Christmas present. A baby orangutan – a stuffed toy. The soap star fondly named it Venasa.
