00:32 is famously recognized for his role as Michael Corinthos on General Hospital and has even won an

00:37 Emmy for his role. But besides his acting, he also once made the headlines when he started dating the

00:42 Y and her star, Courtney Hope, who plays Sally Spectra. The two of them dated for five years

00:53 While many believed they had married in October, that wasn't the case. Duell revealed that neither

00:57 he nor Hope had signed anything and stated they were not married or anything. Both of them moved

01:03 on and Duell went on to date Luana Lucci in 2022. Soon after, in March 2023, the couple announced

01:10 that they were expecting their first child together. But their pregnancy journey wasn't so

01:14 easy. Lucci revealed that she had a lot of complications during her 19th week and it was

01:24 boy. Many fans were eagerly waiting for the day and now it is finally here. Wednesday, August 30th

01:30 is the day Duell and his girlfriend are going to remember for the rest of their lives. Duell shared

01:35 some adorable pictures of them on his Instagram, holding the baby, and wrote, "Welcome to the world

01:40 Lil Dawson, been quite the journey, can't wait to see the great man you become. The dad is definitely

01:45 thrilled and excited to spend his life with his first born. Plus, he sure had fun clicking pictures
