Back in 2016 on “General Hospital,” using the name C.J.
Detective Nathan West (Ryan Paevy) recognized her and wanted to know why she was in Port Charles.
Maxie was shocked to learn C.J.
was not Claudette’s real name, and that Nathan was her ex-husband.
Claudette was French-Canadian, and Nathan had married her to prevent deportation.
Their marriage was subsequently annulled.
Claudette claimed to be sorry for betraying him and claimed her lover didn’t die from the gunshot.
Meanwhile, Claudette wouldn’t tell Nathan whom he had shot.
Later, she secretly vowed to get rid of Maxie.
Nathan told Claudette he was dedicated to Maxie and even ended up driving her to the airport.
Claudette was shocked to see him.
Nathan was later shocked to learn that Griffin was the man he’d shot.
Griffin then tried to uncover Claudette’s agenda, but she wouldn’t open up to him.
Claudette didn’t think she could raise the child alone, so Charlotte was living with someone trustworthy.
Maxie insisted on a paternity test, and the results came back stating that Nathan was the dad.
She then had the fertilized embryo implanted in Claudette who became the surrogate.
Claudette decided to skip town but was shocked when Valentin showed up on the plane.
Griffin attacked Valentin, believing he had actually killed Claudette.
Claudette has not been seen since then, and could eventually return to Port Charles.
